One more reason why you should have it is because you must understand Lebanese cooking, is just the gateway to regional cooking such as Syria, Palestine, and Jordan and some parts of Iraq. if you're interested in the Oriental Mesopotamian region then this book is definitely the very best to have. here's a tip, now at times this book has the miscalculated recipes. for example : it is suggested that one should use one cup of basmati rice to two and a quarter cups of water. in addition it wasn't really mentioned as to why you should wash or rinse the rice prior to cooking it. The proper way to cook basmati rice is to wash or rinse thoroughly for every one cup of basmati rice add 1.5 cups of water. but that's the only flaw or mistake I saw in the book. why should you have this book I bought three copies for three different friends that I've gifted, and they all came back with very good results. I for one a proud owner of a copy of my own. in short, you must have this book if you are collecting and or cooking Middle Eastern food especially Lebanese, The chef honestly and truthfully passed on his knowledge in good details. unfortunately I think he should go and do a second version of it a part two if you will, there are a lot more recipes that he left out. now did he do that because they are complex or did he do it for reasons of what may appeal to a Western person. however you must have this book, if you're shopping for a Middle Eastern cuisine book, most likely you're not afraid of trying new things. kudos to him, can't wait for part two. ## Frequently Bought Together - My Lebanese Cookbook: 80+ Family Favorites Made Simple - Lebanese Cuisine: The Authentic Cookbook - Julie Taboulie's Lebanese Kitchen: Authentic Recipes for Fresh and Flavorful Mediterranean Home Cooking --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.vu/products/184214820-my-lebanese-cookbook-80-family-favorites-made-simple](https://www.desertcart.vu/products/184214820-my-lebanese-cookbook-80-family-favorites-made-simple) --- *Product available on Desertcart Vanuatu* *Store origin: VU* *Last updated: 2026-05-09*
