ITP Media Group has launched Home Made, a beautifully produced hardback cookbook featuring more than 50 recipes from some of the United Arab Emirates’ most influential chefs, restaurateurs and food entrepreneurs. The book celebrates local culinary talent and offers readers an opportunity to recreate standout dishes at home.
A CELEBRATION OF UAE FOOD CULTURE
Home Made aims to capture the heart of the UAE’s vibrant food scene by bringing recipes out of professional kitchens and into family homes. Contributors include globally recognised chefs such as Vineet Bhatia and Jason Atherton alongside rising local talent and industry figures. Recipes range from comforting classics to sophisticated dishes designed for entertaining. Each entry is paired with personal insights and practical cooking tips that reflect the chef’s unique approach to food.
The collection highlights how tradition and innovation coexist in the country’s culinary landscape, with dishes that blend heritage ingredients and contemporary techniques. The book encourages readers of all skill levels to explore new flavours and try fresh takes on familiar favourites.
BEHIND THE RECIPES
Rather than simply listing ingredients and instructions, Home Made places strong emphasis on storytelling. Chefs share anecdotes about their relationship with the recipes and what they represent in terms of culture, community and home life. This narrative dimension gives readers a window into the creativity and personality driving the UAE’s food industry.
The recipes themselves are selected to be approachable for home cooks, with clear step-by-step guidance that demystifies techniques often seen in professional settings. The book invites experimentation while preserving the warmth and accessibility of homemade cooking.
SUPPORTING A CAUSE
The cookbook is available now in the UAE. Copies are priced at AED 175, with shipping available across the country for an additional fee. Bulk orders can be arranged directly with the publisher. homemadesales@itp.com

A LASTING KEEPSAKE FOR FOOD LOVERS
With its combination of thoughtfully curated recipes, engaging chef stories and high-quality production, Home Made positions itself as a must-have for anyone passionate about cooking and the UAE’s culinary evolution. It offers both inspiration for everyday meals and ideas for special occasions, while documenting the diverse talents shaping the region’s food culture today.
