Adventures in Jewish Cooking by Jeffrey Nathan

Cookbooks are interesting to read. This one is pretty straightforward. It is kosher cooking for a modern world. Some of the recipes are traditional, but most of them are kosher takes on international cuisine, not just Israeli.

As with any cookbook, it's best not to read while hungry. I always get jealous of people who live in regions with access to fish mongers. The salads look especially good.

It's an interesting companion book to the author's PBS series New Jewish Cuisine. I would be curious to watch the show, but the cookbook itself doesn't seem particularly special.
