From the Inside Flap

1,000 Jewish Recipes Are you cooking for the Jewish holidays and don't know what to serve or want to serve something new? Do you need inspiration for everyday kosher meals? If you want to cook delicious Jewish foods, 1,000 Jewish Recipes provides all the recipes and information you need—to celebrate Rosh Hashanah, Passover, Hanukkah, and many other holidays; to enliven Shabbat meals; and to create memorable dishes for family and friends any time. You'll find recipes for every occasion, plus information on the culinary origins of Jewish foods, how to keep a kosher kitchen, and how to stock your pantry. Award–winning cookbook author Faye Levy offers you a collection of Jewish recipes unmatched by any other. Her recipes reflect authentic flavors and traditions while being straightforward and easy–to–follow. There are clear descriptions of ingredients and methods, plus useful suggestions for substituting ingredients, saving time, or making recipes more healthful. Each recipe also features at–a–glance kosher symbols: M for Meat, D for Dairy, or P for Pareve. No matter what the occasion, there are wonderful recipes to explore. There are comforting classics such as: Matzo Ball Soup, Cheese Blintzes, Classic Matzo Brei, Friday Night Chicken, Cholent with Brisket, and Old–Fashioned Coffee Cake. You'll also find countless new temptations from around the world such as: Israeli Salad with Early Summer Herbs, Roman Fish with Pine Nuts and Raisins, Moroccan Cigars, Polish Cucumbers in Sour Cream, Tunisian Tuna and Pepper Salad, and Indian Vegetable Tzimmes. Faye Levy's knowledge of Jewish cooking offers you such riches! You'll find:
  • Six varieties of Passover haroset from Ashkenazic Haroset (with apples and cinnamon) to Persian Pear and Banana Haroset
  • Sixteen varieties of latkes from Classic Potato Latkes to Cajun Corn Latkes
  • Six varieties of hummus from Jerusalem Hummus to Country–Style Hummus to Spicy Tomato Hummus
  • Thirteen varieties of challah from Holiday Honey Challah to Onion–Sesame Braid
  • and much more!
Of course, beyond recipes, it is the shared traditions and history that connect people within a family, within a community, and within a culture, enriching the foods we eat. In 1,000 Jewish Recipes, Levy shares cultural insights, religious history, and personal anecdotes throughout the book, to enlighten and inspire you as you cook. Whether you already own Jewish cookbooks or this will be you first, 1,000 Jewish Recipes is the cookbook you can't do without.

Good cook book 16 Feb 2012
By Grandma
Format:Hardcover
I ordered this as my daughter has it and has produced some delicious dishes from it. It does not have any illustrations. Also for someone who is not Jewish some of the terminology and references are difficult to understand. However, the chicken soup recipe was stunning...and I am not a very confident cook. Lots of unusual herbs are used and alternatives to dairy, which might be useful. I am looking forward to trying out other dishes.

Winner of the 2000 National Jewish Book Award 8 Mar 2001
By Larry Mark - Published on Amazon.com
Format:Hardcover
Winner of the National Jewish Book Award 2000 (awarded March 2001). Ms Levy is a syndicated columnist with the LA Times and an experienced cookbook author. Her book contains new and classic Jewish recipes for life and nearly every holiday and Shabbat. It also includes 23 sample menus. Each recipe is tagged with either a (P)areve, (M)eat, or (D)airy tag. Chapters include those for Passover, Shavuot, the High Holidays, Sukkot, Hanukkah, Purim, Shabbat, and Appetizers, Salads, Soups, Dairy Specialties, Fish, Poultry, Meats, Vegetarian and Pareve Main Courses, Veg. Side Dishes, Noodle and Pasta dishes, Rice and Grain dishes, Breads, Desserts, and a section of basics, including flavorings, sauces, and 10 different types of stocks. Recipes among the 1,000 that I found most interesting including Persian Pear and Banana Haroset for Pesach; Farefl Stuffing with leeks and Carrots; Passover Turkey Schnitzel (incorrectly tagged as Pareve; it is meat); Onion Matza Brei; Spinach and Cottage Cheese Noodle Kugel; Macaroni and Cheese Kugel; Beet Salad with Apples and OJ; Gefilte Fish; Sea Bass with Saffron and Tomato Sauce; Turkey Tzimmes with Sweet Potatoes; Adi Levy's Kibbutz Honey Chicken (you partially roast it, then glaze it with soy and honey); a Meingue Topping; Sephardic Spinach Cakes; Queen Esther's Salad (lettuce, nuts and seeds to eat in the palace); Haman's Fingers; Alsatian Jewish Sauerkraut with Meat; Alsatian Kugelhopf cake; Mock Chopped Liver (one with cashews, one with lentils); Spicy Moroccan Fish Stew; Chicken with Olives; a Friday night Chicken with Cumin Tumeric and Pepper; two dafinas and eight cholents; Miami Style Sweet Potato Puree; at least six chopped liver recipes, 7 hummus, 7 knish, 6 matzo ball (one which is matzo and cholesterol free), 13 challah, 8 bagel, 4 pita, one dozen blintzes, and 5 potato salad recipes; and one for Egyptian Jewish Okra Salad. Now you can see why it won the award.

Comprehensive and contemporary 8 Mar 2002
By A Customer - Published on Amazon.com
Format:Hardcover
A very comprehensive and contemporary cookbook featuring traditional kosher cuisine and new classics. Includes all types of kosher cuisine (Sephardic, Ashkenazic, European, etc.). An excellent all around cookbook to have--our family cookbook "bible". I am not generally too fond of her cake recipes, but the "My Favorite Cheesecake" is fabulous! A must for the modern kosher cook!

The Only Jewish Cookbook You'll Ever Need 28 Sep 2000
By "baan52" - Published on Amazon.com
Format:Hardcover
Being the owner of over 100 cookbooks, it is rare when I find one that piques my interest as well as my palate. Faye Levy has done it again with this new addition to her stable of Kosher cookbooks. If you are looking for that "special" recipe that reminds you of the one that momma used to make or looking to try something to satisfy a more modern taste, chances are that you will find it here.
