description
nating journey into the rich history of Jewish food, and provides intriguing insight into the impact of the Holocaust on the path of Jewish food ways in America. This compelling study explains how food has played a crucial role in preserving cultural and religious identity, even motivating those in camps and ghettoes and hiding to survive, providing sustenance in body and spirit, and enabling communal bonding and resistance. Through a wide variety of primary sources, including testimonies, diaries and survivor cookbooks, Jared Heller offers a compelling case that Jewish foods and accompanying rituals in the years post-Holocaust have become more uniform and widely embraced by Jews, as much as part of their common identity as the Holocaust itself and their unbroken collective will for Judaism and the Jewish people to survive.
