'SO PERFECT.' - Gwyneth Paltrow

'A tome spanning the Jewish culinary canon... vibrant, exciting and hunger-inducing.' - Washington Post
'This book amply, and fascinatingly, represents the breadth of the cuisine.' - Food52
'This gorgeous book not only contains delicious, approachable recipes from all over the world, but it's also chock full of stories celebrating the diversity of the Jewish culinary tradition.' - The Pioneer Woman
'This treasure of a book includes more than 400 home-cooking recipes for everyday cuisine as well as holiday foods, with diverse dishes derived from the Americas, Middle East, Europe, Asia and Africa.' - Good Housekeeping
'One of the most comprehensive collections of Jewish dishes on the shelves.' - Forbes
'[W]hat you might call a category-killer. The recipes hail from the geographically massive Jewish diaspora and are as appropriate for the everyday as they are for the holidays.

I feel like a gut kokhn itst!!
Il libro è abbastanza voluminoso, in inglese, con tante ricette divise in sezioni, cenni di cultura e storia del cibo e della sua preparazione. Le sezioni non sono scontate, ce ne sono di dedicate alla colazione ma anche al pane, ai dumplings, alle insalate, ai vegetali. Ci sono anche tantissime immagini relative ai piatti preparati. Gli ingredienti della cucina ebraica sono molto simili a quelli della tradizione mediterranea, quindi non sarà troppo difficile seguire le ricette.
Lo consiglio agli appassionati di cucina, così come tutto il resto della collana Phaidon Cookbook, che ha volumi meravigliosi.
