"A lavish volume on hummus. Different renditions of hummus, appealing preparations like a chicken and chickpea casserole and Yemeni spiced falafel, and a history of the chickpea are strewn throughout as the book explores the hummus route, with contributions from writers like Claudia Roden." (The New York Times)★★★★★

"A beautiful new coffee table book is dedicated to the holiest of Israel's street foods."
"On the Hummus Route was created by prominent figures in the world of culture, cuisine, and science, in a first-of-its-kind collaboration led out of Paris across nine Middle Eastern cities, from Cairo all the way to Damascus, via Gaza, Jaffa, Tel Aviv, Nazareth, Jerusalem, Akko, and Beirut." (Tablet)★★★★★"Hummus is as much an art book as a cookbook, and its organizing principle is geography. Alexander wanted to make the book a journey "between cities, people, and dreams" where borders and political arguments had vanished. The book focuses on nine cities--Cairo, Beirut, Damascus, Gaza, Jaffa, Tel Aviv, Jerusalem, Acre, Nazareth--that comprise "the hummus route." (Atlas Obscura)
★★★★★
"Humus, the peacemaker. 
Israeli, Palestinian, Lebanese, Syrian cuisines and Egyptian each claim ownership of the famous mashed chickpeas with sesame. But its simplicity and its strength symbolic might well end up transcending borders thanks to a few enthusiasts." (Mari-Claire)

On the Hummus Route is a groundbreaking art book and cookbook, a utopian journey between cities, people, and dreams. It documents street food and life in nine Middle Eastern cities - Cairo and Jerusalem, Gaza and Tel Aviv, Jaffa, Damascus, and others, to resonate the message: "It's all about humanity".

The many adventures on this joint journey were collected in this groundbreaking art book and cookbook, which brings a wealth of 70 recipes shared here for the first time.

On the Hummus Route showcases never-been-seen images of street photography capturing the vibe of everyday life in Gaza, Tel Aviv, Beirut, and Damascus in a rare and personal statement, which unfolds the immense diversity of dishes, friendships, and dreams that can be created with this one little grain - the world's most ancient raw material.

Title: The best book about Garbanzo Beans ever.
Review: This book is a comprehensive guide to the best utilizations of Garbanzo Beans (Hummus) utilizing beautiful pictures and stories, from Egypt, through Palestinian Territories and Israeli Cities, and north from there. A good friend of mine in Israel, who is a food personality there, is friends with these authors and recommended this book the last time we were there. Since I have bought it, it is one of my very favorite cookbooks to look at, read, and cook from. If you follow these recipes, you will undoubtedly make some unbelievable food. And please, if you make falafel from this book, use a meat grinder and not a food processor. 10 out of 10 on this book.

Title: Very interesting story!
Review: Delightful pictures and equally delightful stories. There is much to absorb from this book. I think, however, I am going to have to buy the printed copy. It is kinda hard to read on the Kindle.

Title: Absolutely beautiful book!
Review: Gorgeous book all about Hummus - with recipes and stories from different regions all over the Middle East. Beautiful pictures, very interesting and sometimes moving stories - and quite a bit of background information on the history of chick peas, hummus, falafel and related dishes. I am looking forward to trying some of the recipes. Wonderful gift, coffee table book - or addition to a book collection.

Title: Amazing book!
Review: I recently traveled to Israel with friends and visited a restaurant , Alakawi, in Acre that featured hummus. It was fabulous, one of the best dishes I have ever tasted! The owner of the restaurant, Yosef Baballah, is featured in this book! So, of course, I had to buy it! While I haven't tried his recipe or any of the others in the book, just reading it brings back wonderful memories of the delicious food he served us....
