Cooking and Conversation with Adeena Sussman

As a child, cookbook author Adeena Sussman always looked forward to the traditional Shabbat dinner that fed her soul. But in her own kitchen, she feeds it by mixing things up — and in her latest book, Shabbat: Recipes and Rituals from My Table to Yours, she shows you how to follow suit.

Adeena returns to the Shaar not only to talk about such culinary strategies but about the delights of Shabbat in her adopted home, Israel, the traditions of local cooks and the magic of a family gathering to celebrate the Sabbath Queen.
