Feasting - A New Take on Jewish Cooking

Many young Jewish families around the world still gather for a Shabbat meal every Friday night, and for Jewish holidays, yet don't always want to cook the same food their parents and grandparents did. They are more health conscious, and keen to try out dishes from different countries, regardless of their family's own heritage.

In Feasting, author Amanda Ruben offers the modern home cook a range of familiar and exotic dishes. Recipes include Classic chicken soup; Roast cauliflower with dukkah, crushed hazelnuts and date yoghurt; Grilled figs with tomatoes, burrata and vincotto dressing and mouth-watering Challah bread and butter pudding. A chapter on Jewish holiday food includes traditional recipes, with a modern spin, to help you celebrate with friends and family.

All the recipes are kosher, and these traditional elements are used to create dishes from all around the world, with results that are often lighter than traditional Jewish cooking. The book also includes dinner menus to suggest delicious kosher menus, for Passover and Jewish New Year, as well as all year round.

If you're a home cook wanting to bring more variety to your family meals, Feasting is set to be your go-to cookbook.
