Numerous color photographs show not only the food but the markets, the people, and the daily life of the place. Sturdy construction and high-quality paper make it possible to lay the book flat on a counter and it open to the desired page, without it snapping closed. . . . an inviting glimpse into the life and culture of a far-away country, and a good introduction to many fresh, flavorful, and healthy dishes."--<em></em><strong><em>Foreword Reviews</em></strong><em><p></p></em><br>"Accessible and delightful."<strong></strong><strong><em>Portland Book Review</em></strong><strong><p></p></strong><br>"The photos of the people and markets of Egypt draw us in to a beautiful country that's rich in culture. The book has a great feel--a daughter wanting to capture memories of her mother and her food, in order to share it with the rest of the world. We are grateful she did."--<strong>Jenny Hartin, </strong> <strong></strong><strong><em>Tastebook</em></strong><strong><p></p></strong><br>"The best Egyptian cookbook I have ever come across. . . . Dyna gives us more than a taste of Egypt, she shares with us her genuine passion for food and she entices us to discover or re-discover Egyptian cooking."--<strong>Lisa Kaaki, </strong><strong><em>Arab News</em></strong><strong><p></p></strong><br>"Dyna Eldaief's <em>The Taste of Egypt</em> is more than just a collection of recipes and pretty pictures. There's so much of the Egyptian-Australian food blogger's experience in there that it's almost a culinary journal, featuring tips and precious tidbits about Egyptian homecooking and food traditions."<strong>Noha Mohamed, </strong><strong><em>Egypt Today</em></strong><strong><p></p></strong><br><br><p/><br></br><p><b> About the Author </b></p></br></br><br>Dyna Eldaief was discovered by the Middle East edition of the reality television cooking show, "The Taste," after she began to blog and post clips on YouTube about her mother's recipes. She continues her passion for Middle Eastern cuisine by maintaining her blog and giving cooking classes. She lives in Melbourne with her husband and three children.<br>
