In six chapters overflowing with photos of vibrantly sauced and garnished foods, self-taught cook Ghayour presents small plates, breads, salads, desserts, and other dishes. With her approachable recipes, the author dispels the notion that Persian, Turkish, Arab, and Armenian cuisines are too complicated for American home cooks. (LJ 11/15/14)
