Mediterranean cooking is having its biggest moment ever thanks to a desire for food that is at once healthy, delicious, and at its very best when simply prepared—and now Daen Lia of @DaensKitchen shares the recipes that have made her a global home cook sensation.

Daen Lia learned to cook from her Spanish and Italian mother and grandmother. With the smell of garlic and roasted tomatoes wafting through the kitchen, Daen discovered the alchemy of a few simple ingredients: garlic, olive oil, and whatever is fresh, whether a vegetable or protein—or both. In Garlic, Olive Oil + Everything Mediterranean, Daen brings together modern Mediterranean recipes that any home cook, regardless of skill level, can make, any day of the week.
