What happens when the nice Jewish boy you end up marrying comes not from New York but from Casablanca? Who considers chicken soup little more than flavored water and grew up eating the head of a lamb--teeth and all--on Rosh Hashanah? A Well-Spiced Life is the warm, charming, often hilarious account of the author's foray into a brave new Sephardic world.
As her family grew, the author absorbed the culture and cuisine of a variety of Sephardic cultures--so well, in fact, that she laments that some of it is still clinging to her waistline. Be prepared to savor this lively combination of anecdotes, culinary tips, humor, and a trove of tempting recipes you'll designate as keepers.
