Product Description

Whether it's a holiday, or Shabbat dinner, "What's on the menu?" is on everybody's mind. Ranging from the classic Ashkenazic Chicken Fricassee to the definitive Sephardic Chicken Marrakesh, The Hadassah Jewish Holiday Cookbook includes the best of the best traditional recipes from the celebrated cooks of Hadassah, the Jewish women's volunteer organization. In a culinary celebration of tradition, history, dedication, and faith, the more than 250 holiday recipes from great cooks in America and Israel present traditional favorites as well as modern twists on classic dishes. Readers will find nostalgic must-haves--from chicken soup to borscht and kreplach to kishka--along with favorite dishes updated for modern palates. This feast for the eyes and tastebuds is accompanied by the splendid writing of award-winning Jewish authors who offer their historical insights, sage advice, personal reminiscences, and engaging commentaries. Contributor include Susan R. Friedland, Edda Servi Machlin, Joan Nathan, Steven Raichlen, Claudia Roden, and Rabbi Robert Sternberg. History, passion, and tradition--and love--are the essential ingredients to what may become the definitive guide to Jewish holiday cooking.

One of my favorite cookbooks

Review Date: November 23, 2008

Reviewer: Pegge K. Tennant, Harrisburg, PA

This cookbook will never reach your bookshelf. It will remain close by for reading, education, and cooking purposes. It is SO delightful, and each recipe I have tried has been delicious. Our favorites are Pineapple-Ricotta Kugel (to live for), Ukrainian Borscht (please try it, you'll like it), Crockpot Cholent (this shouldn't be legal, it is so good), Haroset from Suriname (no complaints from anyone on this - delicious), and Chicken Marrakesh (great for company - feeds 10-12).

All of the Hadassah cookbooks that you can get your hands on are worth having. There is a real community of people who love good food behind them. I have over 1,000 cookbooks in my collection, and this "Jewish Holiday Hadassah Cookbook is in the top 5 of all of them.

Hadassah Cookbook - Identical to 2002 Edition

Reviewer: jschliss, Highland Park, NJ United States

Although this is a great cookbook - it is identical to the 2002 Edition. The ONLY difference is the cover picture. Every other page is identical. I recommend this cookbook if you do not already own it!

We bought this book to be the prize in a drawing for our Chanukah party on the 28th of Dec. My husband peeked in the book and loves most of the recipes, but (obviously) we haven't made any yet.
