When the Jews fled Iraq for Israel, they could not take their material possessions, but they did take their culture-and their rich cuisine. With Mongolian, Turkish, and Indian influences, Jewish-Iraqi cuisine is a special blend that has rarely been documented. Rivka Goldman takes the reader through her memories of an ancient land and culture and the culinary heritage passed on to her by her mother, Nazima. \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e This elegant cookbook memoir describes the ways in which the unique sociopolitical history of the Jewish-Iraqi people has impacted their foods and the ways in which they are eaten, supplying over 100 healthful family recipes. Refreshing salads, hearty stuffed vegetable and meat dishes, and wholesome dumpling, fish and rice dishes all accompany tales of friendship, loyalty, persecution, escape, exile, and, of course, celebration.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eSample recipes: \u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eStuffed Meat Pockets \u003cem\u003e(Hashwa ab Lahm)\u003c\/em\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003cstrong\u003ePickled Mango \u003cem\u003e(Ambah)\u003c\/em\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eOkra, Garlic and Mint \u003cem\u003e(Bamia ab Thum oo Nanah)\u003c\/em\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eChicken, Garbanzo Beans, and Raisins \u003cem\u003e(Gige ab Hmas)\u003c\/em\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eBeef, Zucchini and Leek Soup \u003cem\u003e(Marag ab Lahm oo Koossa)\u003c\/em\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eFeta Cheese Omelets \u003cem\u003e(Aja ab Jibin)\u003c\/em\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eGarlic and Basil Fish \u003cem\u003e(Smack ab Thum oo Rihan)\u003c\/em\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eFeta and Spinach Pie \u003cem\u003e(Burekas im Gevina veh Tered)\u003c\/em\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eSemolina Dumplings with Zucchini \u003cem\u003e(Kha Hamnsta)\u003c\/em\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\n\n\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eContributor Bio:\u003c\/strong\u003eGoldman, Rivka\u003cbr\u003e\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\tRivka Goldman was born in Basra, Iraq, into a wonderful tradition and a delicious cuisine.
