Eating Delancey: A Celebration of Jewish Food

Eating Delancey: A Celebration of Jewish Food

Delancey Street in New York conjures up an entire world of Yiddishkeit, "TheÂ quality of being Jewish; the Jewish way of life or its customs and practices."Â Delancey, and the streets that cross it in the Lower East Sideâ‚¬"Ludlow, Essex,Â Orchard, Rivington, and its "sister" street to the north, Houston Streetâ‚¬"are theÂ historical home of Jewish immigrants and thus a cradle of that unique JewishÂ experience.

All the foods that were brought to America in the early 20th century by Jews duringÂ the great emigration from Europe came to the Lower East Side: knishes, bagels, lox,Â pastrami, whitefish, dill pickles, kasha, herring (in multiple variations), egg creams,Â and much more. It is an area that continues to undergo rapid change but EatingÂ Delancey hopes to capture forever the Jewish cuisine of the Lower East Side.

Eating DelanceyÂ is a compilation of gorgeous photographs of classic Jewish food, with profiles and receipes from classic LES Jewish eateries such as Sammy's Roumanian Steakhouse, Russ & Daughters Appetizers, Katz's Delicatessen, Yonah Schimmel Knish Bakery, and Ratner's. These are complimented by celebrity reminiscences from Bette Midler, Jackie Mason, Itzhak Perlman, Joshua Bell, Don Rickles, Fyvush Finkel, Isaac Mizrahi, Lou Reed, Arthur Schwartz and Milton Glaser.
