Israeli baking encompasses the influences of so many regions - Morocco, Yemen, Germany, and Georgia, to name a few and master baker Uri Scheft seamlessly marries all of these in his incredible baked goods at his Breads Bakery in New York City and Lehamim Bakery in Tel Aviv. Nutella-filled babkas, potato and shakshuka focaccia, and chocolate rugelach are pulled out of the ovens several times an hour for waiting crowds. In Breaking Breads, Scheft takes the combined influences of his Scandinavian heritage, his European pastry training, and his Israeli and New York City homes to provide sweet and savory baking recipes that cover European, Israeli, and Middle Eastern favourites. Scheft sheds new light on classics like challah, babka, and ciabatta - and provides his creative twists on them as well, showing how bakers can do the same at home - and introduces his take on Middle Eastern daily breads like kubaneh and jachnun. The instructions are detailed and the photos explanatory so that anyone can make Scheft's Poppy Seed Hamantaschen, Cheese Bourekas, and Jerusalem Bagels, among other recipes. With several key dough recipes and hundreds of Israeli, Middle Eastern, Eastern European, Scandinavian, and Mediterranean influenced recipes, this is truly a global baking bible.
