“It’s a real joy to discover that a great and vibrant gastronomic
culture has emerged in Israel out of the varied legacies from the
old Diaspora communities. The Book of New Israeli Food is splendid,
engagingly written, with delicious recipes and stunning
photographs. Stories, features, and background information give a
fascinating insight into life in Israel, the enthusiasm of home
cooks, the creativity of chefs, and the passionate endeavors of
bakers, winemakers, and olive oil and cheese producers.”
–Claudia Roden, author of The New Book of Middle Eastern Food
“Finally, a book about Israeli food that is modern in its approach
and comprehensive in its scope… [With] beautiful photography, an
attractive format, plenty of useful recipes, and some food stories
to boot, [it] is a perfect gift… Warmly recommended.”
–Israel Aharoni, Yedioth Ahronoth
“Filled with delicious recipes, Janna Gur’s gorgeous new book puts
Israel on the culinary map–exactly where it deserves to be.”
