King Solomon’s Table: An Around-the-World Collection of Recipes From the Global Jewish Diaspora

Driven by a passion for discovery, King Solomon is said to have sent ships to all corners of the ancient world, initiating a mass cross-pollination of culinary cultures that continues to bear fruit today. With King Solomon’s appetites and explorations in mind, James Beard Award-winning cookbook author and authority Joan Nathan has gathered more than 170 recipes that span the millennia: from classics like “Yemenite Chicken Soup with Dill, Cilantro, and Parsley” and “Hamantaschen with Poppy Seed or Chocolate Filling” … to contemporary riffs on traditional dishes such as “Smokey Shakshuka with Tomatoes, Peppers, and Eggplant” and “Roman Ricotta Cheese Torte” for her ambitious new book King Solomon’s Table. Join her as she takes us on a journey through the historical details, personal histories and fantastic recipes that showcase the diversity of Jewish cuisine from India to France, from Italy to Mexico, from El Salvador to Israel and, of course, all across North America.
