Straight from the kitchen of a fun, fabulous Jewish mom, Jewish Cooking Boot Camp is a guide to whipping up traditional favorites for a new generation. Handed down over the centuries, these recipes and tips will take even the most kitchen-challenged gal (or guy) confidently through the Jewish holidays, Shabbats, and other important occasions (like having a significant others mother over for dinner).In addition to more than fifty easy-to-make, scrumptious, traditional (and nontraditional) recipes, Roz and Andrea provide expert tips from Jewish bartenders, nutritionists, and party planners; interviews with rabbis about creating modern family traditions; inspirational traditions from Jewish families around the globe; kosher wine pairingsand much more. Jewish Cooking Boot Camp takes every last ounce of intimidation out of Jewish cooking while serving up a hearty helping of family, culture, and other flavors to savor. From Publishers WeeklyWhatever tribe readers may belong to, theyre sure to find a few new favorites (and an auxiliary Jewish grandma) in this terrific collection, which has the feel of a conversation with a caring relative. Authors Marks and Carneiro state up front that they arent keeping kosher or following rules in their compilation of menus, organized by holiday (complete with wine pairings), though they do include a wealth of thoughtful tips for those who prefer to stick by tradition. Yes, brisket, latkes, kugel and flourless Passover Brownies make the mix, but so does a kosher caipirinha (utilizing kosher cachaca). The emphasis is on flavorful home cooking: chicken noodle soup, Swiss steak, mashed potatoes, and a simple ice cream pie will appeal to cooks of any faith. Anecdotes, quirky suggestions (like a list of Chanukah-appropriate hip-hop), and tips for buying and presentation jostle with recipes like a busy, satisfying family dinner, providing new cooks and those intimidated by Jewish cuisine a comforting, familial vibe.

FOREWORD

Lor v dor

One of the most vivid and cherished childhood memories I hold centers around our visits with Grandma Rose in Rockaway Beach, New York. Several times a year my dad, mom, sister, and I would drive from our home in Bethesda, Maryland, to Grandma Rose and Grandpa Lous place on Long Island. Their walkup was small and cluttered, but the central room for me was the tiny kitchen. I will always remember the distinct smells, familiar tastes, gregarious chatter, and simple joy of sitting, for hours it seemed, at their crowded kitchen table while Grandma Rose showered us with an overabundance of delicious, homemade Jewish foods.

From her perspective, she could never make enough for us nor could we consume enough of what she made. From my perspective, I felt her steady love and adoration for my dad, extended now to his family, expressed through her caring preparation and presentation of Jewish foods for us. As I look back, I think the consistency, generosity, and pleasure of her creating family memories through food has deeply shaped me.

Today, I spend less and less time in my own kitchen as I work on issues of social justice and gender equity that often take me far from home. Yet, I regularly return to my kitchen for grounding. For it is at our kitchen and dining tables, often imbued with food prepared with my Grandma Roses recipes (captured by the diligent measuring and surveillance of my Aunt Bea who shadowed my grandma years ago), that I too seek to transmit the message of my relentless love for our growing family and my deep craving to nurture and gather my family to create memories that will sustain us now and inspire the next generations.

Grandma Rose taught me how to actualize the fundamental Jewish value of lor v dor passing values, traditions, and dreams from generation to generation. I try to do it in many ways, perhaps the most delicious of which is through food.

INTRODUCTION

The idea for Jewish Cooking Boot Camp started a long, long, long time ago. You see, when you live in New York but your parents live in Miami... well, they end up with a lot of house-guests. In my case those guests were a small group of my friends who spent every winter holiday (and some others) flying down to bask in the sun and fun of Miami. We would take over my parents house with our suitcases and winter coats, spend all night running around South Beach, and finally end up gathered in the kitchen the next morning to share our stories from New York City with my parents as we picked over the seemingly unlimited food my mom, Roz, would have waiting.

As the years passed I eventually left New York, but my friends kept up their commute to Miami. We got new jobs and new apartments and new boyfriends, but our jet-set visits never changed. The annual Marks family Chanukah party raged on, and Rozs latkes continued their steady climb to legend status. One holiday, as we sat around the kitchen, my friend Ellen suddenly had a realization. What happens, she asked, when we all have our own families and we have to start cooking for ourselves? We were silent. And an idea was born.

At first it was a joke. We envisioned a long weekend, a syllabus, a holiday-by-holiday game plan designed to teach us everything from brisket to kasha and varnishkas, cabbage soup to nut cake. We laughed and moved on. But soon I realized that a Jewish Cooking Boot Camp was, in fact, an amazing idea. I thought of the millions of young people out there who were looking for guidance but were too intimidated to pick up a traditional cookbook, or who had grandmothers and mothers (like mine) who cooked without recipes, or who simply didnt have the time to learn in a traditional setting. I thought of my mom and how she defied the stereotype of a traditional Jewish cook. She was young and cool and had a career. She could just as easily navigate her way around a good Neimans sale as she could a noodle kugel. She made Jewish cooking less intimidating.

The truth is this: Its incredibly difficult to become a great chef, but its very simple to cook dinner for your family. My mom always says that if you have good recipes, youre two-thirds of the way there. And thats what were giving you.
