Baladi: A Celebration of Food from Land and Sea Hardcover – October 15, 2018

Definitely recommend this for anyone interested in learning arab cuisine, also looks so pretty displayed in my kitchen.

Great book for traditional Middle Eastern recipes.

I recently purchased Balady on Amazon, and I was so delighted with it with its beautiful photos and delicious recipes that I also purchased one for a friend who loves Middle Eastern food. She also was thrilled with the book as the recipes are unique and out of the ordinary. I love that they added fish recipes -- which you don't usually find in a Middle East cookbook. The shrimp dishes look wonderful and I can't wait to try them out. This is truly a beautiful book and I recommend it to anyone that enjoys cooking mouthwatering dishes!Jeanne

Baladi Palestine needs to be a staple for all households no matter what culture you are from. I am Palestinian and could not live without eating our food daily. Unfortunately, our mothers and grandmothers cook without measurements so it’s so hard for them to teach us. Joudie’s book allows us to cook all our staple dishes with the exact recipes. My 12 year old daughter loves cooking from Baladi Palestine. We have so much fun and when we create these amazing dishes, it helps instill our traditions in our children. I’ve also purchased several of these books for friends who are not Palestinian because they love our food. They actually cook more than we do and always send me photos of their dishes. Baladi Palestine is a book you can pass through the generations. One of our favorite dishes is Muttabal Kousa & Fayza’s Idreh/ Ruz Madfoun and for dessert we love Hilbeh. This book is not just a recipe book; it’s a history book with recipes and love. This book is truly needed for everyone who wants to explore our beautiful history and for all those who love our food. If you are a foodie, get this book ASAP.

My sister and I went to Joudie’s superclub in London and fell in love with her and her recipes. We bought the first book right away! When the second book came out I purchased three copies. One for myself and two for my family.Her recipes are delicious AND accurate to how it’s supposed to be done. With middle eastern food being popular right now it’s hard to find real recipes. Here they are! Her books showcase a delicious truth. Palestine is a beautiful country with a lot of history; especially with food. Joudie displays everything perfectly about Palestine and the Middle East in both books.I definitely recommend purchasing both editions of her books. If you’re ever in London go check out her superclub too.Much love, chef, and I look forward to the next book and superclub.

This book is a beautiful homage to our Palestine. The vibrant photographs are breathtaking. The recipes are classic and easy to follow, which is why I owe both books by the author Joudie Kalla.

Each page in this cookbook is a vibrant and beautiful work of art. From the photography to the authentic recipes representing so many cities and people within Palestine, I continue to pick up the book and use its recipes. Not only is the book beautiful, the recipes are delicious and wholesome. The author, Joudie Kalla is true to her identity and is a wonderful author...you can feel her passion for Palestine as you read through Baladi's pages. Super happy that I picked up this book and I also highly recommend her first book Palestine on Plate!

I have both Joudie's cookbooks, Palestine on a Plate, and now, Baladi. Palestine on a Plate is hands down, my favorite Palestinian cookbook.The first thing you will notice is how beautiful this cookbook is--the pictures, the details, and the recipes! I have spent 15 years in the Middle East with Palestinian refugees. Joudie's recipes are legit Palestinian and delicious! They remind me of many hours spend in Palestinian homes over Palestinian meals. Such wonderful memories!Her books are such beautiful way to honor Palestinian culture, heritage, and food. Baladi is a treasure and must have for anyone who loves food and culture!

Heartwarming stories and delicious recipes! Highly recommended
