Joan Nathan's Jewish Holiday Cookbook

Joan Nathan's Jewish Holiday Cookbook

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 Nathanâ€™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 cuisinesâ€”Moroccan, Russian, German, and contemporary American are just a fewâ€”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 motherâ€™s table and dishes that go back to the Second Temple, family recipes that you thought were lost and other familiesâ€™ 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 exoticâ€”Algerian Chicken Tagine with Quinces or Seven-Fruit Haroset from Surinamâ€”or rediscover an American favorite like Pineapple Noodle Kugel or Charlestonian Broth with â€œSoup Bunchâ€ and Matzah Balls. No matter what you select, this essential book, which combines and updates Nathanâ€™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.
