    Dedication

    Without Marie and Irv, members of the Greatest Generation, who raised me with love, understanding, and high expectations, I would not be the kosher ham that I am today. My children, Joshua, Michael, and Shelly are part of a new generation. They have always believed in me and stood by me through thick and thin. They have listened to their Abba sing through decades of services. Now that’s love! Susie continues to be a true inspiration. She puts up with all my shtick while showing me great love and affection. I would like to dedicate this book to them and to the generations of people yet to come. We are part of a chain made up of the past, the present, and the future. May the links we forge be strong and built on the wisdom of those who came before us.

    INTRODUCTION

    When I was ten years old my parents and I took a trip to Miami to visit relatives. From the backseat of the car I listened to them sing songs they loved. My dad really couldn’t carry a tune, but singing with my mom he wasn’t so bad! After a few minutes, I decided to join in. They were having so much fun and I wanted to be part of it. With a big voice, I let it all out! My father almost immediately pulled the car to the side of the road. My mom looked at my dad, my dad looked at my mom, and they both turned to look at me. Then they said the words I will remember for the rest of my life. My God, you can really sing! You could say my singing career began on that day!

    You might ask, What does singing have to do with cooking and keeping kosher? The answer is everything!

    As a teenager, I would come home to the delightful smell of the meal my mom was making for dinner. I would always ask, What are we eating tonight? One day after telling me what she was cooking up she said, Taste this. What do you think it needs? From then on, I started to help her with dinner after school. I was always so happy I would start singing while we cooked.

    After my bar mitzvah I was asked to join my synagogue choir. As a teenager, I found spirituality through Jewish music. For me it was a direct path to God. Nothing I do in my life today is possible without the help of God. And everything I do has spirituality within it. Whether singing, playing an instrument, worshiping, or preparing a meal, everything connects to God.

    There is a phrase found in Eastern philosophy, Mind, body, and spirit. It forms a triangle that is unbroken. I didn’t know it as a teenager, but I was making my own triangle: music, spirituality, and food. They are all a part of me. My faith in God, my musical talents, and my love for food are the three most important things, aside from family, in my life. That is why I describe myself not just as Mitch, but Cantor Mitch, the Singing Chef. It is my great pleasure to combine my triangle of belief to give you a fun and exciting cookbook.
