Description: "Sufi Cuisine features over one hundred sumptuous recipes inspired by the teachings of Sufism, alongside illustrations and anecdotes surrounding the preparation of each dish." "The eating and cooking of food is intrinsically connected to Sufi religious practices, and the truly inspiring array of dishes here illustrates this beautifully. From chick pea soup and griddle cheese to swordfish casserole and sweet spinach, with desserts such as preserved rose petals and almond halvah, as well as Turkish coffee, these recipes offer the ideal introduction to the art of Sufi cooking."--Jacket.
