Falmouth Jewish Congregation invites everyone to this virtual author talk. Join Micah Siva to explore the recipes and concept behind her new and beautiful cookbook, filled with dishes that you can prepare for your family and guests, knowing that you are serving them healthy food that suits their dietary needs. This event is scheduled just before the Jewish holiday of Tu B'Shevat, a celebration of trees and the environment - and a perfect time to consider plant-forward Jewish recipes!
"This will appeal to anyone trying to convince Bubbe that Passover can be done without the meat, with genuinely appealing options." ― Booklist
"With so much to savor, this expert guide will be a boon to vegetarian cooks looking to enjoy traditional Jewish cuisine." ― Publishers Weekly
"With its mix of plant-based twists on classic dishes and exciting new plates featuring global ingredients, Nosh is a tantalizing addition to the Jewish cookery canon." ― Foreword Reviews
From Kenden Alfond’s review for the Jewish Book Council: “In Nosh, Micah Siva skillfully navigates the intersection of plant-forward eating and Jewish food traditions, combining flavors that reflect both Jewish food heritage and contemporary dietary trends and preferences. The visual allure of the cookbook is immediately apparent: each recipe is brought to life through stunning photographs that enhance the overall reading experience.
The cookbook is meticulously organized, offering an array of plant-forward recipes that ranges from savory to sweet. Instructions are concise and easy to follow, ensuring an enjoyable cooking experience for seasoned cooks and newcomers alike. Prepare imaginative dishes like carrot “lox” and lemony blintzes, turmeric vegetable matzo ball soup, everything bagel “fattoush” salad and vegan potato latkes, plant-forward options like savory pulled mushroom-and-tofu “brisket” and spiced cauliflower chraime, and desserts such as kitchen sink mandelbrot and halvah pistachio babka rolls.
