The authors described the book as a "beautiful artefact and a keepsake of all that is best about Syria", and a portion of the profits from the book will go towards humanitarian relief charity the Hands Up Foundation. Surprising dishes, all made from "familiar" ingredients, include hot yoghurt soup with turmeric and cherry meatballs. Its authors Dina Mousawi and Itab Azzam (pictured) throw a spotlight on what the publisher hails "one of the world’s greatest food cultures". The collection is derived from time the authors spent with Syrian refugees in Lebanon while working on a theatre project, where they spent months cooking with the women, learning their recipes and listening to their stories of home. Weidenfeld & Nicolson is publishing Syria: Recipes from Home to help support artistic projects with Syrian women refugees.
