 The Art of Jewish Cooking February 26, 2008
The Art of Jewish Cooking (Grossinger) has been and will always be a favorite of mine! VERY easy instructions and VERY VERY Jewish - lol. The only thing that you may want to substitute in the recipes -- the 'fat' type products (chicken fat (!) shortening) that can be easily replaced using any type of oil/healthy-type spread(s). I've used and loved the recipes and adore this book! 10 Stars ! ! ! The Art of Jewish Cooking

This is the cookbook that started it all and the book by which all other Jewish cookbooks aspire. It is homey and the recipes contained in its pages are sure to please your old-world longings or handed-down memories. Be forewarned that none of the original recipes are low-cal, low-fat anything and if you indulge, you can almost hear your arteries slamming shut. But just one taste of a light, fluffy matzo-ball . . . let me tell you, it's a machiah!

How happy I am to see "The Art of Jewish Cooking" still available to buy, although used, as my aged copy is well overdue for a replacement. The faded brown pages, now coverless and missing an index, still sport a spine, which notes the quaint price of 60. The dishes taste the same as those that my respective Romanian and Ukrainian grandmothers carried across the ocean in the early 1900s. I feel as if my grandmothers are in the kitchen with me as Jennie Grossinger has compiled their easy-to-follow delicious recipes augmented by typical menus and informative descriptions of the Jewish holidays. This modest book competes favorably with its glossy, richly photographed, modern cousins for it preserves the nostalgic flavors that are the essence of the European Jewish cuisine.

I have been using this cookbook for close to 30 years, and have worn out several paperback editions, so I finally got a hardcover!!!!!!!!!!I use this cook book the most of all my Jewish cookbooks because it's just like my grandmother's and my mother's cooking. The recipes are easy and very traditional, and can be adapted to low fat methods. I recommend this cookbook very highly, and I think it should be reprinted and made more widely available.

When I was away at college, I continually called my grandmother about recipes. One day, a large envelope came from her and this book dropped out.I have many Jewish cookbooks and all are pretty good but I always go back to this book for food like my great-grandmother and my grandma made. Jennie Grossinger was the brains behind the kitchen at Grossinger's in The Catskill Mountains of New York. The recipes are well-written, easy to understand and delicious everyone.
