The Cuisine and Food of Israel
I am thinking about going to Israel at some point in the future, but I am not really sure when I will have enough money to do so. One thing that I want to learn about before I go is the Cuisine that is eaten in Israel. I am really interested in food in general, and I would like to be a chef one day. Well, that is one of my passions in any case. The reason that I care so much about Israeli food is that I am Jewish, and it seems like it would make me feel more in touch with my fellows Jews if I were to learn of the food in israel.
I know that the food represents kind of a fusion between the dishes that are traditional to the whole middle eastern and Mediterranean, along with foods that are of traditional Jewish origin. I know a good bit about traditional Jewish food, as I grew up in a Jewish household. My father makes the best French toast in the world from Challah bread; it is simply amazing. I’m sure that Israel’s cuisine incorporates many of these Jewish dishes that I am already familiar with.
However, I would like to get to know the rest of the food that they eat, and am very curious to learn more about such foods. I would also like to learn how to make some of these foods. I really like hummus, and I have tried it many times before in my life. I am thinking about attempting to make it sometime soon. I just need to find a good place to get some chick peas from. There are a lot of other dishes I want to learn how to make as well. In particular, I want to learn how to make falafel.
