Mediterranea

Mediterranean cuisine is revered around the world, its rich culinary legacy kept alive in the kitchens of matriarchs who’ve perfected these dishes over countless generations. With recipes and location photography from France, Greece, Italy and Spain, as well as the Levant, North Africa and the Balkans, this book is a celebration of the Mediterranean lifestyle, as well as its diverse food offering.

In this book, journalist Anastasia Miari continues her granny cooking odyssey across the entire Mediterranean basin to collect wisdoms and recipes from the grandmothers who hold the secrets to its cuisine in their time-wisened hands.

Dishes such as Sicilian Citron Salad, Greek spinach and wild herb risotto, Tunisian harissa-spiced carrot dip, best-ever Italian Lasagne and Spanish Lemon Tart are all served with fascinating stories from characterful grandmothers. A book full of age-old recipes and wisdoms that only come with a life well lived. As visually engaging as it is mesmerising and heart-warming, Mediterranea is a true portrait of a beloved food culture, and the women that have shaped it.
