By Nita Gill
I employed this book to support invent a very successful Moroccan dinner party. I used 9 recipes from this book. The Lamb Marrekesh Stew, Tomato and Eggplant Salad, Dates with Almond paste and particularly the Chicken B’stila were EXELLENT! The instructions were clear and I liked that Kitty Morse suggests how far in advance the dishes may be made and which ones are freezable.

There was a great deal of data in regards to Moroccan dining to aid me make the dinner more authentic. We washed our hands at the table with orange blossom scented water and ate with our fingers. Our guests LOVED it.

Kitty has included a list of suppliers which I found very useful. I was even competent to order Moroccan wine and beer from an importer on her list.

I hoghly commend this book. It is the basi book I have ever felt motivated to rate. It is that good!

authentic and outstanding recipes!
By hsianghicham
My husband is a Moroccan and I am a Taiwanese. I love Moroccan feed and always want to learn how to make those delicious dishes my mother-in-law made. When I purchased this book, my husband and his brother thought the recipes must be westernized. After they tasted my Briouats(shrimp and ground beef) and B’stilla (seafood and chicken), they changed their minds. Most recipes are authentic and easy to follow. It’s a great book. I love it!

Fascinating the history of her family in Morocca and their long-term dedication to stay there and bestow to the preservation of the architecture and culture. Passed on was Kitty’s love for the humans and their food.

What attracts me and just might you also is the seductive use of fragrant spices, herbs and dried fruit in wonderful, delectable dishes such as: Stuffed Meatballs with Dried Sweet Onion Sauce, Tangine of Chicken with Preserved Lemons and Artichoke Hearts, Briouats of Shrimp and Chinese Rice Vermicelli, Chicken B’stilla (the best! cinammon laced chicken filling in razor thin pastry, here made of phyllo), or the Spiced Tomato and Honey Coulis, or the Sweet Cinnamon Couscous with Dried Fruit.

Worth the inclusion into the venturesome gourmet’s repoirtoire. A delight to thumb through and to cook from.
