More About Chef Jennifer: I wrote a family cookbook titled Fistful of Lentils: Syrian-Jewish Recipes from Grandma Fritzie's Kitchen. Together, my grandmother, mom, and I took our collected recipes from an old notebook and tested and debated and created this incredible food history. Tradition and Old World knowledge doesn't need to be lost. In my Middle Eastern and Jewish cooking classes, I intertwine context and family stories to engage all of the senses in learning. Please visit my website to learn more about preserving your family recipes or attend one of my live cooking events in New York/New Jersey area.
