"Just a Pinch," next week at the Museum of American Jewish History

POSTED: Friday, October 19, 2012, 10:18 AM

Cookbook collectors and amateur food historians, the National Museum of American Jewish History (101 S. Independence Mall East) have an event coming up next week that you’ll want to check out. On Wed., Oct. 24, at 6:30 p.m., they’ll present Just a Pinch: A Brief and Unofficial History of Jewish Cooking in America. (The event is part of the ongoing What is Your Food Worth? series that we’ve mentioned before.)

The exhibit will feature tons of vintage cookbooks and other materials, plus readings by special guests including Audrey Claire Taichman and Siobhan A. Reardon, the director of the Free Library. Afterward, there’s a reception offering tastes of some of the recipes found in the exhibition’s pages. Tickets are available right here and cost $8 for Museum members and students, $12 for everyone else.
