Jerusalem, A Cookbook: 1 "14

 My sweet son-in-law David McClellan gave me the "Jerusalem" cookbook as a belated birthday gift.  Bruce and I read it on the flight home. In Jerusalem, Yotam Ottolenghi and Sami Tamimi explore  the vibrant cuisine of their home city—with its diverse Muslim, Jewish, and Christian communities. Both men were born in Jerusalem in the same year—Tamimi on the Arab east side and Ottolenghi in the Jewish west. This stunning cookbook offers 120 recipes from their unique cross-cultural perspective, from inventive vegetable dishes to sweet, rich desserts.  Most are gluten free.  We decided to test every recipe in it.
