This has been a great year for Jew­ish-inter­est food­ie books. From the The Mile End Cook­book and Jerusalem, to JBC Net­work books An Ever­last­ing Meal, Break­ing Bread in Galilee, Din­ner: A Love Sto­ry, The Whole Foods Kosher Kitchen, Get Cook­ing, Eat the City, and Helen Nash’s New Kosher Cui­sine, we’re swim­ming in lox over here. Speak­ing of lox (I know, I know).…be on the look­out for Mark Russ Fed­er­man’s Russ & Daugh­ters, pub­bing from Schock­en in March:
