Learn how she spins tradition into innovation, bringing Jewish holidays to life in a contemporary world filled with unique Judaica and festive food.

From Amy's favorite Ashkenazi dishes to the quirky blend of diverse cultures that have shaped Jewish food, we savor every flavor.

The journey is not always rosy, as we candidly talk about the struggles faced by the Jewish community.
