Teta Loula’s Egyptian Kitchen – An Egyptian Cookbook of Recipes, Heritage, and Family Stories
 
This is a cookbook, but at its heart, it is a love story — a love for food, and a deeper love for family.
Teta Loula learned to cook from her grandmother, who taught her that food was never just food; it was how you gathered people, how you cared for them, how you made a home. From her tiny Cairo kitchen, Teta fed an entire family with magic — no matter how many people showed up at the table. She cooked with intuition, stories, and a kind of love that can only be passed down, never taught.
 
Teta Loula’s Egyptian Cookbook preserves that legacy.
 
Inside are the authentic Egyptian recipes our family has kept for over 140 years, along with Teta’s handwritten tips, heritage notes, folk stories, and the flavours that shaped generations. Each chapter is built as a full experience — with artwork, playlists, and cultural notes that bring the Egyptian kitchen to life.
 
It’s not just about how we cook.
It’s about how we live, how we love, and how we remember.
 
Printed in Egypt. From our kitchen to yours.
