The Jewish Heritage Cookbook

The rich and varied history of the Jewish people is reflected in their traditional foods and dishes. This wonderfully evocative cookbook takes you on a journey through the evolution of a cuisine that is inexorably linked to the past as well as to the present. The recipe section features the classic dishes that every Jewish grandmother will know, together with recipes that draw on the culinary traditions of the global Jewish community. Matzo and onion kugel, pot-roasted brisket, and pesach almond cakes sit in glorious contrast to the warm tastes of baba ghannoush, kofta kebabs and spiced chicken from the Middle East.
