I have had this book for years and I keep going back to it for inspiration and more recipes. I love the variety in it and how I can always find something for the season. The little briefs on the Jewish Holidays are very helpful for reviewing my own memory and also explaining to other people whoa re less familiar with the Jewish Traditions.
I have used it as a present many times...too bad this book is out of print.

I've been using this book for a couple of years now, and still find myself surprised by the range of recipes and flavors. The organization is clear and straightforward, none of the recipes I've tried have been laborious or time-consuming, and even new dishes disappear at the table like family favorites. A great resource.
