This cookbook is a real treat to use. The recipes do not call for expensive and difficult to find items. Best of all the recipes are all wonderful and sure to become your staple foods. A kosher kitchen is not complete without this book.

Norene Gilletz's cookbooks are probably the only ones I have for which the recipes NEVER have to be tweaked, and can be tested for important company. That's because she thoroughly perfects and tests each recipe before publication to ensure that it is as fail-safe and delicious as possible. I have made many of the recipes from this book, and each has been wonderful.
Although her books are always described as kosher (with an obvious appeal to anyone who keeps kosher), be assured that EVERYONE will love these delectable recipes.
(No, I have nothing to do with either Ms. Gilletz or her publisher ... and am not even Jewish or Canadian. I'm just a thoroughly delighted customer who feels completely confident in recommending this awesome cookbook.)
HIGHEST POSSIBLE RECOMMENDATION!

This is the best cookbook for general/traditional Ashkenazi cooking

I grew up in Toronto and my grandmother used this book as well as my mother, if you had a real bubby who spoke yiddish and made her own wine and you know what grebanas and kishka is than this is a good book for you. This book is not gourmet by any means. Some recipes call for ginger ale, onion soup mix, and lots of ketchup.... my kind of cook book.
