What are the most Jewish foods, anyway? The entire list is up for debate, and this distillation from the online zine Tablet explores deeply with essays, recipes, stories, and context. Many are delicious (babka, shakshuka) and quite a few are now universal favorites (matzo balls, pickles, cheesecake, blintzes), while others make us wonder how they've survived as long as they have (unhatched chicken eggs, jellied calves' feet). The commentary here is courtesy of Ruth Reichl, ?ric Ripert, Yotam Ottolenghi, Maira Kalman, Ruth Westheimer, and Phil Rosenthal, among many others.
