A NYT BEST BOOK OF THE YEAR • A SMITHSONIAN MAGAZINE BEST BOOK ABOUT FOOD OF THE YEAR • A SAVEUR BEST COOKBOOK OF THE YEAR A new cookbook from the best-selling and award-winning author that uses recipes to look back at her life and family history—and at her personal journey discovering Jewish cuisine from around the world

"There is no greater authority on Jewish cooking than Joan Nathan." —Michael Solomonov, James Beard award-winning chef and author of Zahav


Before hummus was available in every grocery store—before shakshuka was a dish on every brunch menu—Joan Nathan taught home cooks how and why they should make these now-beloved staples themselves. Here, in her most personal book yet, the beloved authority on global Jewish cuisine uses recipes to look back at her own family’s history— their arrival in America from Germany; her childhood in postwar New York and Rhode Island; her years in Paris, New York, Israel, and Washington, DC. Nathan shares her story—of marriage, motherhood, and a career as a food writer; of a life well-lived and centered around meals—and she punctuates it with all the foods she has come to love.

With over 100 recipes from roast chicken to rugelach, from matzoh ball soup to challah and brisket, here are updated versions of her favorites. But here too are new favorites: Salmon with Preserved Lemon and Za’atar; Fragrant Spiced Chicken with Rice, Eggplant, Peppers, and Zucchini; Mahammar (a Syrian pepper, pomegranate and walnut dip); Moroccan Chicken with Almonds, Cinnamon and Couscous; Joan’s version of the perfect Black and White Cookies.

This is a treasury of recipes and stories—and an invitation to a seat at Nathan's table.

Great for hot 🥵 sleepers!!
Color: Blue(one-sided Cooling), Size: 20"x54"(Pack of 1)
I absolutely love this body pillow!!! It is a nice looking pillow, silky on the cooling side and comfy on the bamboo side. The size is perfect and it really is cooling for someone like me that is menopausal and sleeps very hot 🥵🥵🥵 It keeps me comfortable all night.. I like the amount of fill inside the pillow. As a side sleeper with back pain the thickness of the memory foam keeps my spine aligned perfectly and doesn't flatten out. Best purchase I've made for cooling comfort at a decent price point!!

Nice and adjustable by removing stuffing
Color: Blue(one-sided Cooling), Size: 20"x54"(Pack of 1), Color: Blue(one-sided Cooling), Size: 20"x54"(Pack of 1)
I really like this pillow. It fluffs up huge, and you can throw it in the dryer to fluff it up faster. It’s soft, cozy, and cooling with the cool side of the cover. What I really love about it though is you can remove stuffing easily to adjust the size and weight. It’s pretty big and heavy. It was a bit too puffy and heavy for my taste so I removed a garbage bags worth of stuffing and now it’s perfect!! Great body pillow I totally recommend.

Nice Firm
Color: Blue(one-sided Cooling), Size: 20"x54"(Pack of 1)
So I don’t love this body pillow but I do like it. This is a great pillow for anything the only downside is that it’s super heavy. It’s not something you would throw around the house that’s for sure but it does do its job when I’m sleeping and need something in between my legs my knees. It’s nice and firm not floppy, it’s perfect for a body. It’s perfect height, I’m 5’4 so it is perfect length wise. If you’re looking for something fluffy and lightweight I wouldn’t suggest this pillow but if you’re looking for something you can use for say menstrual cramps or a bad back and simply just to have between your legs than this is the pillow you want. I recommend it to anyone who doesn’t mind a little weight while making your bed. I give it 8:10.

Love this pillow!
Color: Blue(one-sided Cooling), Size: 20"x54"(Pack of 1)
Love this pillow. I bought 2. No weird smell and the cover is half cooling and half bamboo. It is also removable so that it can be washed. The inner pillow insert has a thin permanent cover on it to keep the shredded memory foam enclosed, this is standard compared to other memory foam pillows I've bought in the past. I got them on a used like new discount, and they were still vaccum sealed and truly like new. I couldn't be happier with these pillows, I am so glad I got 2.
