A culinary journey through the country of Georgia, told through essays, cultural commentary, breathtaking photography, and more than 75 showstopping recipes.

Georgia is a transportive, mouthwatering journey into Georgian cuisine, brought to life through evocative photography shot on location. Situated at the crossroads of Europe and Asia along the Silk Road, the Caucasus nation fascinates food lovers with its fusion of Eastern and Western flavours, techniques, and traditions, all while maintaining an identity entirely its own.

On a single table, you might find khinkali, or soup dumplings, served alongside a Mediterranean inspired tomato and cucumber salad and clay oven breads reminiscent of naan. Georgia features familiar favourites like khachapuri, kharcho, and tolmas, as well as lesser known regional delights like kalia, a pomegranate chicken stew. No Georgian feast would be complete without dessert, including gozinaki, caramelized honey walnut squares, and shakarlama, almond butter cookies scented with cardamom.

Georgia is an invitation to explore the landscapes and culinary traditions of a vibrant, deeply rooted culture.
