Reviews:

A helpful resource for students linking foods to geography....this will also tempt aspiring cooks and could lead to further exploration of ethnic foods.
—Booklist/Reference Books Bulletin
...useful, practical, one-stop source guide to the world's favorite foods.
—School Library Journal
...real success.
—The Citizen
School librarians will want to keep a reference copy.... Public libraries can easily accommodate two copies.... cooks of any age will enjoy using it explore a world of new tastes.
—Wilson Library Bulletin
This is one of the most comprehensive books of its type that I have seen.
—Multicultural Education
For those interested in authentic recipes from around the world, this book contains 227 recipes from 122 countries. Special effort has been made to include as many recipes as possible from countries in Africa, the Middle East, Asia, the Caribbean, and Latin America, because recipes from these areas are not as easy to find as recipes from Europe and North America.
—The International Cookbook Revue
Your book does it all! Not only does it contain excellent global recipes, it capsulizes maps, customs, eating habits and cuisines of each culture. The recipes are easy for the students to read, and most importantly, they are delicious....It is the ultimate reference book for my course.
—Sante Fe High School

Recipes list the number of people served per dish, the ingredients--with appropriate substitutions for more exotic items--the equipment needed, and easy-to-follow directions for the preparation of dishes. A glossary is also included. Recommended for grades 4-12.
