SUMMARY:Cooking Up History: Nora Rubel on The Settlement Cook Book
DESCRIPTION:One night only: A conversation with Jewish foodways expert\, Nora Rubel!\nTuesday\, October 6th | 6pm | $45\nDon’t miss this very special event at the Roadhouse with author and historian Nora Rubel\, presented in collaboration with the EMU Center for Jewish Studies! Rubel is coming to Ann Arbor all the way from Rochester to be interviewed by Zingerman’s co-founder Ari Weinzweig about her new book\, Recipes for the Melting Pot: The Lives of The Settlement Cook Book. \nFor more than a century\, The Settlement Cook Book has been a fixture in American kitchens. First published in Milwaukee in 1901 by Jewish women seeking to help immigrant families navigate American life\, the cookbook became much more than a collection of recipes. It offered a window into immigration\, assimilation\, Jewish identity\, women’s lives\, and the changing meaning of American food. \nIn Recipes for the Melting Pot\, Rubel explores the fascinating history and enduring legacy of this iconic cookbook\, revealing the people and stories behind its pages—and what its evolution tells us about America itself. \nCome hear Rubel and Weinzweig explore the intersection of food\, culture\, immigration\, and identity\, and discover how a humble community cookbook became a remarkable record of American history. We will also enjoy delicious appetizers\, including one exclusively crafted from Rubel’s book! \nPresented in collaboration with: \n \n  \nAbout the Author\nNora L.
