Her regional specialities from the southeast and hometown of Antakya invite the reader to try, test and enjoy the many tastes of Turkey. This exploration of Turkey’s melting-pot reflects the warmth, sharing spirit and generosity of the country and author – as Özlem’s love for her native land and its food shine through on every page.
