Rhapsody of flavors
A fusion of Mediterranean Israeli and Mexican culture and culinary tradition
Eating Healthy
Who said healthy food is not tasty? Eating healthy does not equal eating dull and boring. Based on this premise, the recipes in this book have been adapted to todays preferences and generational shifts, offering a new approach in which you can cook smartly without compromising flavor.
People used to say, eat anything you want and put on weight without guilt. These days, however, people are more educated when it comes to healthy habits and there is growing awareness about eating a diet lower in fat, sugar, and calories.
Variations
One of the strong appeals of this book is what the author calls Variations. Starting from a basic recipe, a variety of dishes can be created by simply replacing a few ingredients, opening a broad range of possibilities to let your imagination soar and customize the recipes based on your personal taste. The same principle applies to creating non-dairy, vegetarian, and gluten-free dishes.
