› Find signed collectible books: 'Cucina Ebraica : Flavors of the Italian Jewish Kitchen'
Jews have lived in Italy since Roman times, always part of the cultural landscape, always living in isolation of one kind or another. The word we know as ghetto comes to us from 16th-century Venice. Within the world of Jews in Italy, there are several smaller worlds: those of the native Italian Jews, of the Sephardim driven out of Spain, and of the Ashkenazim moving down from Germany and Eastern Europe. Take all those food traditions and dietary laws, squeeze them in one overarching food sensibility, and you have a very unusual way to view culture and history. Joyce Goldstein, in Cucina Ebraica, demonstrates that culture and history are edible, if not downright delicious.
Take Livornese Couscous with Meatballs, White Beans, and Greens. Couscous came to Livorno with North African Jews in the 1270s. It was a Friday-night meal, and the leftovers were served cold the next day on the Sabbath. Goldstein gives the first honest recipe for Carciofi alla Giudia (crispy fried artichokes in the Roman Jewish style) yet printed. Not all artichokes are alike, she demonstrates, and then shows you a way around the problems no one else ever manages to address to successfully cook this classic.
As she has proved in The Mediterranean Kitchen and Kitchen Conversations, Joyce Goldstein knows how to bring great food to the home kitchen. Her research is impeccable, her technique straightforward. Cucina Ebraica, this wonderful way of looking at an Italian cuisine that must answer to so many other influences, is an obvious project of love and devotion. Not to be missed. --Schuyler Ingle [via]

In this volume from the Williams-Sonoma Lifestyle Series, Joyce Goldstein, the award-winning San Francisco chef, guides you in making and serving outstanding soups. Organizing her 45 recipes into 10 three-course menus, she shows how to compose soup-centered meals, from a Thermos and Basket Picnic to an Elegant Dinner Party, each offering soup, a salad, and dessert. Goldstein favors soups with ethnic roots, like a cold Lithuanian Borscht splashed with raspberry vinegar. She also has a fine creative touch that's evident in the Roasted Squash Soup with hazelnuts, a colorful and warming broth.
Accompanying each recipe is a handy pointer for ensuring soup perfection. For Asparagus Soup, Goldstein explains that using spears past their prime can give a grassy taste--this can be balanced by adding a dash of cream.
Reassuringly, the recipes are not overly taxing, but they do involve "real" cooking, such as the long simmering of dried beans. The results, though, including Spanish Pumpkin and Bean Soup, are just rewards for your efforts. Finally, Richard Eskite's splendid photos illustrating how to present each soup at the table are so full of life that you can taste them. --Dana Jacobi [via]
