"When I was 18 years old, I spent the summer in Israel, working on a beautiful kibbutz," Gail Simmons recalls. "My first job there was in the chicken house, gathering eggs. I was then transferred to the kitchen, where I was charged with making eggs every morning for hundreds of hungry fellow workers. I developed an ardent affection for humble egg dishes like shakshuka, often known in Italy as Eggs in Purgatory. It's a popular dish throughout the Middle East and perfect for any meal of the day."
