Jewish Literary Voices: A Federation Series in collaboration with The Jewish Book Council

In celebration of Tu B’Shevat, the new year of the trees, join Chef Micah Siva in a conversation about plant-forward and eco-friendly Jewish recipes.  Food is a central part of Jewish culture, and those who don’t connect with the foods of yesterday may feel as though a part of their heritage is missing. Nosh is the vegetarian cookbook for the modern Jewish kitchen, drawing inspiration from history through a 21st-century lens.

With the rise in plant-based eating across the globe, Nosh is an ideal guide for those looking to connect with and share their Judaism in a way that feels authentic in today’s landscape.

The cookbook features a comprehensive, plant-forward recipe collection spanning from breakfast and brunch right through to delectable desserts. 80+ vegetarian recipes including Savory Pulled Mushroom and Tofu “Brisket,” Chickpea and Olive Shakshuka, and more. Stunning food photography, kitchen glimpses, and enlightening sidebars on the history of Jewish culinary traditions.

Micah Siva is a trained chef, registered dietitian, recipe writer, and food photographer, specializing in modern Jewish cuisine. After graduating from the Natural Gourmet Institute of Health & Culinary Arts, she pursued a career in nutrition and later worked for global brands, media outlets, and publications in food media.
