Soup--A Kosher Collection is an excellent book! I never realized kosher soups were so easy to prepare and so delicious. Ms Reiss has included a recipe for every occasion; there is a huge selection of soups for meat eaters, vegetarians, and vegans. Everything from old favorites such as chicken soup to new gems like curried red lentil soup or saffron garlic fish soup. The blueberry and rosemary soup was a fantastic surprise! I just bought the book and have made 12 of the over 150 recipes. Each recipe I made was a big hit with my family. The chocolate soup was a great treat. Ms Reiss' easy to follow recipes are accompanied by excellent definitions and cooking tips. I already bought a few copies for holiday gifts this year.

If you love soup this book is for you. I have already tried several of the recipes in the book and they were all fantastic - easy to follow instructions and great variety. I would recommend this book to anybody and have already bought copies for gifts!

I use this book frequently ; the recipes are excellent and often original. I do keep kosher , so it is a bonus to have both kosher and original soup recipes without slices of bacon etc strewn around the pages; besides , it gives excellent ratings on dairy/ parve/meat and kosher for Passover ( very important , that last one ) - and it even told me what to expect from a "medium" onion or potato, something I need to know, since clearly the sizes of products are different in Europe in relation to those in the USA. Usually no prefab ingredients, too; most of the prefab brands would not be available to me. So a big YES for this one !

I do not need to keep kosher but I bought this book because I love soup. It's a really good book. The recipes are easy to follow and she tells you the amount of servings in each recipe, if it's freezable, and the nutrition breakdown per serving. Again, I love this book. Get it for yourself and your friends.

a nice selection of soups for the Kosher consumer. Good directions, nice pictures. would recommend to fellow soup lovers!

This book I got for my girlfriend since she didn't have any soup cookbooks and she loves it. I liked the way the pages were laid out and in the beginning the book gives really good general instructions on how to do different cooking techniques that will be used in some of the recipes. It is a very pretty book and the pages and printing are good quality. Additionally it has TONS of really delicious-looking and interesting soup recipes that I would never have thought of before. Great Buy!

This book was given to me as a wonderful gift. I have yet to try a recipe from it that hasn't worked, and there has only been one that we weren't very keen on (roasted garlic as it happens). All of the recipes are simple to follow, and I find it really useful to have a nutritional breakdown of each recipe, as I can plan my meals accordingly. Love making large batches e.g. sweet potato soup and freezing, perfect for cold winter days. This book is now the only one I refer to if I am looking for soup, and her kneidals are also yummy. Highly recommended for anyone looking for kosher soup recipes, so useful to have it separated by milk, meat, and fish, and dessert, and the fruit soups were great on many hot summer Shabbat meals!

This is the only cook book in my house that I actually use. Seriously, I'm not much of a cook :) But all the recipes I have tried from this book were delicious, and there's a soup for whatever your mood.
