My rating: 4 of 5 stars

This book defines the statement, “Don’t judge a book by its cover”. In the days of gorgeous photography, beautiful bindings and so forth, this little book stands out for its content. There are no photos, a simple typeface and no table of contents, but the recipes are perfection. While this is a Jewish cookbook, anyone can enjoy the delightful recipes inside.

The book is broken down into Appetizers & Party Treats; Meat, Poultry & Stuffings; Fish, Eggs & Cheese; Vegetables, Side Dishes, Salads & Dressings; Bread, Rolls & Muffins; Cakes & Icings; Pies & Desserts; Cookies, Squares & Candies; Jewish Festivals; Miscellaneous; One Helping, Please! (Dieting recipes); and Microwave Recipes. While there is no table of contents, there is a good index.

If you’re looking for good recipes for good food, this book has got you covered. No bells and whistles, just great food done right.

I received a copy of this book from Whitecap Books for my honest review. All thoughts and opinions are my own.
