Traditional Ethiopian Cuisine

This cookbook is unique. It strives to deliver the traditional flavor of Ethiopia, in the form of its distinctive cuisine while meticulously guiding the reader in moderate, yet complete instructions. Both nationally and internationally, there exists no comprehensive work on the cuisine of Ethiopia. Here, our focus is on tradition and on the native vegetables and spices that throughout the centuries have formed the basis of Ethiopian cooking. The country is rich, clear and unspoiled; therefore, the food produced is naturally organic. Throughout these pages, we take you deep into Ethiopia's healthy foods, enticing flavors and spices then show you how to authentically prepare complete dishes. With concern for varying locations and the availability of specific spices, the author has suggested compensatory substitutes which can be acquired locally yet maintain the accuracy of the dishes.
