Many Jewish foods are beloved in American culture. Everyone eats
bagels, and the delicatessen is a ubiquitous institution from
Manhattan to Los Angeles. "Jewish American Food Culture" offers
readers an in-depth look at both well-known and unfamiliar Jewish
dishes and the practices and culture of a diverse group of
Americans. This is the source to consult about what "parve" on
packaging means, the symbolism of particular foods essential to
holiday celebrations, what keeping kosher entails, how meals and
food rituals are approached differently depending on ways of
practicing Judaism and the land of one's ancestors, and much more.
Jonathan Deutsch and Rachel D. Saks first provide a historical
overview of the culture and symbolism of Jewish cuisine before
explaining the main foods and ingredients of Jewish American food.
Chapters on cooking practices, holiday celebrations, eating out,
and diet and health complete the overview. Twenty-three recipes, a
chronology, a glossary, a resource guide, and a selected
bibliography make this an essential one-stop resource for every
library.
