Soup for Syria
Recipes to Celebrate Our Shared Humanity
The world has failed Syria’s refugees and some of the world’s wealthiest countries have turned their backs on this humanitarian disaster. Syria’s neighbours—Lebanon, Jordan, Turkey and Iraq—have together absorbed more than 3.8 million refugees. The need for food relief is great and growing.
Acclaimed chefs and cookbook authors from all corners of the world have come together to help food relief efforts to alleviate the suffering of Syrian refugees. Each has contributed a recipe to this beautifully illustrated cookbook of delicious soups. Contributors include: Joe Barza, Mark Bittman, Anthony Bourdain, Sally Butcher, Alexis Couquelet, Aglaia Kremenzi, Carolyn Kumpe, Greg Malouf, Yotam Ottolenghi, Claudia Roden, Ana Sortun, Sami Tamimi, Alice Waters, Paula Wolfert, and many others.
Profits from the sale of this cookbook will be donated to help fund food relief efforts to Syrian refugees.
