著名美食作家安尼萨·赫卢(Anissa Helou)于6月底在贝鲁特发布了新书《黎巴嫩:烹饪我家乡的食物》[1]。该书聚焦于受以色列与真主党冲突严重破坏的黎巴嫩南部村庄的饮食传统 [1]。书中收录了包括迪比因村在内的当地居民在传统菜肴和食物保存技艺方面的记录,例如穆贾德拉(mujadara)和莫内赫(mouneh)等食谱 [1]。
安尼萨·赫卢通过此书旨在展示中东文化的丰富性并正面呈现穆斯林形象 [1]。她曾获得英国美食作家公会终身成就奖 [1]。在书中,她将阿勒颇称为“中东的美食之都”[1]。

The publication focuses on culinary traditions preserved in southern Lebanese villages that have been heavily damaged by conflict between Israel and Hezbollah [1]. Through documenting local recipes such as mujadara and mouneh from communities like Dibbine, Helou aims to showcase the richness of Middle Eastern culture while presenting a positive image of Muslims [1]. Additionally, Helou stated that Aleppo is the culinary capital of the Middle East [1]. The author also noted her recognition with the Lifetime Achievement Award from the British Guild of Food Writers [1].
