When arriving and settling in a new place, Jews, influenced by the world around them, would adopt local customs, something that is strongly reflected in the different food cultures that developed in both the Ashkenazic and Sephardic traditions.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">The breadth of Jewish cooking spans as wide and as far as Jews have traveled. The culture of food in different Jewish communities often reflected the social and economic status of the Jews in that particular part of the world at a specific point in time. Many classic Jewish foods also reflect <em>Kashrut<\/em>, the laws that pertain to dietary restrictions, and other Jewish laws that apply to issues of food and cooking in general. The global reach of the Jewish people means that Jewish food has no perfect definition, but rather a wide range of influences that left their mark and guided the Jewish kitchen to become what it is today.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">Modern Jewish cuisine has evolved and grown over time but those classic dishes, the ones that smell and taste of home, draw people back to their roots no matter where those roots were planted. From the shtetls of Poland and Hungary to bustling metropolises in Egypt and Morocco, Jewish food has evolved and diversified all the while holding strong to Jewish tradition, creating a historical connection between the journeys of Jewish people and the food that they eat.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">Interestingly enough, while Mizrahi and Yemenite foods are extremely popular in mainstream Jewish cooking today, especially in Israel, research on the subject yielded few written recipes or cookbooks from Jewish communities in the Middle East and the Orient. Instead, the National Library of Israel collections yielded such fascinating items such as a small cookbook from Poland that is filled with recipes for Middle Eastern cooking written in Yiddish.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">\u201cDei Yiddishe Kuch,\u201d a small and inconspicuous cookbook with a green and brown spotted cover written by B. Shafran was recently rediscovered in the collections of the National Library of Israel and serves as an interesting example of the global reach of Jewish food. Printed in Warsaw in 1930, the cover page promises recipes from a wide range of countries including but not limited to Poland, Russia, Romania, Germany, Alsace, Morocco, Tunisia, and the USA \u2013 and it delivers.<\/p>\n<figure id=\"attachment_56869\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-56869\" style=\"width: 500px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"wp-image-56869\" src=\"https:\/\/blog.nli.org.il\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/09\/yidishkuch-445x600.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"500\" height=\"674\" srcset=\"https:\/\/blognli2026.moonsite.co.il\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/09\/yidishkuch-445x600.jpg 445w, https:\/\/blognli2026.moonsite.co.il\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/09\/yidishkuch-223x300.jpg 223w, https:\/\/blognli2026.moonsite.co.il\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/09\/yidishkuch-768x1035.jpg 768w, https:\/\/blognli2026.moonsite.co.il\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/09\/yidishkuch.jpg 910w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 500px) 100vw, 500px\" \/><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-56869\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">&#8220;Dei Yiddishe Kuch,&#8221; published in Warsaw, 1930.

While for some this may seem like a stretch, this unassuming book serves as a fascinating reflection on just how connected the Jewish communities were across the world through the language of food. A Jew living in a small village in Poland could create an inherently Mizrahi dinner from a cookbook written in his or her native Yiddish all before the age of digital technology and communication. The universal language of food spread across borders and oceans allowing for the creation of that seamlessly blended flavor that is a trademark of the Jewish kitchen.<\/p>\n<figure id=\"attachment_56872\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-56872\" style=\"width: 500px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"wp-image-56872\" src=\"https:\/\/blog.nli.org.il\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/09\/shakshuka-480x600.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"500\" height=\"625\" srcset=\"https:\/\/blognli2026.moonsite.co.il\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/09\/shakshuka-480x600.jpg 480w, https:\/\/blognli2026.moonsite.co.il\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/09\/shakshuka-240x300.jpg 240w, https:\/\/blognli2026.moonsite.co.il\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/09\/shakshuka-768x960.jpg 768w, https:\/\/blognli2026.moonsite.co.il\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/09\/shakshuka.jpg 944w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 500px) 100vw, 500px\" \/><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-56872\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">A page from &#8220;Dei Yiddishe Kuch&#8221; featuring a recipe for Shakshuka written in Yiddish.

Home to the intellectual and cultural treasures of Israel and the Jewish people, the National Library of Israel works to preserve and make these treasures available to diverse audiences in Israel and across the globe. A variety of items now preserved in the National Library collections mirror the journeys taken by Jewish people and the rich and diverse food culture that was developed and maintained over the centuries.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Shakshuka (Cracked eggs) Recipe from Dei Yiddishe Kuch:<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Fry a clove of garlic in a bit of oil.
