Book: Kugels & Collards
Synopsis: Where people go, so goes their food. In "Kugels & Collards," Rachel Gordin Barnett and Lyssa Kligman Harvey explore the food history, traditions, and memories of Jews in South Carolina, building on their blog of the same title. The book explores the diversity of Jewish South Carolina, with stories and recipes contributed from families with Sephardic and Ashkenazi heritage who have been in the state for hundreds of years, from descendants of Holocaust survivors, and from more recent immigrants from Russia and Israel. "Kugels & Collards" is also a story of cultural assimilation and exchange and considers how local ingredients and techniques have become part of the South Carolina Jewish table, including the influence of the generations of Black women who cooked for Jewish families. This collection, with more than 50 stories and approximately 80 recipes, as well as 60 historic and family photographs and professional photographs of finished dishes, showcases the diversity of Jewish cooking throughout the state. All book royalties will benefit the Jewish Historical Society of SC and Historic Columbia.
