But, for his roots in Israel, most of the recipes in it all the flavorful ingredients called for (cin- come from every place else he has worked. And namon, pistachios, dried cherries), I found Shaya doesn’t set up his cookbook in the usual these biscotti-like cookies surprisingly lack- manner, starting with appetizers and proceed- ing in flavor. Perhaps the addition of almond ing through soups, salads, entrees, and des- extract would provide the much-needed serts. No, he takes us along with him as he has punch. traveled the world, cooking in places as diverse as Italy and New Orleans. It’s only in the last chapters that he finally comes home to Israel. Be forewarned: There’s a lot of treyf in this book (e.g., Kugel in Crisis, made with 10 ounces of bacon). Luckily, there were enough recipes to sample in order to do a decent review. Despite the unusual plan of the book, I started with appetizers, and chose one that Shaya says reminds him of his grandmother. Lutenitsa is a Bulgarian relish Za’atar Toad in the Hole made of tomatoes and roasted eggplants and peppers. Often served as part of a Serves 4 mezze platter, this recipe calls for only eight ingredients, but the eggplant and peppers all need to be charred to within an inch of their lives.
