This is supposed to be recipes for ancient Egyptian food, but most of the recipes seem to be "traditional" modern Egyptian food, including some ingredient such as chili peppers and tabasco sauce which are definitely not ancient Egyptian. I have no actually tried the recipes as given in the book, though I have eaten some of the traditional dishes included such as baba ghanjouj and hummas, both of which I like.

For those (like me) who always tried to imagine the meals from Dickens or Austin, this is a combination cooking/history book with some fantastic pictures. And, yes, the recipes are "do-able"

Recipes are short and not complicated and are designed to encourage you to cook and experiment on your own.

Interesting prose precedes the recipe portion of this book. This includes information on the ingredients as they were at the time and what to use to approximate them today. The general format for most recipes is a quote, followed by a period recipe (including the source) and a modern redaction. It is necessary, however, to compare the original recipes with the modern versions. On a test page, I quickly see things like the original 20 eggs being reduced to 12 in the modern version, with no reduction in the number of anchovies. also, pounded pistachios mysteriously become chopped pistachios; such things may make important differences in the results.

The SCA has no visible comments on this book.
