The Art of Jewish Cooking (Grossinger) has been and will always be a favorite of mine! VERY easy instructions and VERY VERY Jewish - lol. The only thing that you may want to substitute in the recipes -- the 'fat' type products (chicken fat (!) shortening) that can be easily replaced using any type of oil/healthy-type spread(s). I've used and loved the recipes and adore this book! 10 Stars ! ! ! The Art of Jewish Cooking

I had this book for years. The pages were tattered and yellowed. I never thought I would find a new copy. The recipes are delicious. I am so grateful that I found this book. I bought a copy for a friend. When I gave it to her she held it as if it were a treasure

5.0 out of 5 stars A great basic cookbook, August 12, 2011

This review is from: The Art of Jewish Cooking (Mass Market Paperback)

This little cookbook has some great very basic recipes that I go back to again and again -- like gedempte fleisch -- it's the closest to my (fabulous cook) grandmother's old country recipe for brisket and a lot of other classics. It's got the real thing. The recipes for cucumber salads, chicken soup, tzimmeses, latkes - are excellent.

Some of the recipes are silly -- Americanizations from the 40s and 50s that must have been used in the Catskills -- but who uses all the recipes in any cookbook? They are like little glimpses of lod sepia toned photos.

I use this book often. It was the first cookbook I ever had (some boy gave the paperback to my sister when they were on a kibbutz ulpan and I inherited it).

Happy cooking.
