About the book
The Lebanese Cookbook is the most comprehensive collection of authentic Lebanese recipes, written by Salma Hage, one of the region’s most experienced ambassadors of home-cooked food. With 500 recipes, the book presents the full breadth of Lebanon’s culinary range — from light mezze and salads to hearty main courses and sweet desserts.
Lebanese cuisine is known for its fresh flavours, fragrant spices, and balanced combination of textures, shaped by both the Mediterranean climate and influences from across the Middle East.
Language: English
The recipes span:
- Classic mezze, hummus, tabbouleh, and baba ganoush
- Grilled dishes with lamb, chicken, and fish
- Hearty stews, rice dishes, and vegetarian specialities
- Desserts and sweet pastries with honey, nuts, and rose petals
- Refreshing drinks and traditional syrups
The book is a new edition of the classic The Lebanese Kitchen and serves as a foundational guide to Lebanese cooking, for both professional chefs and food enthusiasts. The recipes are developed for the home kitchen, yet retain the authentic flavour profile that makes Lebanese cuisine one of the Middle East’s most acclaimed.
The Lebanese Cookbook also describes Lebanon’s geographical and cultural food traditions — from the coast along the Mediterranean to the mountainous areas in the north — and shows how ingredients and recipes are tied to seasons and regions.
