Lovingly assembled, authentic Sephardi delicacies, 14 Aug 1999
By A Customer - Published on Amazon.com
This review is from: The Sephardic Table: The Vibrant Cooking of the Mediterranean Jews : a Personal Collection of Recipes from the Middle East, North Africa, and India (Paperback)
I am a great fan of Sephardi food and own several Sephardi cookbooks. Twena has assembled a wide ranging collection of recipes from the many countries whose Jewish communities fall under the classification "Sephardi". A comment on the origin of the recipe or its appeal personalises each dish. Many Sephardi recipes can be complex and time consuming, but Twena's are generally quick to prepare. Despite several deep fried delicacies and olive oil starring in many others, there are enough low fat recipes to satisfy the calorie conscious. This book is a great purchase for someone searching for a different and imaginative style of cooking, or to duplicate their mother's or grandmother's specialties.

decent but not excellent, 21 Mar 2002
By Elena - Published on Amazon.com
This review is from: The Sephardic Table: The Vibrant Cooking of the Mediterranean Jews : a Personal Collection of Recipes from the Middle East, North Africa, and India (Paperback)
I thought the recipes were too simple and ignored major ingridients that are used in sephardic cooking. The only advantage is very few ingridents, so it is easy to shop. Disadvantage: the taste suffers and isn't aromatic enough.

Wonderful Recipes!, 21 Aug 2001
By Stella "A reader" - Published on Amazon.com
This review is from: The Sephardic Table: The Vibrant Cooking of the Mediterranean Jews : a Personal Collection of Recipes from the Middle East, North Africa, and India (Paperback)
My personal favorites are the Mezze (Appetizers) and the Indian Cardamom Chicken, which is a delight. Many Sephardic recipes are complicated and/or time-consuming to prepare, but Mrs. Twena's are easy to follow and fairly quick too. The spice combinations are intriguing and there are many delicious vegetarian dishes. She also has helpful menus and a basic explanation of the Jewish holidays in the back.
