This first paperback edition of Jewish Cooking for All Seasons by Laura Frankel collects more than 150 creative, convenient, and seasonal kosher dishes. From everyday meals to holiday
favorites, this book celebrates and updates Jewish cooking with innovative recipes that use fresh, seasonal ingredients.
When Chef Frankel opened her first restaurant in 1999, she was driven not only by her love of cooking, but also by the desire to prove that kosher food can be as delicious and exciting as any
other type of contemporary cuisine. The same goes in her own kitchen. When her family decided to keep kosher, they gave up eating pork, shellfish, and the combination of meat and dairybut
that didn’t mean they wanted to sacrifice flavor.
Fresh and top-quality ingredients are key to Frankel’s cooking at the Wolfgang Puck Kosher Catering and Café at Chicago’s Spertus Institute. So inJewish Cooking for All Seasons she
groups 150 delicious recipes by season, allowing home cooks to create wonderful meals year-round—from spring’s asparagus and goat cheese lasagna and summer’s heirloom tomato salad to fall’s
roasted butternut squash bisque and winter’s braised veal shanks with Moroccan spices. Frankel also groups recipes by holidays, providing menus for Passover, Rosh Hashanah, Hanukkah, and
more.
Every recipe has make-ahead information for holiday or Shabbat preparation, plus a short introduction that includes tips, serving ideas, or information to heighten your guest’s appreciation
of the dish. Featuring Frankel’s signature blend of convenience and globe-spanning flavors, these recipes are designed to be kosher, yet accessible to eaters of all backgrounds. Anyone
looking for fresh, seasonal meals to please family and friends on any occasion will findJewish Cooking for All Seasons an inspiring resource in the kitchen.
