“A rare and fascinating insight into an ancient and delicious cuisine. This is the best sort of cookbook—with time-honoured recipes from the heart of a home.” —Nigel Slater “Grants anyone the opportunity to enjoy over 4,000 years of rich culinary history in their very own kitchen.” —Newsweek “A culinary delight”—Midwest Book Review “A definite must-try” —Booklist Discover the oldest, most authentic cuisine in the world in this unique cookbook that explores the basis of all cuisines in the Middle East. From the world's oldest recorded cuneiform recipes, some 4,000 years ago, there is a straight line to the kitchen of Smuni Turan. Her recipes have been collected by her son in this cookbook. The Oldest Kitchen in the World describes both the oldest cuisine in the world and the culture of the Assyrians. Now scattered all over the world, they all still speak dialects of Aramaic, and more importantly: they still cook the dishes that all Middle Eastern kitchens are indebted to.
