Jewish Mama's Kitchen by Denise Phillips
The Jewish Mama's Kitchen is a celebration of the fascinating and diverse culinary traditions from different Jewish communities as continued by families today. Using a technique of reportage and focusing on the Yiddisher mother of the household, we catch a glimpse of how the old and new worlds meet and marry. Denise Phillips shares her favorite everyday recipes and those popular for special occasions as they have been passed down through the generations. She records the cooking skills she learnt from her mother and grandmother and divulges those family secrets that give certain dishes that extra zest that set them apart. Chapters take the reader through traditional Jewish food from starters and main courses such as Falafel and Kasha and Varnishkes to Friday Night Desserts and Tea at Booba's House, such as Lokshen Pudding and Booba's Vanilla's Biscuits. The cultural or religious significance of certain foods is explained and dishes suitable for every Jewish festival are recommended.
