This is supposed to be recipes for ancient Egyptian food, but most of the recipes seem to be "traditional" modern Egyptian food, including some ingredient such as chili peppers and tabasco sauce which are definitely not ancient Egyptian. I have no actually tried the recipes as given in the book, though I have eaten some of the traditional dishes included such as baba ghanjouj and hummas, both of which I like.

The great River Nile was the life staff of the Ancient Egyptians. Once a year it flooded its banks, depositing nutrient-rich soil and making Egypt one of the most fertile regions on Earth. As a result, the Egyptians enjoyed a wholesome diet. This cookbook recreates the flavours of Ancient Egypt with 35 recipes pocket loaves and dried fig and apricot jam, and fish with Tarator sauce.
