Eggplant, orecchiette pasta and so much more in this heritage rich with meaning and taste: Benedetta Jasmine Guetta will discuss her latest cookbook, "Cooking Alla Giudia: A Celebration of the Jewish Food of Italy.” Her appearance is part of the annual Jewish book festival hosted by the United Jewish Federation of Tidewater and the Simon Family JCC.
Benedetta Jasmine Guetta shares the history of Judaism in Italy with a few non-dairy recipes, and offers insight into where Jewish culture and Italian cuisine intersect.
