Welcome to another episode of the Cookbook Love Podcast. Today, I'm joined by Sarah Trad, author of A House in the Lebanese Mountains: Recipes and Stories from Beit Trad.
Before we get started, I'd love your help. I'm creating a brand-new class for aspiring cookbook authors who want to build the audience publishers are looking for. If you've ever wondered how to grow your visibility, connect with future readers, or strengthen your cookbook proposal before pitching publishers, I'd love to hear what questions you want answered. I've put together a quick, two-question survey, and your feedback will help shape the class. If you'd like to be the first to know when enrollment opens, you can leave your name and email at the end of the survey.
Now, let's meet Sarah. Sarah is the founder of Beit Trad, a beautifully restored guest house in the Lebanese mountains, and the author of A House in the Lebanese Mountains. In our conversation, we discuss:
How restoring her family's ancestral home inspired a cookbook that preserves recipes, culture, and family history.
Why hospitality, generosity, and gathering around the table become even more meaningful during times of conflict.
The thoughtful process of creating a cookbook that is both visually stunning and approachable for home cooks.
What cookbook authors can learn about creating a lasting legacy through food and storytelling.
