Sweet Noshings: new twists on traditional Jewish desserts.
Thirty modern Jewish dessert recipes from cookbook author and culinary-school-trained chef Amy Kritzer Becker: Chocolate Halva Hamantaschen, Manischewitz Ice Cream, Lemon Ricotta Blintzes with Lavender Cream, and a Tex Mex Chocolate Rugelach worth fighting your sister over.
What’s inside
Thirty original recipes covering the classic Jewish dessert canon with a twist like Chocolate Halva Hamantaschen, Manischewitz Ice Cream, Lemon Ricotta Blintzes with Lavender Cream, and a Tex Mex Chocolate Rugelach. Each recipe was developed and tested in Amy’s home kitchen, with notes on the dish’s history, what bubbe might say, and some helpful tips.
Holidays covered: Hanukkah, Passover, Rosh Hashanah, Purim, Shabbat, and Tu BiShvat. Recipes are organized so you can flip to whatever you’re cooking for next without consulting a calendar.
