I received this book just a few days ago in the mail and there is one thing to say: I was not expecting it to be that big! It is an incredibly pretty and cute book about food around the world because it tells you a little bit of history about each country, talks about their main foods and dishes, and gives two or three recipes, a mix of sweet and savoury. The book is very beautifully illustrated: I skimmed through it but I have definitely look at the recipes. As a matter of fact, my sister and I have decided to try one or two recipes every week, and for this week we have already tried making milk barfi, an Indian sweet, and we could not get enough of it. We are also trying the sweet couscous later this week.
The recipes are written simply, with easy to follow directions and the ingredients are clearly given with illustrations as well. Definitely a good gift for a foodie, or for a family.
