 cookbook: Bahari by Dina Maki\n\n\n\nBahari\, meaning "ocean" in Swahili\, 
 is a culinary exploration of the rich flavors and history of Omani 
 cuisine\, a food culture shaped by boundless coastlines and complex 
 maritime history\, with origins and influences spanning Pakistan\, Iran\, 
 India\, the Swahili coast\, and Portugal.\n\nIn this distinctive cookbook\, 
 Dina Macki travels across Oman and Zanzibar\, unearthing regional 
 delicacies and recreating the food of her heritage. With more than 100 
 recipes for meat\, fish\, vegetables\, homemade breads and dips\, 
 desserts\, and drinks\, Macki invites us into her kitchen\, showing us how 
 to create exquisite Omani dishes at home. Tapping into the stories behind 
 the recipes and ingredients\, Macki brings a fresh perspective in nuanced 
 essays on migration and identity\, exploring how food connects us to our 
 past and our communities.\n\nCombining personal essays and contemporary 
 twists on traditional recipes\, Bahari takes us on a journey through the 
 flavors of Oman\, in a tale that is as fascinating as it is 
 delicious.\n\nHow to Join:\n\nIt's as easy as 1\, 2\, 3...\n1. Register
