Book excerpt: Stories, anecdotes and recipes about Viennese cuisine.Everyone associates a certain impression with Viennese cuisine: Sacher Torte, Wiener Schnitzel, Gugelhupf and Kaiserschmarrn.But Viennese cuisine is much more than just a collection of recipes. Rather, it is a symbol of the Viennese's ability to enjoy the little things in life, good food, good wine and Sunday excursions with his loved ones.And that is exactly what this book is supposed to be about. About the unique Viennese cuisine, which could only be created here, and its connection to this city and the people who lived here.

Nobles, peasants, maids, actors or valets. The Viennese housewife as well as the emperor's personal chef and the coachman from the 1st district.They all made Viennese cuisine what it is today.Their stories are the subject of this book. Who invented the Sachertorte? What do we owe to the Esterhazys? Where does the name Gugelhupf came from?

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Winner of the 2019 National Jewish Book Award in the category of Food Writing & Cookbooks. The author refuses to accept that the world of pre-Shoah Hungarian Jewry and its cuisine should disappear almost without a trace and feels compelled to reconstruct its culinary culture. His book―with a preface by Barbara Kirshenblatt-Gimblett―presents eating habits not as isolated acts, divorced from their social and religious contexts, but as an organic part of a way of life. According to Kirshenblatt-Gimblett: “While cookbooks abound, there is no other study that can compare with this book. It is simply the most comprehensive account of a Jewish food culture to date.” Indeed, no comparable study exists about the Jewish cuisine of any country, or―for that matter―about Hungarian cuisine. It describes the extraordinary diversity that characterized the world of Hungarian Jews, in which what could or could not be eaten was determined not only by absolute rules, but also by dietary traditions of particular religious movements or particular communities. Ten chapters cover the culinary culture and eating habits of Hungarian Jewry up to the 1940s, ranging from kashrut (the system of keeping the kitchen kosher) through the history of cookbooks, the food traditions of weekdays and holidays, the diversity of households, and descriptions of food and hospitality industries to the history of some typical dishes. Although this book is primarily a cultural history and not a cookbook, it includes 83 recipes, as well as nearly 200 fascinating pictures of daily life and documents.

Book excerpt: Examines Jewish life in Vienna, outlining internal dissensions and conflicts between assimilationist and traditional Jews and focusing on the rise and evolution of modern Austrian antisemitism. Jews were attacked as both capitalists and Marxists, as racially inferior and as a corrupting element, from the time of Christian Socialist Karl Lueger to Hitler and the Nazi period. Describes the Holocaust period, the persecution and deportation of Austria's Jews, and the unwillingness of Austrians to deal with their Nazi and anti-Jewish past after the war, as shown by their reluctance to bring war criminals to trial and by Kurt Waldheim's election as president.
