Bahrain’s summer heat is hitting the mid-forties and we have many weeks to go before the weather becomes favorable again. .
I do love picnics though and loved going on them when growing up. I bet most of you have fond memories of picnics too. .

Either way, I hope you find recipes in your own cookbooks that turn this quite bland and versatile ingredient into something truly delicious. .
