Very Good Salads

About this item

Very Good Salads is filled with more than fifty Middle Eastern and Mediterranean-inspired recipes that showcase the best of the season's produce. From Shuki Rosenboim and Louisa Allan, the team behind cult-favorite restaurant Very Good Falafel in Melbourne, Australia, this cookbook includes veggie-filled plates, salads, dips, pita, and pickles, alongside their beloved falafel recipe. Each dish makes use of the whole vegetable, with classic and less-expected pairings such as watermelon salad with za’atar, radish, and fried pita; or roasted leek with pomegranate, walnuts, mint, and lemon zest; as well as larger offerings such as sweet potato and harissa gratin and stuffed tomatoes with saffron, rice, and mint. In addition, the book shares recipes for traditional dips and a flawless pita bread recipe to stuff or serve alongside salads and share plates. It’s simple, classic fare but food that has earned Shuki and Louisa a place in Melbourne restaurant royalty. Th
