"We should all be cooking like Adeena Sussman." --The Wall Street Journal "Sababa is a breath of fresh, sunny air." --The New York Times In an Israeli cookbook as personal as it is global, Adeena Sussman celebrates the tableau of flavors the region has to offer, in all its staggering and delicious variety In Hebrew (derived from the original Arabic), sababa means "everything is awesome," and it''s this sunny spirit with which the American food writer and expat Adeena Sussman cooks and dreams up meals in her Tel Aviv kitchen. Every morning, Sussman makes her way through the bustling stalls of Shuk Hacarmel, her local market, which sells irresistibly fresh ingredients and tempting snacks--juicy ripe figs and cherries, locally made halvah, addictive street food, and delectable cheeses and olives. In Sababa, Sussman presents 125 recipes for dishes inspired by this culinary wonderland and by the wide-varying influences surrounding her in Israel. Americans have begun to instinctively crave the spicy, bright flavors of Israeli cuisine, and in this timely cookbook, Sussman shows readers how to use border-crossing kitchen staples-- tahini, sumac, silan (date syrup), harissa, za''atar---to delicious effect, while also introducing more exotic spices and ingredients. From Freekeh and Roasted Grape Salad and Crudo with Cherries and Squeezed Tomatoes, to Schug Marinated Lamb Chops and Tahini Caramel Tart, Sussman''s recipes make a riot of fresh tastes accessible and effortless for the home cook. Filled with transporting storytelling, Sababa is the ultimate, everyday guide to the Israeli kitchen.

Instant New York Times bestseller Named a Best Cookbook for Fall 2023 by the LA Times, Food & Wine, Eater, WBUR, and Simply Recipes The author of Sababa returns with a collection of good-for-the-soul recipes that embody the spirit and pleasures of Shabbat As a child, Adeena Sussman looked forward to the magic of Shabbat—the traditional Jewish day of rest—all week. A treasured time when family and friends come together to relax, unwind, and revel in one another’s company during open-ended, tantalizing meals, Shabbat has been practiced all over the world and throughout history. In Sussman’s home, then and now, the Shabbat table is a centering force, a nourishing place where one and all are welcome. It’s an opportunity every week to feed the soul. Because tradition dictates that the Sabbath is reserved for downtime, Shabbat cooking is all about smart techniques and sound prep. Nostalgic, cozy mains like Fig & Pomegranate Brisket and Bubbe’s Extra-Crispy Potato Kugel are crowd-pleasers and require little hands-on attention. Sides and bright salads like Moroccan Carrot Salad, Roasted Kohlrabi, Cherry & Feta Salad, and Sweet & Tart Eggplant Salad are best served at room temperature. With staples like Amba (pickled mango spread), Tomato Jam, and Schug-a-churri (a blend of Yemenite and South American condiments) on hand, it’s easy to punch up flavor and find something delectable to slather on challah. And from the showstopping Lemon Black-Sesame Bundt Cake to the rich comfort of Vegan Rice Pudding, there’s always something special for dessert. Woven throughout the recipes is a rich portrait of Shabbat in Israel, where it is practically a national holiday. Taking us inside the kitchens and traditions of local cooks who have shared their most beloved recipes, Shabbat brings to life Sussman’s adopted home country with transporting, slice-of-life storytelling. Deeply personal and brimming with life, Shabbat inspires us all to embrace the delights of Shabbat. Now more than ever, Shabbat cooking is what we all need.

THE INSTANT NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLER New York Times bestselling cookbook author Adeena Sussman offers a quick and easy (“zariz") approach to Israeli-inspired home cooking with satisfying recipes for every day. For Adeena Sussman, the kitchen is an island of calm: A place where she can center her mind, set the rules, and create a daily haven of deliciousness through her cooking. These days, she finds herself embracing the mantra “when the going gets tough, the cooking gets easy.” Pandemics, wars, and the busy pace of a very full life have led her toward a smoother, more streamlined cooking approach embodied in the Hebrew word, zariz, or “quick.” This pared-down style doesn’t mean sacrificing the rhythms, sounds, and sensory pleasures we experience while preparing vibrant, exciting, yet simple recipes. Instead, it has led her to rely on fewer pots and pans, a more edited pantry of highly versatile ingredients to create maximum flavor, and simple, thoughtful techniques that bring meals together effortlessly--always with her signature, flavor-forward style. Most of the recipes in this cookbook contain fewer than 12 ingredients—not including olive oil, salt, pepper, and lemons, which are staples of Adeena’s Middle Eastern & Mediterranean-inspired dishes. From comfort foods like Sunny Sheet Pan Shakshuka and Baharat-Spiced Mushroom Hummus to satisfying mains like Hachapuri Pizza and Spice-Drawer Schnitzel, Zariz will help you cook with ease, making your kitchen a place of calm, deliciousness, and joy.
