Book Cov­er of the Week: The New Per­sian Kitchen

JBC Net­work author Louisa Shafia returns with her lat­est cook­book, The New Per­sian Kitchen (Ten Speed Press). If this one is any­thing like her last (she pub­lished the mouth­wa­ter­ing Lucid Food in 2009), you won’t be disappointed. 

Tip: I was lucky enough to take a great cook­ing class with Louisa sev­er­al years ago (and hop­ing for round two this year). If she’s vis­it­ing a city near you, it’s a must.
