For Adeena Sussman, the kitchen is an island of calm: a place where she can center her mind, set the rules, and create a daily haven of deliciousness through her cooking. These days, she finds herself embracing the mantra “when the going gets tough, the cooking gets easy.” Pandemics, wars, and the busy pace of a very full life have led her toward a smoother, more streamlined cooking approach embodied in the Hebrew word for quick, ZARIZ: 100 Easy, Breezy, Tel Aviv-y Recipes (Avery; On-sale April 28).
This pared-down style doesn’t mean sacrificing the rhythms, sounds, and sensory pleasures we experience while preparing vibrant, yet simple recipes. Instead, it has led her to rely on fewer pots and pans, a more edited pantry of highly versatile ingredients to create maximum flavor, and simple, thoughtful techniques that bring meals together effortlessly—always with her signature, flavor-forward style.
Most of the recipes in this cookbook contain fewer than 12 ingredients—not including olive oil, salt, pepper, and lemons, which are staples of Adeena’s Middle Eastern & Mediterranean-inspired dishes, and already in most pantries. Recipes include:
- Sunny Sheet Pan Shakshuka
- Baharat-Spiced Mushroom Hummus
- Gorgeous Green Salad with Labaneh-Lime Dressing
- Hachapuri Pizza
- Spice-Drawer Schnitzel
- Preserved Lemon, Asparagus, & Cherry Tomato Orzotto
- Grilled Hoisin-Harissa Lamb Chips & Plums with Herb Salad
