I grew up in Maryland but have lived almost my entire adult life in Israel. My husband is originally from Afghanistan and we keep a kosher home, so "fusion" and substituting ingredients in recipes is second nature to me!! I'm still using a battered copy of the Settlement House Cookbook my sister received as a gift over 40 years ago. Aside from cooking, I'm mother to three, a nurse, and an avid reader.
