Spices have shaped history, hospitality, trade and medicine. Above all, they have been a blessing at mealtimes. The quest for culinary improvement has motivated merchants and mariners for untold centuries. Since its earliest days, the Islamic world has had a vital role to play. This book is a continuation of the first Spice Journeys, published by the Islamic Arts Museum Malaysia twenty years ago. Although the story of Muslim traders and cultivators is rarely told, like the products themselves they remain indispensable to healthy and enjoyable human existence. Adding to the experience are twelve recipes that span the Islamic world. From Southeast Asia to the shores of the Atlantic Ocean, these dishes celebrate the richness and diversity of regions brought together by a culture that continues to revere the full flavours of God’s bounty.
