BOOK TOUR FAQs

Do I need to buy a ticket to attend?

With the exception of San Francisco, Highland Park, and Chicago, ALL events require a ticket to attend.

The cost of your ticket includes admission to a TAHINI BABY celebration near you. Depending on your location, some events will have moderated conversations, audience Q&As, one-night-only dinner experiences, cooking demos, and traditional book signings, while others will be super chill meet-and-greets with delicious light bites. Certain events will include a signed copy of TAHINI BABY, while others will have books available for purchase on-site. Check the registration page for the specific event you’re interested in for the full details.

You’re not coming to my city, can I still get a signed copy?

What you will discover in this book

1.

Vegetables like you’ve never seen them – Explore 100+ Middle Eastern- and Mediterranean-inspired recipes that make veg the star of the show, from crispy Eggplant Schnitzel (a personal fave!) to Lemon-Braised Leek Masabacha (my husband couldn’t get enough). So many bright, poppy flavors that will liven up your table and make you look (and feel) like a badass in the kitchen.

2.

Simple, shareable fun – Irresistibly simple and made for sharing—whether it's a casual weeknight dinner or a full-on dinner party, these recipes are easy to whip up. So bring your favorite people together and cook from some of my fave chapters – brekky & brunch, wow salads, hot new side piece, and she’s baked.

3.

The magic of tahini (and other condiments, dips, and noshes!) – Tahini is a superstar in the kitchen and I can't wait for you to fall in love with its creamy richness in dips, desserts, and so much more. You’ll find tons of saucy, flavorful goodness, like Safta’s Baba, Light-as-Air Hummus and Tzatziki with Crispy Shallots (anyone else obsessed with loading up on dips, salads, and breads?!)

4.

Mix-and-match meals – You’ll find endless combinations of dishes, condiments, and sides to fill up on. We want a smorgasbord of deliciousness and every chapter works beautifully together.

5.

Stress-free cooking – Forget complicated techniques—Tahini Baby is all about a playful, forgiving approach that’ll make your time in the kitchen fun and seamless. Let’s layer it up and enjoy the process, baby!

“As my body is nearly 25 percent tahini, I can steadily relate to Eden’s Tahini Baby. Jokes aside—this is a fresh, fun, and exciting book that will make you feel like you’re cooking with Eden and her beautiful family in her stunning home kitchen.”

—Mike Solomonov, chef and New York Times bestselling author of Zahav

“I love this book! Eden's magnetic personality and irresistible cooking leap off of every page, coaxing you into the kitchen to make her delicious, easy—but never boring—recipes. Guiding us through every step—from creating the ultimate pantry to meals for every occasion and craving—Eden delivers on dishes that are as fun as they are fulfilling.”

Adeena Sussman, New York Times bestselling author of Shabbat and Sababa

“I want to cook everything in this book! Eden uses Middle Eastern flavors to create veggie-forward recipes that are exciting, delicious, and—best of all—fun. From gorgeous ‘wow salads’ to mouthwatering mains, Tahini Baby is packed with inspiration for vegetable lovers.”

—Jeanine Donofrio, New York Times bestselling author of Love & Lemons: Simple Feel Good Food

“In more ways than one, Eden speaks my culinary language fluently—a meze of bold, vibrant, and herbaceous flavors that are effortlessly plant-forward. Tahini Baby echoes just that. Recipes best shared with friends and family, with a sprinkle of Aleppo, a squeeze of lemon, and, of course, a drizzle of tahini!”

—Athena Calderone, author of Cook Beautiful

"It's not often I want to pick up my life and move, but after reading Tahini Baby cover to cover, it's safe to say that I would like to be Eden's neighbor. You could open the book, flip to any page, and know that you're looking at a winning recipe. This one is absolutely not to be missed! Twelve out of ten!"

—Gaby Dalkin, New York Times bestselling author of What’s Gaby Cooking

“Eden’s second cookbook may just be more triumphant than her first! It’s packed with the zestiest, most drool-worthy recipes, overflows with warmth, and overdelivers on her playful, signature style. Tahini Baby is the baby I didn’t know I needed. It will reinvigorate your veggies and inspire you to drizzle, schmear, and sop up every sunshiney drop of kitchen goodness with joy and abandon!”
