I can't rave enough about this one.The writer covers almost every major Jewish food comity ( only Ethiopia is missing do to problems finding a translator). Everything from corning your own beef ( and I don't mean throwing packaged roast in to a crock pot!) to stuffed leeks (you've *got* to try that one) to boraykas, to the world best hamantoshn recipe! But it;s not the superb resipeses that make this book so wonderful- its also a enthonrogy- each section has information about the life stiles of the Jews in that ara or time being discussed. Mixed often with her own recollections of being a Jew in Egypt before the expoltion. Photographs old jokes and ways of life- make this so much more then a cook book!
