Reem Kassis is a cook and a writer. Her love of
food stems from an upbringing in a family revered
for its cooks. From a very young age, she spent
weekends in her grandmothers', mother's, and
aunts' kitchens observing, learning, and soaking
up everything there was to know about Palestinian
cooking.
With The Palestinian Table, Reem Kassis gracefully demonstrates the power of food to transcend the political divisions that are, too often, all we know of a place like Palestine. Reading and cooking from this essential book--a thoughtful collection of great recipes, historical and cultural insights, and beautiful photographs--will move you closer to understanding this complex, fascinating part of the world. - Anthony Bourdain
