Jewish holidays are defined by food. Yet Jewish cooking is
always changing, encompassing the flavors of the world, embracing
local culinary traditions of every place in which Jews have lived
and adapting them to Jewish observance. This collection, the
culmination of Joan Nathan’s decades of gathering Jewish recipes
from around the world, is a tour through the Jewish holidays as
told in food. For each holiday, Nathan presents menus from
different cuisines—Moroccan, Russian, German, and contemporary
American are just a few—that show how the traditions of Jewish food
have taken on new forms around the world. There are dishes that you
will remember from your mother’s table and dishes that go back to
the Second Temple, family recipes that you thought were lost and
other families’ recipes that you have yet to discover. Explaining
their origins and the holidays that have shaped them, Nathan spices
these delicious recipes with delightful stories about the people
who have kept these traditions alive.
Try something exotic—Algerian Chicken Tagine with Quinces or
Seven-Fruit Haroset from Surinam—or rediscover an American favorite
like Pineapple Noodle Kugel or Charlestonian Broth with “Soup
Bunch” and Matzah Balls. No matter what you select, this essential
book, which combines and updates Nathan’s classic cookbooks The
Jewish Holiday Baker and The Jewish Holiday Kitchen with a new
generation of recipes, will bring the rich variety and heritage of
Jewish cooking to your table on the holidays and throughout the
year.
