Description
No matter your religion, you'll enjoy these tasty recipes. I know Jew will!
Growing up, Amy Kritzer loved to cook traditional foods with her Bubbe Eleanor. Whether they were braiding challah or rolling out rugelach dough, there was always tons of laughter (and a messy kitchen.) These days, inspired by Bubbe's best dishes, Amy puts her own modern twists on everyone's favorite classic Jewish recipes. She incorporates modern ingredients and techniques to make some of the most innovative Jewish creations ever! Her recipes have been featured in The Huffington Post, The Today Show Food Blog, Bon Appetit and more. Jewish food is totally having its moment.
Sweet Noshings takes the ever-evolving world of Jewish desserts to the next level. With stories of life as a Jew in Texas, and plenty of kitsch, Amy's modern interpretations of classic recipes bring new light to old favorites and creates a whole new unique cuisine. You don't have to be Jewish to love these sweets; just enjoy getting creative in the kitchen.

Chocolate Halva Hamantaschen
Lemon Ricotta Blintzes with Lavender Cream

Amy Kritzer Becker is the cook behind What Jew Wanna Eat and co-owner of ModernTribe, which she runs with her brother. She left a corporate job to train as a chef at Le Cordon Bleu in Austin, has written about modern Jewish food since 2011, and is the author of the dessert cookbook Sweet Noshings. She appeared on an episode of Guy's Grocery Games, and her recipes have been featured on Food Network, The Drew Barrymore Show and Good Morning America, and in The New York Times.
She has a soft spot for rainbow sprinkles and her Bubbe Eleanor's brisket, and the same playful streak runs through the pieces she designs for the shop. The Handmade Pickle Menorah exists because she noticed there were plenty of food menorahs but no pickle, so she made one. The Gold Floral Lily Menorah is her tribute to the white lily. She also designs Hanukkah pajamas, from the bamboo Many Menorahs sets to Light and Latkes, sized for adults, kids, babies and even the dog, plus the Spreading Holiday Schmear sweater made with Tipsy Elves.
