List Price: $22.95

Product Description

Every year, rhymer and novelist Marge Piercy creates her own Passover seder with a group of one's nearest and friends. Babies have been born and grown up, friends have moved or divorced, but the principals remain to gather in her rustic Cape Cod home to participate in a seder that Piercy takes joy in tweaking each derive from to make it more meaningful. In this journey through the ritual, Piercy coaxes us toward “a informative contemporary interpretation, rather than an emphasis on what is strictly ‘precise’ or traditional.” She reminisces about her grandmother, who plan herself unworthy to lead a seder because of her limited Hebrew but presided “morally” at the inventory; she urges adding an orange to the seder plate; she even describes her plucky efforts to make her own gefilte fish (an experiment not to be repeated).

Piercy offers her detached slant on each element of the feast and provides dozens of her own wonderful recipes, which she delivers in the same earnest, commanding voice as is heard in her poems and prose: “When I told Ira that I was booming to explain how to cook matzoh brei, he thought I was hatter. Everybody knows how to make matzoh brei, he said. But I am of the notion that there is no longer anything that everybody knows how to cook.”

It is in that spirit–no interview too simple–that Piercy welcomes readers to her kind of seder: a homemade and special affair, the kind we all wish we could attend. This charming and illuminating book of Passover wisdom, brimming with favorite dishes and Marge Piercy’s own unfixed Passover poems and blessings, invites us to look at an important Jewish perfunctory in a whole new way.

Seder Stories contains the memories of puberty Seders from 101 Jewish people. Some of them are famous, like Rabbi Harold Kushner and attorney Alan Dershowitz. Others are renowned only within their circle of friends and family. Some of the stories are funny, some woeful, some thought provoking and worth reading. All of them are charming.

Seder Stories is a bounty book filled with delightful anecdotes of cleaning legislature, eating hard matzo balls, and milking kosher cows. Following an introduction that gently (and seconds) reviews the background and importance of the major Passover traditions, the eight chapters that hunt down are filled with as many as a dozen stories revolving around a central treatise. Each story is told in the first person and retains the storyteller's forum. Stories come from folks of all ages, many professions, and all parts of the Combined States.

"What I remember about Seders when I was a child is the never-ending comestibles -- the brisket, the matzo balls, the killer horseradish," writes Rips. "What my children about about their Seders is Elijah, in person, striding in the door, loudly playing 'Eliyahu' on the trumpet, dressed entirely to toe in trend-setting dark brown polyester with a lash belt to accentuate the ensemble. Over the top? Maybe. But Passover is one time of the year when it seems pertinent to go all out."

Faye Levy is amorous about Jewish cooking. Encouraged by her mother, who came from Warsaw to the U.S. and is now living in Israel; by her mom-in-law, born in Yemen and also living in Israel; and by their extended families, who cloak the globe, Levy has an enthusiasm for her subject that is inspirational. Her well provided for culinary heritage ensures that no one is forgotten. Although most Jewish dishes can be inexpertly described as belonging to one of the two major branches of Jewish cultivation and cuisine--the mostly European Ashkenazim and the Spanish and Mediterranean Sephardim--the recipes she has included go far beyond these two traditions. No Jewish cookbook would be terminated without recipes for gefilte fish, potato latkes, and honey challah, but with 1,000 opportunities to make a show your mouth water, Levy gets creative with recipes like a Moroccan Cucumber and Mottle Salad with Fresh Mint, an Italian Eggplant Caponata, and the quintessential Alsatian coffeecake, Kugelhopf.

Levy explains in her remarkably revealing introduction that the customs of the Jewish festivals strongly modify Jewish cooking, so she uses the festivals as one way to divide up this mammoth chrestomathy. The volume begins with a comprehensive chapter on each of the major festivals, with recipes for starters, crucial courses, vegetarian dishes, side dishes, and desserts right for or inspired by each holiday. While Creamy Raspberry Blintzes and Apple Cinnamon Noodle Kugel with Acidulous Cream may come as no surprise in the Shavuot section, Barley Tabbouleh, Streaked Vegetable Terrine, and a Creamy Onion Soufflé are suffered additions to ancient traditions. Levy has collected these recipes from Jewish cooks all over the dialect birth b deliver and the results are clear and concise, the way your mother (and The Joy of Cooking) would partition a favorite dish. Dvora's Bright and Easy Dot Salad, for instance, begins with a charming nod to Dvora, a Moroccan-born conditioned by of Levy's husband, we learn, who serves this during Succoth; the programme goes on to list just a handful of ingredients and no-flummery instructions.

While 1,000 Jewish Recipes may be the perfect reference cookbook for anyone interested in Jewish cooking, it is also, totally simply, a fabulous collection of recipes. Oven-Braised Except for Ribs in Hot and Sweet Tomato Sauce, Hungarian Oyster-white Bean Soup, French-Style Couscous with Waste Mushrooms, and Chocolate-Pecan Rugelach are all sure to be cram pleasers. For those cooks particularly interested in the mores of Jewish cooking, there is a curt section on keeping kosher, and every recipe is categorized as dairy, viands, or neither (pareve). --Leora Y.

Quiches, Kugels, and Couscous: My Search for Jewish Cooking in France


List Price: $39.95

Product Description

What is Jewish cooking in France?

That is the enquiry that has haunted Joan Nathan over the years and driven her to come across the secrets of this hidden cuisine. Now she gives us the fruits of her pursuit in this extraordinary book, a treasure trove of delectable kosher recipes and the often in motion stories behind them, interlaced with the tumultuous two-thousand-year news of the Jewish presence in France.

In her search, Nathan takes us into kitchens in Paris, Alsace, and the Loire Valley; she visits the bustling Belleville hawk in Little Tunis in Paris; she breaks bread around the survey of the Sabbath and the celebration of special holidays. All across France she finds that Jewish cooking is more animated than ever. Traditional dishes are honored, yet many have acquired a French skill and reflect regional differences. The influx of Jewish immigrants from North Africa following Algerian autonomy has brought exciting new flavors and techniques that have infiltrated contemporaneous French cooking, and the Sephardic influence is more pronounced throughout France today.

Now, with Joan Nathan guiding us, carefully translating her discoveries to our own bailiwick kitchens, we can enjoy:

• appetizers such as the rich subtle satisfy of a Terrine de Poireaux from Alsace or a brik, that flaky scanty pastry from North Africa, folded over a filling of tuna and cilantro;
• soups such as absolutely sorrel or Moroccan Provençal Fish Soup with garlicky Rouille;
• salads number a Mediterranean Artichoke and Orange Salad with Saffron Coin and a Tunisian Winter Squash Salad with Coriander and Harissa;
• a diversity of breads, quiches, and kugels—try a Brioche for Rosh Hashanah, a baconless quiche Lorraine, or a Sabbath kugel based on a centuries-old method;
• main courses of Choucroute de Poisson; a tagine with chicken and quince; Brisket with Ginger, Orange Peel, and Tomato; Southwestern Cassoulet with Bend and Lamb; Tongue with Capers and Cornichons; and Almondeguilles (Algerian meatballs);
• an engaging array of grains, pulses, couscous, rice, and unorthodox vegetable dishes, from an eggplant gratin to a mélange of Chestnuts, Onions, and Prunes;
• for a fine finale, there are Parisian flans and tarts, a Frozen Soufflé Rothschild, and a Hanukkah Apple Piece, as well as many other irresistible pastries and cookies.

These are but some of the treasures that Joan Nathan gives us in this inimitable collection of recipes and their stories. In weaving them together, she has created a book that is a testament to the Jewish people, who, notwithstanding waves of persecution, are an integral part of France today, contributing to the excellence of its cuisine.

For four decades, Waters has been a advocate of local, organic, and sustainable food. She founded the Chez Panisse Underpinning in 1995, which works to promote Edible Schoolyards around the wilderness that integrate growing and cooking fresh, delicious rations into school curricula. In addition, Waters is a vice president of Easy Food International, an organization dedicated to preserving the epoch’s local and artisan food traditions. She is also the author of several cookbooks, including the Chez Panisse Menu Cookbook, The Art of Austere Food, and In the Green Kitchen. Read her review of Quiches, Kugels, and Couscous:

In her latest hoard of recipes, Joan Nathan shows that she is an anthropologist of the first order as she explores the specifics pointer of intersection between French and Jewish food traditions and chronicles how it has procure to form a culture all its own.

I have come to expect nothing less than the most thoughtfully researched and recorded recipes from Joan, and this latest ticket will help to redefine the world of Jewish cuisine for many to the quick cooks, myself included. As much as this book shows Joan’s be attracted to in communicating recipes, it is also a testament to her skill as a scholar of the world’s prog traditions. Joan is a remarkable curator of recipes, selecting dishes that are not only entertaining, but that communicate the history of this unique cuisine.

In a time when so many of the sphere’s food cultures are threatening to disappear, we need more books like Joan’s--books that indoctrinate us about the local food traditions and local ingredients that have been sustaining us for generations. If we don’t register these traditions, they will surely be forgotten. Through this book, Joan has found a way not only to reckon these French-Jewish dishes approachable, but also to preserve them for today’s cooks and for cooks of unborn generations.

Sephardic Flavors: Jewish Cooking of the Mediterranean


List Price: $35.00

Product Description

Chef, architect, and Mediterranean cooking expert Joyce Goldstein follows her acclaimed Cucina Ebraica: Flavors of the Italian Jewish Kitchenette with this remarkable exploration of Jewish cooking of the Mediterranean. In Sephardic Flavors, Goldstein uncovers the culinary account of the Diaspora, revealing in vivid prose and delicious recipes how the Sephardic Jews adapted the cuisines of their new homelands. Sketch upon the cultural and gastronomic heritages of Spain, Portugal, Italy, Greece, and Turkey, Goldstein has amassed a strange array of unique recipes and historical information. A fascinating voyage into culinary record as well as a compilation of superbly satisfying dishes, Sephardic Flavors captures the steadfast spirit and brilliant cuisines that continue to capture our imaginations today.
What is Jewish cooking? Most of us would cite matzo balls, gefilte fish, and other Eastern European-born along. But there's a second Jewish food tradition--the cuisine of the Mediterranean Sephardim. Creator Joyce Goldstein first encountered it in Spain, Portugal, Italy, Greece, and Turkey. Dishes such as Poached Fish with Walnut Cheekiness, Roast Chicken with Apples and Pomegranate, and Saffron Rice Pudding release from this delectable legacy. Part investigation of Sephardic cooking--of the migrations and precise directives that gave it life--and part paean to its bright, tantalizing flavors, Goldstein's cookbook should make good a revelation to all cooks, Jewish or not.

Starting with a history of the Spanish and Portuguese (Sephardic) diasporas that brought Jews to the Mediterranean, Goldstein then provides facts on kosher law and a discussion of American Sephardim, among other relevant topics. Standouts among the recipes that reflect include Fish with Rhubarb Sauce, Lamb with Country-like Garlic, and Meat Loaf with Sweet and Sour Tomato Brass. The book's chapters on savory pastries and vegetables and grains are markedly noteworthy, and include such tantalizing recipes as Cheese-Stuffed Peppers and Pumpkin-Filled Filo Roses. With photographs of many of the dishes, suggestions for Sephardic leave of absence meals, and a wealth of anecdotes and lore throughout, the book uncovers an unexplored Jewish cuisine now accessible to all. --Arthur Boehm
