We all know the drill: Nurture a successful food blog by adding consistently beautiful pictures and recipes worth filing away, attract a gaggle of loyal followers—then sign a cookbook deal. Sounds easy, no? We hear this story often enough, but it is rarely mentioned what kind of work and dedication goes into such a project. Jennifer Segal, 44, the Maryland-based chef, mom of two teenagers and the driving force behind the blog Once Upon a Chef , has hit this coveted milestone after nine years of diligent blogging, releasing a cookbook of the same name. The edge that Segal has over other bloggers-turned-cookbook-authors is her formal training as a chef. She is not home-taught. Segal, who was raised in an unaffiliated, alternative Jewish community and household, showcases Jewish influences on her blog as well as in her book. Beyond her modern American fare and recipes from different cultures—think Asian grilled beef satay in peanut sauce, and plenty of nonkosher recipes—she also features many dishes that reflect her Judaism.
