Description: The now out-of-print Alchemist's Cookbook is the next best thing to having been invited to artist and chef Yacoubi's NYC loft for an evening of music, art, and a delicious meal finished off with the finest Gunpowder Green tea with fresh mint. When asked if he was a Moroccan chef, Yacoubi's reply was, "I cook artistic dishes," although his upbringing in Fez honed incredible skills and instincts resulting in meals that truly touched his lucky guests' souls with its flavors and healing effects. The 125 recipes were fancifully illustrated by the musicians and artists Michael Cotton and Prairie Prince, and then published by his friends at Omen Press. They start with "Soup to Cure Jealousy" and end with "Hashish Haraira," filled in between with chapters devoted to: soups and salads, vegetables, grains and beans, fish and seafood, eggs, meat and the like, and finally desserts, nut butters and beverages. Allen Ginsberg stated, "Ahmed is a Great chef - a master", and owning this collection of his formulas, now a collector's item, will serve anyone well. When Cuisine is Karma
