The Sephardic kitchen in Europe This book about the Sephardic flavors in Europe delves into the rich tapestry of Sephardic culinary traditions, tracing their evolution from the Iberian Peninsula to various corners of Europe. It begins with a look at Al-Andalus, where the vibrant flavors and foundational dishes emerged during a golden age of cultural exchange. The narrative then shifts to the secretive practices of Crypto-Jews in Spain and Portugal, who maintained their culinary heritage under the oppressive gaze of the Inquisition. Their resilience is mirrored in the Ottoman Empire, where Sephardic immigrants adapted their recipes by incorporating Levantine spices and local ingredients, creating a unique fusion that still resonates today. The exploration continues through Italy, highlighting how Sephardic influences merged with regional Italian cuisine within ghetto communities. This blending resulted in refined dishes that reflect both cultural identities. In Southern France, particularly Bordeaux and Bayonne, the Port Jews developed a distinctive culinary style that showcases French techniques infused with Sephardic flavors.
