Anatolia: Adventures in Turkish Cooking Kindle Edition

4.6 4.6 out of 5 stars 40 ratings

Anatolia is a richly illustrated, entertaining and informative exploration of the regional cooking culture of Turkey. Turkish-born chef Somer Sivrioglu and co-author David Dale re-imagine the traditions of Turkish cooking, presenting recipes ranging from the grand banquets of the Ottoman empire to the spicy snacks of Istanbul's street stalls. In doing so they explain their take on the classics and reveal the surrounding rituals, myths, jokes and folk wisdom of both the old and new Turkey.

More than 150 dishes are featured, and images of the recipes are complemented by specially commissioned photographs shot on location in Turkey. Feature spreads on local Turkish chefs and producers and their specialities add a fascinating layer of interest and flavour.

Product description

About the Author

Somer Sivrioglu grew up in Instanbul and moved to Sydney when he was twenty-five. He now runs the extremely popular Efendy restaurant in Balmain, where he draws on a multitude of cultural influences to recreate the food traditions of his homeland.

David Dale is an Australian political journalist, commentator on popular culture, and food and travel writer. In his earlier books, David analysed how Italian cooking charmed the world. He's convinced that 'Turkish is going to be the next international phenomenon and Somer the next Ottolenghi'.

Stunningly beautiful book. The real beauty is in the words, however. Unlike most other recipe books, this author lovingly conveys the vast beauty, history, and culture of Anatolia and the joy its people express and enjoy through food and hospitality. I was fortunate enough to live in Turkey in the mid-70s, and a piece of my heart will always belong there. Being able to create some of my favorite dishes is a terrific way to evoke great memories. My only criticism is that the font is too faint for for my middle-aged eyes. Fortunately, a magnifier (and a Kindle e-version) will solve that.

5.0 out of 5 stars A MUST HAVE BOOK FOR ALL SERIOUS COOKS
Reviewed in the United Kingdom on 25 July 2015

A truly wonderful book that offers the best of regional Turkish cuisine. It is possibly the only book you will need and covers virtually all the most famous recipes you would ever be likely to hear about or come across.
It is well written with exceptional accompanying photography and the book is a delight to go through. No one would be disappointed or feel short changed buying this and it's interesting and delicious recipes once tried, would soon become a regular item in your kitchen.
The one exception is the topic covering Kaymak (A thick creamy yogurt made from buffalo milk ) particularly the most famous Kaymak made by Pando, unfortunately in the time it took the author to write his copy, print and launch this book, Pando's no longer exists, the lease expired and the area was wanted for development and Pando at 90 years old has retired, so anyone reading this particular article and making a beeline for Pando's when next in Istanbul will be disappointed!
Apart from that, this is a must have book for anyone really interested in cooking and will become one of your most often used resource for creating fascinating recipes.
