How about letting that fish soak in red grape juice before supper. Maybe try some chicken cooked in rose water syrup...or perhaps use some of those pomegranates you've seen at the supermarket but never knew what to do with them. In this section, you'll find a number of authentic recipes from ancient times, straight out of pages of the Annals of the Caliph's Kitchens, the earliest known Arabic cookbook. So, if you're feeling adventurous and fancy a journey back in time to 10th-century Baghdad, step into your mind's kitchen and let the exotic aromas, colors and tastes of these recipes treat you to a most unique culinary experience!
