5.0 out of 5 stars
Definitely a Classic,
By
This review is from: Classic Kosher Cooking (Hardcover)
Whenever I am invited into a home I have to peek at the cookbook collection, the way some guests peek in the medicine chest. I have found Sara Finkel's book in many, many homes and I have yet to find a copy that isn't well used, stained and dog eared. One friend recently went out and bought a second copy so she could keep it separate for Passover. I think this just about says it all. There are certainly recipes in this book that didn't appeal to me, but even those I have been told are big hits. Her meat recipes tend to the sweet (she uses grape jam in one roast recipe, Coca Cola in another) which is not to my taste, but her chicken and turkey recipes are all winners and her cookies and cakes are unsurpassed. Most of my friends started out borrowing from one or another, or copying recipes out longhand, but one by one we all broke down and bought our own copy. No one I know has been sorry. I strongly recommend this cookbook to anyone, Kosher or not, who is interested in having a repetoire of good, easy, surefire recipes to make at home.

5.0 out of 5 stars
One of the best cookbooks!,
By Debbie Zioni (Herzliya Pituach, Israel) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Classic Kosher Cooking (Hardcover)
This is by far the best and most useful cookbook in my collection. Sara Finkel's recipes are true and exact and if followed correctly come out great. The recipes are from scratch and even though there are no pictures, every recipee I've made from this book has come out delicious. I've given this book to others as gifts and even had to purchase an additional copy for Passover, since my regular one was so used up.
Highly reccommended for the novice as well as the expert.
