Divine Kosher Cuisine

Book excerpt: "DIVINE KOSHER CUISINE" is a cookbook for everyone who loves cooking, eating and entertaining. Americans are adventuresome eaters and cooks, the first to try something new and eager to expand their palates with ethnic foods. The big surprise with kosher recipes is their familiarity. They comprise all the many kinds of food we love to eat, including traditional American dishes, regional favorites and all the popular international and ethnic foods, among the Jewish fare. Kosher recipes do not use pork or shellfish, or mix milk and meat products- a Jewish dietary prohibition. Non-kosher cooks can substiture with their favorite ingredients. Many of the recipes offer contempory versions that reflect dietary trends with nondairy, vegetarian and trimmed down ingredients.
