Date and Chami (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9781989875209)

In the last few decades, the city of Dubai has gained unparallel global attention as a hub for trade, tourism, and travel. Its golden sand dunes, miles-long beaches, record breaking skyscrapers, and glistering shopping malls have become unmissable icons of the city. However, the city's local cuisine that was eaten by its residents of traders, pearl divers and fishers ages ago and is still enjoyed to this day by their descendants is little beknown to the world. In Date and Chami, the author takes you in a journey through the delicacies of the original Dubai cuisine, the one that her ancestors had eaten, that she enjoyed with her parents in the sixties and seventies Dubai and that she still cooks for her millennial children who grew up in a more metropolitan version of the city. If words like Balaleet, Khameer, Ursiya, or even the title of this book " Chami" sound alien to you, or if ingredients such as rosewater, cardamom, loumi, and saffron spark your curiosity, then this beautiful book would be the best addition to your cookery book collection. Delight yourself and your family, wow your guests, and explore the nooks and crannies of a whole new cuisine with "Date and Chami".
