Editorial Reviews

Review

“What moves me most about In Bibi’s Kitchen is Hawa Hassan’s connection with these admirable women whose cooking traditions serve their families and help define their communities at home and abroad. I am thankful to see their faces, to meet them in their own words, and to know them and their diverse cultures far beyond the stifling generalities that America so often wields to conflate African people. This book illustrates what the wisest among us have known all along: The seat of power in food—its soul and expertise—has always begun at home, at the hands of skilled women in their kitchens.”—Osayi Endolyn, James Beard Award–winning writer

In Bibi’s Kitchen is rooted in tradition and reverence, but carries forth its stories with an urgency and energy that feels brand new. The book’s tenderly reported interviews and East African recipes shine a light on a group who must be seen, must be heard from. Of course we all need more bibis in our lives. And we need the ones in these pages more now than ever. In Bibi’s Kitchen is an inimitable accomplishment and an essential read that will enrich kitchens and souls everywhere it lands.”—Howie Kahn, New York Times bestselling author, James Beard Award winner, and host of Take Away Only

I can cut back on my Ethiopian restaurant budget

I can cut back on my Ethiopian restaurant budget
Okay, so I actually bought this book and cooked several of the recipes [side-eyes other reviewers].Also, I know this sounds awful, but I skipped the stories and went straight to the recipes. I appreciate that the focus was on homecooking and the detailed ingredient listing and description. Now I can now cut down on going to my local Ethiopian joints.- Berebere: amazing spice mix; added a bit of cayenne and garlic for extra spice/umami.- Doro wat. This was seriously legit. It was exactly as you’d get in the restaurants and the cooking directions were spot-on.- Stewed plantain with prawn. Good but I had to stew the plantains for much longer than 15 min as directed. I ended up having to dig the shrimp back out and set them aside while the greenish plantains needed about double the time (30 min) to soften.Looking forward to continuing through this book... recommended.

Reviewed in the United Kingdom on July 21, 2022
I don't usually bother to write reviews but this one is so good I just have to!! I have so far made the Shaah Cadays (Somalian spiced tea), stewed spinach (this one is Eritrean, not certain on the exact name), Doro Wat (Eritrean stewed chicken in spices with egg) and Digaag Qumbe (Somalian chicken curry - served with banana). All of them have not disappointed and my entire family - very hard to please, my mum is a trained chef who has eaten and cooked food from many cultures - has enjoyed all of them thoroughly. I have bookmarked so many others to try and look forward to sampling those too. So many recipes in this book look promising and each flavour from the recipes I've tried so far has been unique.

- Dietary requirements: There is a range of different types of food this makes - plenty of gluten free, dairy free or vegetarian recipes too. Obviously if you are vegan there will be many dishes you can't make but there is a substantial amount to please mostly everyone, even those with dietary requirements. A lot of this food is also healthy, full of veggies, spices, grains etc.
Difficulty - I have not had much difficulty with any of them either, I think this is a book which is good for cooks from every level of expertise. Instructions are clear to follow. I think most people pressed for time should be able to make most of the recipes - they did not take me tremendously long. Many are ones you put into a pot and can leave alone for a good hour whilst you do something else too.
Creative Process - The photos in this book are beautifully taken. I love the centre of the African women who provided these recipes, that we get to see them and hear from them through the interview and photos. I also like that one of the authors is Somalian so we know it is coming from someone who has experience of East African culture.

I recommend for anyone, both those who are familiar with the cuisine and those who want to try something new!
