Kosher by Design Entertains: Fabulous Recipes for Parties and Every Day

I purchased this book right before Sukkot, at my (21yr. old) daughter's request - before she was due to arrive for the holiday. Not only did it arrive (early) in time for the holiday - but the recipes were great!. We brought one of the salads to a friend for one of the meals, and she insisted on getting the recipe from us. The recipes are doable - and come out delicious. Would definitely recommend this book.

Usually when I buy cookbooks, I read them try maybe 1 or 2 items and then they collect dust. But this one hasn't left my counter since the day I bought it. I highly recommend purchasing this book; and not only for the food- but the table settings are brilliant

Like most guys, I never know what to give as a gift. So when my mother's birthday approached, I felt that old tightness in my chest. Then I happened to see this new cookbook. It inspired me. So - I gave it to Mom and I think it made up for all the lousy gifts I gave her over the years - starting with that toad when I was five! She calls me almost daily to tell me what new recipe she tried. And I get invited over to taste test everything now! Thanks, Susie Fishbein. A therapist couldn't have improved things to this degree!

This cookbook provides everything we have come to expect from one of Susie Fishbein's creations, and then some. The pictures are beautiful, the recipes are unique and straight-forward, and the results are fantastic. The 'pastrami stuffed turkey roast with pineapple glaze' has already become a family favorite! I had to pry the cookbook out of my husband's hands when I first brought it home - he was reading it like a beloved novel. I especially appreciate the resource guide - it is so helpful and really makes the book user-friendly. Thanks Susie - can't wait for the next one!

If I buy twelve do I get a bakers dozen because my friends keep swiping my copy that I cannot seem to keep one on my shelf?! If you can get past the blinding beauty of this book and start cooking, you would be even more impressed. I have shocked myself at what a great cook I have become because of this fabulous book. The recipes are unusual, interesting and easy. I have never had better soups and I have tried them ALL. I am always looking for new chicken recipes and the Roasted Garlic Chicken stuffed with dried fruit and nuts is my current favorite and out of this world. I love the carefully worded explanantions that go with each recipe and the helpful tips that the author gives. I love the resource guide in the back and I cannot say enough about this book! Do yourself a favor and buy this book...or twelve of them!
