In May I introduced my new column, the goal being to share exactly how I cook with Forward readers. Each month I share a piece of my work-in-progress memoir along with a few kitchen-tested, five-ingredient recipes. (Salt, pepper, oil and water are freebies.) My memoir jumps around through time and space, which can be hard…
I love this potato salad that my “real” Israeli sister-in-law Chanie is always whipping up for family get-togethers. It reminds me so much of the Romanian salad I grew up with, a chicken-based take on salata de boeuf. Made from leftover chicken-soup chicken, it was mixed up with everything you see below. Here I’m sharing…
Classic potato salad can be so heavy, and in the summer months I love to lighten things up. Peppery arugula, sweet cherry tomatoes and bright lemon say “summer potato salad” to me.

Then last week, The Jewish Week reported that the The Jewish Defense Organization (JDO) — a vigilante ultra-Orthodox group committed to rooting out and fighting anti-Semitism — was handing out fliers telling members of…
(JTA) — A French court sentenced members of a jihadist network for a grenade attack on a Jewish grocery store in the Paris suburb of Sarcelles in September 2012. The eighteen men, known as the “Cannes-Torcy cell,” were handed sentences between one and 28 years in prison at a special anti-terror tribunal in Paris Thursday, France…
I’d just arrived in Shanghai and was having one of those unnerving moments I dread in countries where I don’t know the language. The taxi driver had dropped me off in front of a large white villa with an elegant marble staircase. It was not what I’d pictured when I asked to be taken to…
