This gorgeous book from the founders of New York's Gefilteria, Jeffery Yoskowitz and Liz Alpern, is on my Chanucah list. Alpern says: "With this book we're inviting you to enter our world, where Ashkenazi foods and the kitchens in which they're lovingly made are surprisingly modern and relevant. That's what makes this a different kind of Jewish cookbook. Rather than attempting to preserve old recipes or soon-to-be-forgotten ingredients, we're presenting an old approach to a new way of eating. Or is it a new approach to an old way of eating?
"We focus on recipes that tell the story of a rich ethnic cuisine that can be too often misunderstood and undervalued."
Definitely one worth adding to your collection. But do be aware that being a US creation, all measures are in Imperial or US cup size, so invest in a set of measuring cups when buying it.
