Named a Best Cookbook for Fall 2023 by the LA Times, Food & Wine, Eater, WBUR, and Simply Recipes
The author of Sababa returns with a collection of good-for-the-soul recipes that embody the spirit and pleasures of Shabbat[/b]
As a child, Adeena Sussman looked forward to the magic of Shabbat-the traditional Jewish day of rest-all week. A treasured time when family and friends come together to relax, unwind, and revel in one another’s company during open-ended, tantalizing meals, Shabbat has been practiced all over the world and throughout history. In Sussman’s home, then and now, the Shabbat table is a centering force, a nourishing place where one and all are welcome. It’s an opportunity every week to feed the soul.
Woven throughout the recipes is a rich portrait of Shabbat in Israel, where it is practically a national holiday. Taking us inside the kitchens and traditions of local cooks who have shared their most beloved recipes, Shabbat brings to life Sussman’s adopted home country with transporting, slice-of-life storytelling. Deeply personal and brimming with life, Shabbat inspires us all to embrace the delights of Shabbat. Now more than ever, Shabbat cooking is what we all need.
