ISTANBUL cult recipes. Pomme Larmoyer

We are very excited to collaborate with our dear friends at CHAPTER 34, an independent bookshop just round the corner from us in Shoreham by Sea. Each month they are handpicking a small curated selection for our customers at Neighbourhood Store. Every aspect of CHAPTER 34 is designed to help you discover new books, ideas, and encourage you to look beyond what you usually read. Their shelves are arranged according to themes such as ‘The Self Shelf’ and ‘Wanderlust’, so you can discover new stories, ideas and wonders. Chapter 34 stands against racism sexism, homophobia, transphobia and the oppression of all marginalised communities. They do this by carrying and promoting books by a diverse range of authors, over a diverse range of subjects. If you are in town you simply must pop in, be prepared to overstay a 'pop in' mind. The serve coffee too so get comfortable and enjoy! ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Now about this book... Istanbul Cult Recipes invites you to explore an ancient and captivating city through its cuisine - a vast gastronomic culture spanning centuries and influences, from Europe, the Middle East, Central Asia and the Mediterranean. Istanbul's long-standing love affair with food is reflected in the delicacies on offer at all hours of the day and night. The streets of the city pulse with restaurants, cafes and street vendors - each selling their version of dishes beloved throughout Turkey: addictive street food; elegant and contemporary restaurant cuisine; and the fresh, healthy dishes cooked in homes across the country. The recipes mirror this diversity. Take your pick of lively Turkish breakfasts; linger over delectable little plates of meze; try your hand at making breads and kebabs sold from the city's food carts, and master the art of making sweets such as baklava, helva and, of course, the unctuous Turkish delight. With maps highlighting some of the author's favourite food destinations, and profiles on some of the city's proprietors and chefs, let Istanbul Cult Recipes envelop you in its passion for Turkish food.
