LebanonPostcard presents the book Lubnan – Barbara Abdeni Massaad – The Dairy Book from the Land of Milk and Honey – With prose by Omar Abou Ezzeddine
Hardcover book, 25×18 cm, 498 pages
Lubnan, a name that not only evokes Lebanon’s snow-covered peaks but, just as deeply, its rich heritage of dairy – the cornerstone of the Mediterranean table. In this book, Barbara Abdeni Massaad celebrates these traditions, beginning with milk and following its transformation into butter, yogurt, labneh, kishk, and cheese, and showing how these foundations inspire both traditional and contemporary dishes.
With striking photography and vivid stories, Lubnan is a tribute to resilience, memory, and craftsmanship-a call to preserve flavors and practices that have shaped Lebanon’s culinary landscape for generations.
With personal reflections and passages from The Book of Abraham by Omar Abou-Ezzedine, it offers both practical guidance in the kitchen and a gentle reminder to live more slowly, more meaningfully, and with a deeper connection to the land.
PRAISE FOR LUBNAN
“Lubnan is a song to the Mediterranean spirit, a manifesto of biodiversity, and a defence of memory.” – CARLO PETRINI, founder of Slow Food International
“The recipes are grounded in memories and encounters with pastoralists, villagers, and artisans whose lives are intimately tied to the act of lactic alchemy.”- TREVOR WARMEDAHL, milk ethnographer and founder of Sour Milk School
“Lubnan gathers the traditions and the people whose hands and hearts preserve our Lebanese identity.” – KAMAL MOUZAWAK, founder of Souk el Tayeb
“An invitation into the spiritual and meditative, where our practice in the dairy traditions of Lebanon becomes an opportunity to slow down, savor, reflect, and live more deeply.”- MAUREEN ABOOD, author of Rose Water & Orange Blossoms and Lebanese Baking
“She sings of the significance of yogurt, butter, and cheese in the Land of Milk and Honey,” DAVID ASHER, author and founder of the Black Sheep School of Natural Cheesemaking
