Ouch! I have never in my life encountered a brisket cooked in Campbell's beef broth. Clearly the author has never had one of the proverbial Jewish grandmothers who loved to cook and did so well. (I did, and she was not shy about sharing some of her recipes with her grandson.) And equally clearly, he hasn't encountered cookbooks by authors such as Joan Nathan or Faye Levy which lay out recipes for a mouthwatering variety of dishes, along with stories and context. In fact, we use a Sephardic recipe adapted from Joan Nathan in one of our "Go and Learning" Lesson Plans, "Jewish diversity and innovation: The view from the kitchen."

Not only have we blogged excellent recipes here, we have blogged about them, mentioning Judy Bart Kancigor's Cooking Jewish and the website "Feed me, Bubbe.

Good Jewish cooking, not to mention great Jewish cooking, is easy to encounter.
