For many Jews, the meal is the holiday.

Collected by the Jewish Food Society, an organisation dedicated to preserving Jewish cuisine around the world, the 135 recipes and accompanying stories in The Jewish Holiday Table are a dazzling expression of all the ways we celebrate through what we bring to the table.

Discover menus for a Persian Rosh Hashanah feast, a Ukrainian-Mexican Seder, and an Iraqi spread for Purim. And enjoy a memorable Hanukkah tale of grandmothers competing in a doughnut duel, with one's Moroccan sfenj recipe challenging the other's Egyptian zalabia. Reflecting three thousand years of love and loss, culture and change, each dish captures the soul of what's served in a Jewish home on a Jewish holiday.
