Overview
A culinary exploration of the Mediterranean, Middle East and North Africa
'A glorious and magical feast for the senses' - Claudia Roden
In Crazy Water, Pickled Lemons, Diana Henry has gathered together dishes that combine flavors in ways long forgotten - or not yet discovered - in many Western kitchens.
