About Monday Morning Cooking Club
Product Description A generous, warm-hearted and inspiring cookbook drawn from Sydney's culturally diverse Jewish community, featuring the very best, most treasured family recipes that have been passed down generations.'Having this book at home is pure cosy joy.' Nigella Lawson In 2006, a group of Jewish women began meeting every Monday morning. they cooked, ate, drank endless cups of tea and - often heatedly - discussed the merits of different recipes. After just a few weekly meetings, the Monday Morning Cooking Club was born. Five years and hundreds of dishes later, six members of the sisterhood handpicked their favourite recipes to go into their book - the result is a generous, rich and inspiring cookbook featuring the best, most treasured recipes from a culturally diverse community.
