So you're sitting around one
nightrith a yen for some good
Jewish cooking, but your moth-
er is in Arizona and your moth-
er-in-law isn't speaking to you.
What to do?
Why not switch on your com-
puter and check out some of the
on-line Jewish and kosher recipe
databases?
Cyber-bon vivants long ago
discovered this intriguing fact:
the Internet, a kind of interac-
tive, do-it-yourself publisher, is
well suited to user-generated
cookbooks that can be browsed,
searched and copied by users
around the world.
To see how this works, check
out three Jewish cooking areas
that may improve the cluslity of
your cuisine.
On the Jewish Communica-
tion Network — a World Wide
Web site with all kinds of Jewish
goodies — a food section cur-
rently includes recipes ranging
from candied yams and tsimmes
to chocolate challah. Visitors are
invited to submit their own fa-
vorites.
Check it out at http:/
/www..jcn18.com/ and then follow
the menus to the food section.
Or try the Jewish CONENIuni-
ty Online section of American
Online, the much-in-the-news on-
line service. Here you'll find a
nicely categorized database of
recipes (dairy, meat, parve, hol-
iday fare, etc.), as well as the usu-
al articles on kashrut.
Most of the recipes here seem
to be copied from cookbooks, but
the JCOMM folks are trying to get
a user recipe database started.
You need to be an AOL sub-
scriber to get to the Jewish COM-
Munity Online; give AOL a call
at 1-800-729-4499 for a startup
disk.
Another calorically rich re-
source for Jewish cooks is the
Jewish Food List, an Internet
"mailing list" that will send reg-
ular updates, including recipes,
right to your electronic mailbox.
Or you can browse the list's
recipe archives — vast and
mouthwatering — by setting
your browser to: http://www.es-
kimo.com/jefffree/recipes/
If you like what you see, you
can sign up for the recipe mail-
ing list right on the Web site.
Bon Appetit! ❑
But you can acquire a remedi-
al education the easy way on the
World Wide Web by starting your
day with the World Zionist Or-
ganization's "This Month in Jew-
ish History" site..
The page opens with a calen-
dar of the current *month; click
on the date, and read some of the
events that occurred on that day
in ages past.
For example: On Jan. 17,
1670, the burghers of Metz de-
cided to get rid of all their Jews.
To that end, they concocted a rit-
ual murder charge against
Raphael Levy, a respected mem-
ber of the community.
Levy, needless to say, didn't
get a fancy L.A. trial; he was tor-
tured and burned alive. But the
end of the story wasn't quite so
bleak. The royal council later
called his death 'judicial murder"
and reversed the decision to ex-
pel the Jews.
Not surprisingly, a very high
proportion of the events listed on
the Web site involved expulsions,
pogroms and other disasters —
in other words, the warp and
woof of Jewish history.
The information, based on Be-.
yond Time and History by Eli
Birnbaum, is straightforward
and basic; you don't need a de-
gree in Jewish studies to follow.
So start your day off with some
Jewish education. Set your
browser to: http://www.orgil/en-
countr/hsthtm .

Bomb Suspect
Trial Begins
Moscow (JTA) — Trial proceed-
ings have begun against a man
accused of bombing the Jewish
community center in Yaroslavl.
AIL explosive charge equiva-
lent to more than 2 pounds of
TNT was used in April's attack
in Yaroslavl, which is located
about 130 miles northeast of
Moscow.
The bombing caused no in-
juries, but led to $40,000 in dam-
age to the community center.
Aleksandr Sypin, a 29-year-
old unemployed man, is facing
charges of hooliganism in the tri-
al, which is being held in
Yaroslavl.
If convicted, he could receive
a maximum of three years' in
prison.
Mr. Sypin was a member of
Derzhava, Russian for "Power,"
a small Yaroslavl-based group of
ultranationalist youths.
In the 1980s, he was a mem-
ber
of Pamyat, or "Memory,"
Jews have a long and fascinating
history, but most of us are which at the time was Russia's
shamefully ignorant of all but a largest ultranationalist, anti-Se-
mitic organization.
