The Best Cookbooks of Spring 2025, According to Eater Editors | Eater

"Located in Bay Ridge, Brooklyn, the mother-and-daughter team bring Palestinian home cooking into a generous, cross-cultural restaurant context with dishes like lamb kibbeh, cheesy sugary kanafeh, and a celebrated fried cauliflower steak. The expanded cookbook edition traces the author’s upbringing in Nazareth and migration to Brooklyn, and its headnotes contain practical, culinary guidance—how to ask a butcher to process a lamb leg and which types of onions work best for Palestinian couscous—alongside comforting weekday and brunch recipes (including a creamy, gently spiced meat-and-egg dish the author remembers her father making on Saturday mornings). The book and kitchen emphasize hospitality, technique, and community-building as much as individual recipes." - Rebecca Flint Marx
