The English, as you know, are a seafaring nation. They had a problem: during long sea voyages, food tends to spoil. They developed a cement like cracker that today we call hardtack. The Italians had the same problem: they invented biscotti. In a nutshell, that is the difference between Italian and English cooking. We came up with Mandelbrot. Does that put Jewish cooking halfway between the Italians and the English?
