Dear cooks, Here is a cookbook that is both a history lesson and a recipe treasury: Quiches, Kugels, and Couscous. It is a book born of Joan Nathan's trip to discover the culinary legacy of the 2000-year Jewish presence in France. What she found is that Jewish cooking is more alive in France than ever; consider, for example, the provençal fish soups, the Rosh Hashanah brioches, and the kosher pastries. This was all news to me, Gentile from Connecticut that I am. I couldn't wait to dive into these recipes, starting with a word from the book's title that I've never heard before: kugel. As I discovered when making the nudel schaleth (noodle kugel with apples) recipe below, a kugel is a sweet or savory "pudding" of noodles or potatoes. Or more simply, kugels are Jewish comfort food. See for yourself. B'tayavon!
