Samantha Ferraro is a food blogger whose flavour profile is rooted in her family’s Mediterranean heritage, spanning Israeli/Jewish foods, Middle Eastern, Italian and more. In The Weeknight Mediterranean Kitchen, she puts a modern spin on the most delicious dishes she grew up eating, making them accessible for a Western audience.

The recipes cover a wide range of options - from fast and easy weeknight staples like Turkish White Bean Soup with Herbs or Kofte Meatballs Over Charred Spicy Eggplant, to incredibly flavourful entrees that will impress your family or dinner guests, such as Lemony Chicken Shwarma, Fennel Fattoush Salad with Pistachio and Mint, Lentil Falafel and even special desserts like Saffron and Rose Crème Brulee. Samantha expertly puts a modern spin on traditions, making the dishes come to life and feel new.
