Book Description
Ramadan, which will begin in the United States on April 12 this year, is the Islamic holy month of fasting from sunrise to sunset. Before dawn, there is a meal called sahur, which typically consists of foods that will sustain one throughout the day. After sundown is a meal called iftar, often a feast with a full-course meal of soup, salads, appetizers, main course, and, of course, sweets. While this is the norm, some observers eat lightly for iftar and enjoy a larger meal at sahur. In some communities, Ramadan meals have become lavish feasts, though more modest meals are also customary. In many cultures, once the sun has set, breaking the fast begins with a few sips of water and some dates or fresh fruit. This book will provide healthy meals, from a traditional and modern-day perspective, with special and easy-to-find ingredients.
