Passover Cooking

With Passover just 10 days away (starts Friday night, April 6th), time is getting short to clean and prepare for the holiday.

Of course food plays an important role in every Jewish holiday, even Yom Kippur. Why just think, you spend a lot of time preparing the meal before the fast and much attention to what will be served at the break fast. See what I mean?

I've culled a number of really yummy recipes for you.


Here's one for Kosher for Passover AND vegan chocolate cake:

The latest issue of Reform Judaism Magazine has a recipe for Gefilte Fish. If you've never made your own, it's really not as difficult as you think:

Of course, there's the Matzah Ball--floaters or sinkers. You decide. And yes, there are ways to control how that happens:

Wishing you a ziessen and a Kasher Pesach - a sweet and Kosher Passover.
