　　"Joan Nathan has created a masterful blend of food and

culture. She takes her reader on an extraordinary journey through

the history of the land of Israel and the development of modern

Israeli food. I was delighted to visit all the different ethnic

communities that have contributed to Israeli cuisine, and my mouth

watered just imagining the feast that Joan Nathan describes."

--Teddy Kollek, former mayor of Jerusalem

In this richly evocative book, Joan Nathan captures the spirit of

Israel today by exploring its multifaceted cuisine. She delves into

the histories of the people already settled in this nearly barren

land, as well as those who immigrated and helped to quickly

transform it into a country bursting with new produce. It is a

dramatic and moving saga, interlarded with more than two hundred

wonderful recipes that represent all the varied ethnic backgrounds.

Every recipe has a story, and through these tales the story of

Israel emerges.

Nathan shows how a typical Israeli menu today might include

Middle Eastern hummus, a European schnitzel (made with

native-raised turkey) accompanied by a Turkish eggplant salad and a

Persian rice dish, with, perhaps, Jaffa Orange Delight for dessert.

On Friday nights she visits with home cooks who may be preparing a

traditional Libyan, Moroccan, Italian, or German meal for their

families, the Sabbath being the focal point of the week throughout

Israel (all her recipes are accordingly kosher). And she takes us

to markets overflowing with vegetables, fruits, herbs, and

spices.

To gather the recipes and the stories, Nathan has been traveling

the length and breadth of Israel for many years--to a Syrian

Alawite village on the northern border for a vegetarian kubbeh and

to Bet She'an for potato burekas; to the Red Sea for farmed sea

bream and to the Sea of Galilee for St. Peter's fish; to

Jerusalem's Bukharan Quarter for Iraqi pita bread baked in a

wood-fired clay oven, to the Nahlaot neighborhood for Yemenite

fried pancake-like bread, and to a Druse village for paper-thin

lavash; to a tiny restaurant in Haifa for Turkish coconut cake and

to a wedding at Kibbutz May'ayan Baruch in the upper Galilee for

Moroccan sweet couscous; and to many, many other places. All the

while, she seeks out biblical connections between ancient herbs and

vegetables and their modern counterparts, between Esau's mess of

pottage and today's popular taboulleh, and she delights us with

tales of all she encounters.

Throughout, Joan Nathan shows us how food in this politically

turbulent land can be a way of breaking down barriers between Jews,

Moslems, and Christians. Generously illustrated with colorful

photographs, this enormously engaging book is one to treasure, not

only as a splendid cookbook but also as a unique record of life in

Israel.
