"She explains to the uninitiated that Jewish food is more than just chopped liver, chicken soup, blintzes and bagels, though these and many other familiar delights are all in the book - explained in detail with carefully tested recipes for all who want to know the real way to cook the traditional Sabbath and festival foods, and especially perhaps for young brides and others who for the first time are setting up their own homes.
But Judy Jackson offers an enlightened view of Kosher cooking and a wealth of new ideas for both the experienced cook and the beginner - with recipes for such a cheese and almond squares, fried chicken pick-ups, rolled fish in whole tomatoes, sausage puff rings, chestnut and chocolate gateau, black cherry roll and butter pastries, no one need say that Jewish cooking is either restricting or predictable."
