Overview
A feast for the senses, this stunning cookbook celebrates maximalist cooking, beautiful presentation, and joyful gathering with more than 100 recipes.
Growing up in a Pakistani American household where her parents threw regular dinner parties with freshly snipped flowers and way too much food, Noreen Wasti learned to express herself and her love for others through cooking. Known in the New York food scene for her lush, layered style, Wasti creates lavish spreads and dishes as stunning as they are delicious, adorned with edible flowers, fresh herbs, and whimsical flourishes.
These recipes are a feast of beauty and bounty. Glazed, embellished, adorned. Showered with flowers and dusted with spices. Served in crystal coupes and tiny bowls, on silver platters and vintage trays. Explore these gorgeous pages to find such dishes as:
