In this episode of the Kitchen Confidante Podcast, we're whisked into the vibrant world of modern Jewish cuisine with Micah Siva, a San Francisco-based chef, dietitian, and the creative mind behind the blog Nosh with Micah. Micah takes us on a culinary journey that blends the rich traditions of Jewish food with a plant-forward twist. She shares the charming story of her first cooking memory — making thimble cookies with her grandmother — and her path from culinary school to food blogging. Micah discusses her new book, "Nosh: Plant-Forward Recipes Celebrating Modern Jewish Cuisine," and the personal and cultural inspirations that fueled its creation. From vegan matzo ball soup challenges to creating carrot “lox,” Micah's passion for food and storytelling is as nourishing as the dishes she creates.  Discover more about Micah and her culinary adventures at https://www.noshwithmicah.com Follow Micah on Instagram: @noshwithmicah Get your copy of "Nosh" and explore more in the Podcast Show Notes: https://kitchenconfidante.com/nosh-plant-forward-jewish-recipes-with-micah-siva
