Zariz

THE INSTANT NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLER

New York Times bestselling cookbook author Adeena Sussman offers a quick and easy (“zariz") approach to Israeli-inspired home cooking with satisfying recipes for every day.

For Adeena Sussman, the kitchen is an island of calm: A place where she can center her mind, set the rules, and create a daily haven of deliciousness through her cooking. These days, she finds herself embracing the mantra “when the going gets tough, the cooking gets easy.” Pandemics, wars, and the busy pace of a very full life have led her toward a smoother, more streamlined cooking approach embodied in the Hebrew word, zariz, or “quick.” This pared-down style doesn’t mean sacrificing the rhythms, sounds, and sensory pleasures we experience while preparing vibrant, exciting, yet simple recipes. Instead, it has led her to rely on fewer pots and pans, a more edited pantry of highly versatile ingredients to create maximum flavor, and simple, thoughtful techniques that bring meals together effortlessly--always with her signature, flavor-forward style.

Most of the recipes in this cookbook contain fewer than 12 ingredients—not including olive oil, salt, pepper, and lemons, which are staples of Adeena’s Middle Eastern & Mediterranean-inspired dishes. From comfort foods like Sunny Sheet Pan Shakshuka and Baharat-Spiced Mushroom Hummus to satisfying mains like Hachapuri Pizza and Spice-Drawer Schnitzel, Zariz will help you cook with ease, making your kitchen a place of calm, deliciousness, and joy.
