Summary: Tried & true family cookery for body and soul
Review: This is Ms. Kanin's tribute to her mother, a cookbook and a memoir rolled into one. These dishes nourished her family physically and spiritually for generations. The recipes range from old world favorites to family inventions and new acquisitions, all tried & true. Her challah (and its cinnamon swirl bread variation) is one of the best I have had. Her cakes, potato kugel, blintz, and knishes were very nice. Although not a glamourous book (no color photos), I like its helpful sections about cooking technique and nutrition. It is a great fun to read too.
