Here, in her most personal book yet, the beloved authority on global Jewish cuisine uses recipes to look back at her own family's history-- their arrival in America from Germany; her childhood in postwar New York and Rhode Island; her years in Paris, New York, Israel, and Washington, DC. Nathan shares her story--of marriage, motherhood, and a career as a food writer; of a life well-lived and centered around meals--and she punctuates it with all the foods she has come to love. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003eWith over 100 recipes from roast chicken to rugelach, from matzoh ball soup to challah and brisket, here are updated versions of her favorites. But here too are new favorites: Salmon with Preserved Lemon and Za'atar; Fragrant Spiced Chicken with Rice, Eggplant, Peppers, and Zucchini; Mahammar (a Syrian pepper, pomegranate and walnut dip); Moroccan Chicken with Almonds, Cinnamon and Couscous; Joan's version of the perfect Black and White Cookies. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003eThis is a treasury of recipes and stories--and an invitation to a seat at Nathan's table.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAbout the Author\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003eJOAN NATHAN is a frequent contributor to \u003ci\u003eThe New York Times\u003c\/i\u003e and other publications.
