Hadassah, the Women's Zionist Organization of America, published in 2002. Now, they present another coffee-table cookbook with beautiful photographs sure to inspire those new to Jewish cooking. Cooks expecting matzo balls and challah will be disappointed (suggested instead are Andrea Marks Carneiro and Roz Marks's and ), but those looking for modern Jewish recipes will be delighted to find Late Summer Fig Salad, Lemony Chicken Soup, Quinoa-Stuffed Squash with Pears and Cranberries, and Ricotta and Pistachio-Stuffed Figs. Food writer Koenig's book is highly recommended.
