A group of Forsyth County women is ringing in the Jewish new year with some old recipes.Madeleine Polan and Janice Liederman were part of a 10-woman committee who created “From Generation to Generation,” a cookbook filled with more than 300 traditional Jewish family recipes passed down from their mothers and grandmothers.“It’s nice to remember and to share and it’s something we can pass on to our daughters and granddaughters so they can also remember and share,” Polan said. “It’s just been a wonderful tribute.”Liederman said the group worked hard to make sure the book was available before Rosh Hashanah, the Jewish new year which begins tonight. Families will celebrate the year 5773 in the Jewish calendar, which dates back to the creation of Adam and Eve, not the standard U.S. calendar.
