Review by Booklist Review

In this follow-up to Jew-ish (2021), which offered modern, Persian-inspired spins on American Jewish classics like latkes and babka, Cohen offers an array of recipes that put food and hospitality at the center of life. He uses the book's title, "nosh," as both a noun (a snack) and a verb ("to eat food enthusiastically or greedily"). Decadent recipes for cacio e pepe matzo brei and schnitzel challah sandwiches are surely more meal than snack, but the fresh ingredient lists and suggestions for how to lovingly serve will make readers want to dig in. With an "anyone can do this" approach, Cohen begins with "10 Commandments of Kitchen Life" ("be equipped"; "leftovers are a blessing") and then dives into a recipe for challah, illustrated with how-to color photographs and suggestions for how to modify the dough for burger buns, monkey bread, sufganiyot, and more. There are recipes for "pantry powerhouses" (i.e., sauces and condiments like harissa honey and dukkah), sandwiches, salads, soups, and dips. So, how about something to nosh on? Sweet potato hummus? Kugel fries? Maybe some "soupless chicken soup"?
