Great Jewish Food, Without the Guilt

Here s the ideal cookbook for anyone who wants great recipes for matzo balls, mouthwatering kugel, or perfect brisket, but who can live without the how-to-host-a-seder advice or the laws-of-keeping-kosher overtones that dominate so much of Jewish cookery. The Mensch Chef is not just a cookbook; it s the new Bible (or maybe Talmud) of Kitchen Judaism, whose great questions don t concern eternal life, salvation, or evidence of a divine being, but rather: What s the difference between kreplach and knaidelach? How do you roast a chicken? Can you really make Passover cake that s edible?
