Jewish

Diversity is the essence of Jewish cuisine. Historically, the Jewish people have moved around the globe influencing and being influenced by a myriad of different culinary traditions, resulting in a synthesis of hearty stews and pies from eastern Europe with Mediterranean-influenced dishes rich in fruit, vegetables and olive oil. The book focuses on the tastiest recipes in this long and proud tradition, offering such tempting fare as Chicken Soup with Lockshen, Beef Cholents, Tabbouleh, Coconut Pyramids and Challah. Special dishes eaten for festivals or religious celebrations are included, plus a useful introduction to the rites, rituals, customs and history associated with Jewish cooking.

This wonderful series is a passport for exploring culinary traditions all around the world. Each book offers 40 classic and innovative recipes from a popular cuisine, with a fascinating introduction to the region's cooking heritage, and information about special techniques and exotic ingredients.

These books are designed to allow the reader to successfully re-create the unique tastes and exciting flavours of faraway places in the comfort of their own home.
