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

Virtual High Holy Days Jewish Food Series

Join Niki Russ Federman and Josh Russ Tupper, fourth generation co-owners of Russ & Daughters, for inspiring, appetizing ideas for the Yom Kippur break-the-fast and throughout the year.

In 1907, a Jewish immigrant named Joel Russ landed in New York, where he took a pushcart of herring and built a legacy. Four generations later, the ancestral heart of Russ & Daughters still bustles on the Lower East Side. Over the course of a century, Russ & Daughters has fed hundreds of thousands of people, many considering a visit to the original shop a family tradition. Now Russ & Daughters brings its world-famous institution into readers’ homes with Russ & Daughters: 100 Years of Appetizing. Its rich history is told through insider anecdotes from the family and characters on both sides of the counter; illuminating guides to its most famed offerings—smoked salmon, sable, sturgeon, herring, and caviar; and more than 100 recipes for favorite foods like latkes, matzo ball soup, babka, and bagels among others. Nothing can replace the experience of taking a number, kibbitzing with a slicer, waiting in line and ordering your whitefish or belly lox. Yet this book captures some of that infectious spirit, and most importantly, brings families and friends together around the table.

Purchase the book HERE and a portion of the proceeds will be donated back to a local independent bookstore in the Berkshires.
