Welcome to Times Will Tell, The Times of Israel’s weekly feature podcast.
This week, we speak to culinary expert, cookbook author and chef Adeena Sussman, whose bestselling book “Sababa” took Israeli cooking and translated it for the larger, global audience.
We catch Sussman after a week of culinary arts workshops at a summer camp in the Pocono Mountains of Pennsylvania, where she brought her homemade pita, hummus and roasted cherry tomatoes, as well as fruity gazoz — a fizzy soda water drink elevated with fresh fruit and homemade syrups — chocolate-dipped dates topped with flaky salt and preserved lemons to the campers, counselors and staff members.
Sussman talks about translating her ingredients and recipes for audiences outside of Israel, an ongoing experience that keeps her cooking and teaching fresh and dynamic, particularly as she moves toward the final stages of her next cookbook, “Shabbat.”
She also speaks about the new experience of teaching kids about food and the joys of summer camp, from dining hall meals to the pleasures of local ice cream stands.

Bridging the US-Israel divide
While the heart of The Times of Israel’s work takes place in Israel, so many of Jerusalem’s actions are influenced by those in Washington’s halls of power.
As ToI’s US bureau chief, I work to gain access to decision-makers in the United States government so our readers can understand the US-Israel relationship beyond the platitudes evident in public statements.
I'm proud of our ability to inform without sensationalizing, our dedication to be fast while ensuring accuracy, and our determination to present Israel's entire, complex story.
Your support through The Times of Israel Community helps us continue to keep readers around the world properly informed about the critical Israel-US relationship. Do you appreciate our news coverage? If so, please join the ToI Community today.
