It's a lot more than just chicken soup and matzo balls! Jewish life and tradition revolve around food—so this collection of delicious, tried-and-true recipes from around the world comes accompanied by stories and superb photos that capture the warmth and atmosphere of Jewish kitchens. From the simplest to the most celebratory dishes, all are founded on ancient laws that stretch beyond countries and continents and belong to a thriving, contemporary food culture. Here are the potato pancakes that make up the Chanukah meal, good old-fashioned chopped liver, gefilte fish (always a part of the Passover seder), roast brisket with sauerkraut, Hungarian goulash, schnitzels of veal or chicken, cholent with potato kugel (the Sabbath stew), and lots of cakes and strudels to top it off. Feast yourself on the authentic food and the fascinating facts. 8 X 9 3/4. All in Color
