Drawing upon the gastronomic heritages of Spain, Portugal, Italy, Greece, and Turkey, Goldstein has amassed an array of unique recipes and historical info. The fusion of cultures is evident in the inventiveness of dishes ranging from Poached Fish with Walnut Sauce, or Almond Sauce and Eggplant Rolls with Tomato Sauce, to Roast Chicken with Apples and Pomegranate, and Saffron Rice Pudding. Evocative photos and lively folkloric motifs join to make this book a treasure. “A beautiful voyage into culinary history as well as a compilation of superbly satisfying dishes.”
