The Search for Israeli Cuisine

Celebrity chef Michael Solomonov goes on a culinary expedition through Israel, traveling deep into the gastronomical heart of a country with a rich tapestry of flavor to its name, seeking out the family traditions that shape food culture and looking at the Israeli-Palestinian conflict through the prism of food. For those who can only conjure images of hummus and falafel when Israeli cuisine comes to mind, let this travelogue for the tastebuds open your eyes (and stomach) to a rich panoply of taste.
