Influenced by neighbouring cuisines such as Greek, Persian, and even Chinese, Turkish cuisine is uncomplicated yet rich in flavour. Home cooks will enjoy diverse offerings, from the more widely-known dishes like kebabs, baklava, and Turkish coffee, to the lesser-known Zeytinyagli Yer Elmasi (Jerusalem Artichokes with Vegetables), or Zebzeli Tavuklu Pilav (Chicken, Green Beans, and Rice with Saffron). There are several recipes for yogurt and yogurt-based sauces, one of Turkey's most important contributions to international cuisine. With over 180 recipes, A Taste of Turkish Cuisine incorporates fresh and healthful ingredients into delicious appetisers (mezes), soups, salads, entrees, breads, pilafs, vegetable dishes, preserves, yogurts and desserts. This cookbook also includes a brief history of Turkish cuisine, and guides to commonly used ingredients and Turkish cooking terms.
