Here is a little snippet…

Tell us about your blog and how you got started:

In December of 2010 I was working at an uninspired corporate job that I wasn’t passionate about, so I started What Jew Wanna Eat (WJWE) as a creative outlet. I called up my Bubbe Eleanor, and of course she was kvelling when I told her about the idea! She sent me dozens of her favorite traditional Jewish recipes. To add my personal touch, I twisted each recipe a bit to make them my own such as pumpkin hummus or dark chocolate mandel bread. Before I knew it, WJWE turned into so much more! I quit my job and now am in culinary school, teaching cooking classes and food writing on the side. I love it!

What is your earliest cooking memory?

Definitely baking rugelach with my Mom and Bubbe…see Joy of Kosher for more interview goodness!!
