Feeding the Women of the Talmud, Feeding Ourselves produces true food for thought by retelling the stories of sixty-nine women in the Talmud and honoring them with vegan or plant-based recipes. Enjoy sixty-nine delicious, balanced recipes ideal for family meals, entertaining, and healthy snacks. Each recipe is accompanied by stunning photography and meditations on stories of women in the Talmud that draw new meaning from the text.
This community cookbook is the co-creation of 129 Jewish women from around the world. Sixty rabbis, rabbinical students, Jewish teachers, and emerging thought leaders contributed to the Talmudic narratives, and sixty female professional chefs and passionate home cooks contributed to the recipes. The addition of this female-focused point of view to these women’s Talmudic stories—which were recorded and edited by men—is a bright and encouraging testament to a modern generation of women engaging in Jewish learning.
Here are two photos of contributors with the cookbook. I love these cookbook portraits photos!
Tiki Krowkowski (the Talmud content editor and author of Rabbi Yohanan's Sister/ Reish Lakish wife on page 269) shared this photo
Allegra Benitah shared a video on Instagram and I took a screenshot from it. She created the recipe "Wild Red Rice Roasted Vegetable Platter with Pomegranate molasses and Fresh herbs” on page 206
I have never run a giveaway on Substack so I hope it works!
Thanks for reading.
To your health and Inspiration,

I would really enjoy owning this cookbook. I particularly like the focus on women in the bible. I think our daughters (and sons) should appreciate the contribution that women make. I am also a vegetarian and would love to try new recipes
I love the historical focus on Jewish woman.
