Error Reduction in Health Care : A Systems Approach to Improving Patient Safety Book

This 1962 book is subtitled “A Culinary Trip to the Land of Bible History—Syria and Lebanon”. This is a cookbook by a member of the Syrian Antiochian Orthodox Church in the United States. The recipes are from the author’s mother, who came from Syria and ended up in Ohio. As such, they are relatively easy to find ingredients for. One ingredient I have not yet found is crushed black cherry pit, or mahleb. I’m looking forward to making some anise bread when I do find it.

There are a lot of good recipes for eggplant in here, some quite easy. I just made some eggplant stew with just eggplant, onion, tomato, and chicken. The recipe calls for lamb, but it was still very good. (I also used the crockpot to start it before going to Mass.) there are a lot of lamb recipes here, and a lot of yogurt recipes.

There are also a lot of sweets that sound interesting, such as sesame pastry, syruped eggplant, candied figs, and watermelon preserves.
