 Excellent entry to Moroccan cooking July 27, 2007
1 out of 1 found this review helpful
I shipped back two cooking tagines from Morocco for grandchildren getting married this year, and wanted to include a cookbook. Morse's colorful photos, interesting text and good, easy-to-follow authentic recipes were just the ticket. I even bought one for myself.

This is a great book. It's organized perfectly: observation and notes on the region, notes on the cuisine, definitions of the basic ingredients and basic techniques. There are even basic recipes for the staples, such as preserved lemons. There are menues to help you with choosing which dishes pair best.
The recipes that follow are varied -- soups and salads, pastries and breads, meat, poultry, fish and veggies, couscous, and beverages and desserts. All are easy to follow. There are beautiful pictures of many of the recipes.
This is a wonderful book, good for any Moroccan cuisine enthusiast.

My husband is a Moroccan and I am a Taiwanese. I love Moroccan food and always want to learn how to make those delicious dishes my mother-in-law made. When I bought 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!

Cooking at the Kasbah by Kitty Morse is one of my favorite Morroccan/North African cook books. This book has deliciously wonderful recipes such as K'seksoo Beidaoui (Couscous Casablanca style) and Briouats, not to mention several tangine recipes. The photography in this book is excellent and Morse gives good information about the cuisine and to some extent culture of Morocco. I loved the section on the Moroccan Kitchen which details a list of certain ingredients that make the cuisine so unique. Morse breaks down the recipes into the following sections: Basic recipes; Soups and salads; Savory pastries and breads: meat, poultry, fish and vegetable dishes; Couscous; and Beverages and Desserts. Out of all of these, the first section on basic recipes I found to be important. This section includes some recipes of ingredients to other recipes throughout the book, i.e. preserved lemons. Overall I definitely recommend thus cook book to all cooks that what to try they hands at cooking Moroccan food.
