5.0 out of 5 stars Rockin' the Kasbah, May 17 2004
By Erica Khamari "eschue1" (Glen Burnie, MD United States) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
Cooking at the Kasbah by Kitty Morse is one of my favorite Morroccan/North African cook books. This book has deliciously wonderful recipes such as K'seksoo Beïdaoui (Couscous Casablanca style) and Briouats, not to mention several tangine recipes. The photography in this book is excellent and Morse gives good information about the cuisine and to some extent culture of Morocco. I loved the section on the Moroccan Kitchen which details a list of certain ingredients that make the cuisine so unique.

Morse breaks down the recipes into the following sections: Basic recipes; Soups and salads; Savory pastries and breads: meat, poultry, fish and vegetable dishes; Couscous; and Beverages and Desserts. Out of all of these, the first section on basic recipes I found to be important. This section includes some recipes of ingredients to other recipes throughout the book, i.e. preserved lemons.

Overall I definitely recommend thus cook book to all cooks that what to try they hands at cooking Moroccan food.

5.0 out of 5 stars excellent cookbook for an advanced cook, Jul 17 2002
By noname (Ann Arbor, MI) - See all my reviews
For cooks who really know their stuff, and love making spectacular and complex meals, this is a great resource. This book enables me to lay out a phenomenal spread that amazes and delights my friends. There are a few very simple recipes as well, which make creating a full meal quite feasible in a normal kitchen.

4.0 out of 5 stars A quick and fun trip to a Moroccan kitchen, May 25 2002
By Catherine S. Vodrey (East Liverpool, Ohio United States) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
Even before I opened it, I liked "Cooking at the Kasbah." This is a crash course in Moroccan cooking--a subject that I wouldn't have said interested me particularly, but which is made very inviting by author Kitty Morse.

Listen and learn from just one of the fascinating tidbits within: "Smen, an aged butter similar to Asian ghee, is a prized flavoring ingredient in Moroccan dishes. Berber farmers in southern Morocco bury a tightly-sealed pot of smen on the day of a daughter's birth, unearthing it years later to flavor the couscous served on her wedding day."

The recipes are surprisingly easy and well-thought-out, although the use of a bigger typeface would have been a good idea. Laurie Smith's sumptuous photographs are especially to be commended. Using a lens which seems to have perhaps been coated in honey, she manages to impart a golden, glowing, richly colored look to every dish she shot for this book. "Cooking at the Kasbah" would not have been nearly as wonderful without Smith's photographic contributions.
