A New
Adventure in an Ancient Cuisine...

Sally Elias Hanna is a first-generation
Egyptian-American raised in
Florida. She is a pediatrician but when she’s not practicing
medicine she is busy baking baklava and other Egyptian desserts
for everyone she
knows.
Sally has spent most of her life collecting and perfecting the
recipes of her
cultural heritage. She does this for the sake of her
own family, for other
Egyptian-Americans who wish to continue the
traditions of their ancestors and, more importantly,
for all those
who have an interest in exotic and unfamiliar cuisines.
This collection
includes 135 recipes which reflect the culinary
influences of thousands of years of Egyptian
history. From the
reign of the pharaohs to the occupation of the British, many have
contributed to Egyptian cuisine as it is known today. Some of the
recipes included
are pita bread, moloukheyah, falafel and of
course, stuffed grape leaves. Also, you will
find many vegetarian
recipes which are appropriate for the Coptic, or Egyptian, Orthodox
periods of fasting. These vegetarian recipes are simultaneously
suitable for those
following a strict vegan diet. Along with detailed
preparation instructions you will find
nutrition facts, food history
and Sally’s personal anecdotes.
Sally and her husband, Ramy,
live in Orlando, Florida and have one
child.
