Ibrik: The Balkan Table

Celebrate the rich culinary tradition of the Balkans with the 100 recipes of Ibrik: The Balkan Table.

From Ecaterina Paraschiv-Poirson, owner of Ibrik Kitchen in Paris, France, this cookbook draws from her Romanian and Greek heritage, offering a selection of delicious recipes that pay homage to her homeland. In Ibrik: The Balkan Table, Ecaterina revisits traditional dishes such as eggplant caviar, stuffed peppers, shwarma and kofta alongside Balkan staples like soups, stews, and fermented vegetables.

With nearly 100 recipes to prepare throughout the seasons, from mezzes to main dishes, along with drinks, breads and desserts, Ibrik: The Balkan Table will transport you to the heart of the Balkans. Including countries like Greece, Turkey, Romania, Croatia, and Hungary, the wide-range of influences are evident in dishes like dolmades with morello cherries, potato moussaka, grilled trout and Jerusalem artichokes mousseline, baked feta dip, fermented pickles, babka, and Balkan cheesecake.

Family is at the heart of Balkan cuisine, and the hearty, heart-warming dishes of Ibrik: The Balkan Table are even better when shared.
