Ep 14 - Mahia: A Uniquely Jewish Alcohol

Season 1 · Episode 14

Wednesday, August 28, 2024 • Duration 20:11

Not only do Jews drink way more than many people know, there are actually a number of alcoholic beverages that are UNIQUELY Jewish. Mahia is one. Tune in to learn all about the history of this interesting spirit, how you can get it today, and also learn about some of the other Jewish alcoholic drinks. I also discuss one of the more subtle lessons we can learn from the Jews' relationship to alcohol throughout history, and around the world. My guests are David and Dorit Nahmias.

Ep 13 - Kugel: Spirituality in the Jewish Kitchen and Beyond

Season 1 · Episode 13

Wednesday, August 14, 2024 • Duration 23:42

Kugel is more a class of foods, than a food. Growing out of the medieval Ashkenazi kitchen, it went through a multi-stage development process, and now comes in many forms. It remains, however, one of the most popular Shabbat dishes. But primarily due to its popularity, it also grew into a dish that is particularly revered by Chasidic Jews. Understanding why also helps us to perceive the growth of spirituality across the board in Jewish life. My guest is Adeena Sussman.

Ep 12 - Adafina: Jewish Food Conquers Antisemitism

Season 1 · Episode 12

Wednesday, July 31, 2024 • Duration 20:58

Since this episode is being released during a period of mourning, on the Jewish calendar, I am looking at how food also reflects one of the near constant negative aspects in Jewish history: Jew-hatred. Adafina is a dish that dates back to medieval Spain, and during the Inquisition, it literally became a matter of life and death. But other foods in our history have also helped us persevere despite the near-constant attacks we've endured, and actually facilitated our triumph and persistence as a nation! I look at some of those in this episode, as well. My guest is Helene Jawhara Piner. (Full Episode Notes available at https://www.tasteofjew.com/podcasts/)

Ep 11 - Pizza Ebraica: A Sweet Treat from the Roman Ghetto

Season 1 · Episode 11

Wednesday, July 17, 2024 • Duration 18:50

Pizza Ebraica is not what most people think of when they hear the word pizza. But the name is absolutely appropriate, as I explain in the episode. This cookie is a uniquely Jewish food, and highlights a whole class of foods that are identified as Jewish IN THEIR NAMES. I also look at the issue of dairy and pareve within Jewish desserts. My guest is Benedetta Guetta. (Full Episode Notes available at https://www.tasteofjew.com/podcasts/)

Ep 10 - Pastrami: The Uniqueness of American-Jewish Food

Wednesday, July 3, 2024 • Duration 21:06

What makes American-Jewish pastrami different from other deli meats? How does it compare with its European precursors? How did the delicatessen embody the American-Jewish experience? And how similar are American-Jewish and European Ashkenazi cuisines? Among other questions, this is what I explore in episode 10, focused on the beloved food of New York City, pastrami. This episode's guest is Ted Merwin. (Full Episode Notes available at https://www.tasteofjew.com/podcasts/)

Ep 9 - Kashkarikas: Turkish Sephardic Kitchen Wisdom

Season 1 · Episode 9

Wednesday, June 19, 2024 • Duration 14:32

Jews have been the masters of preserving and repurposing foods, reducing food waste. And we act as a "Light Unto the Nations" by sharing this value with the world. Learn about the title food, the concept of "Bal Tashchit," and my interviewee's organization that was designed to reduce food waste everywhere. This episode's guest is Sibel Pinto.

Ep 8 - Meorav Yerushalmi (and 3 Other Jerusalem-named Foods)

Season 1 · Episode 8

Wednesday, June 5, 2024 • Duration 18:36

In honor of Yom Yerushalayim - Jerusalem Day - this episode looks at four different foods, all of which have the word Jerusalem as part of their names. I also explore the cuisine of Jerusalem in general, and by extension, that of Israel overall. This episode's guest is Joe Korson.

Ep 7 - Gondi: A Persian Pleasure to Honor Shabbat

Season 1 · Episode 7

Wednesday, May 22, 2024 • Duration 17:59

Jews everywhere have always reserved their best foods for the Sabbath. Gondi is a food that is unique to the Jews of Persia (Iran), and is almost exclusively eaten at Friday night Shabbat dinner. One of many examples of HOW Jews use cuisine to honor and show respect for their Day of Rest. This episode's guest is Tannaz Sassooni.

Ep 6 - Bourekas: Food for a Globalized Nation

Season 1 · Episode 6

Wednesday, May 8, 2024 • Duration 17:03

Many people know and love bourekas, but few know of its Jewish origin story. Learn how this food is the result of Jewish migrations, and hear of other similar foods that only came about because we have spread around the world. Culinary fusion is not a new thing, nor simply a way to experiment or titillate -- often it is a natural outgrowth of a population shift. My guest is Chanie Apfelbaum.

Ep 5 - Moufletta: Jewish-Arab Friendship in Morocco

Season 1 · Episode 5

Wednesday, April 24, 2024 • Duration 16:52

Moufletta is eaten by Moroccan Jews at the holiday of Mimouna, that immediately follows Passover. It reflects the relatively good relations the two communities shared there. This episode looks at this crepe's Jewish bonafides, discusses other similar examples from around the world, and reveals how the tradition changed (but also stayed similar) in Israel. My guests are The Sephardic Spice Girls -- Rachel Sheff and Sharon Gomperts. (Full Episode Notes available at https://www.tasteofjew.com/podcasts/)
