Mediterranean Vegetarian Feasts

by Aglaia Kremezi, Penny De Los Santos

In Mediterranean Vegetarian Feasts , Aglaia Kremezi, who introduced Greek cooking to an American audience, has gone back to her roots, rediscovering the delicious, fresh, healthy, easy-to-make recipes she grew up with, like Flat Bread with Dried Figs, Spicy Cheese, and Rosemary; Santorini Favas with Braised Capers and Onions; and more.
Mediterranean Vegetarian Feasts will appeal to even the most avid meat lover with a cornucopia of 150 simple, yet abundantly flavorful, plant-based seasonal dishes. Attractive to the ever-expanding vegan and vegetarian market, as well as for fans of Mediterranean cooking, Kremezi’s arsenal of master recipes for spice, nut, and herb mixtures, sauces, jams, and pastes inspired by eastern Mediterranean and north African traditions will transform even the most humble vegetable or grain into an irresistible dish.

Great deep-dives into ingredients.

So inspiring. Though there are a handful of new-to-me ingredients here, the majority of these stunning dishes are vegetables and grains I use already in exciting new combinations. I am going to cook up a storm from this book!
