About the Jewish Food Hero Newsletter
The Jewish Food Hero newsletter is all about sharing goodness through healthy kosher recipes and nourishing ideas.
In each issue, you’ll find:
Jewish Food Hero recipe aligned with a nutritional health theme. Since 2025, the focus is on low-carb recipes.
A Community Recipe featuring a recipe and an interview with someone from our global Jewish community. These Community Recipes are my way of creating a bridge to connect you with Jewish people and traditions from around the world.
Israeli Recipes in Translation showcasing a monthly dish from Israel, translated and adapted for non-Hebrew speakers. Each recipe highlights the dish’s origins, cultural significance, and the story behind it, connecting us to Israel through its diverse and vibrant culinary traditions.
Nourishing Ideas: thoughtful reflections on health and Judaism, including interviews with nutrition experts, book reviews, Jewish quotations, and more to inspire a balanced and meaningful life.
Occasionally, I also share my new minimalist Judaica designs, giving you an exclusive first look.

Since 2014, I have been creating minimalist Judaica designs with the belief that having Judaica in our homes is essential for fostering a sense of Jewish pride and identity. Judaica helps us connect with our heritage, honor traditions, and create spaces that reflect the values and beauty of Jewish life. It serves as a reminder of our faith, heritage, and the importance of preserving our culture across generations.
