Author Description

The Israeli family home dining experience is a trip! I can't say it any other way. It's fun to create and fun to indulge in. Think colors. Think sense - intoxicating aromas. Think flavorful spices for every palette. Think delicious. From appetizers, to main courses, sides, salads, condiments and desserts, the meals in this book are simple to put together, and are made from the best stuff on earth, that your family will love! And trust me, there is so much more to everyday Israeli family cuisine than falafel. Israel is home to Jews who have come from a wide rainbow of ethnic and cultural backgrounds. The result is a melting pot of culinary traditions. As Jews from different backgrounds built new homes together, it is not unusual for one Israeli family to meet a dish from Jewish Kurdistan alongside a dish from Jewish Ukraine, or a dish from Jewish Poland alongside a dish from Jewish Morocco - - on the same table. What's even more fun is that this hodgepodge of flavors and traditions have many times evolved into staple "Israeli" dishes that are unique on their own. You'll discover it all in this book - with easy to follow - family tested and approved- recipes, from my home to yours. I hope you enjoy!
