Book Description:
Jewish Cooking
Many
traditional Jewish recipes, Southwestern
cuisine and good American dishes. All are
made with kosher ingredients and specify
whether meat or dairy.
SHALOM ON THE RANGE
is a carefully chosen collection of favorite
recipes from Colorado's Jewish community. It
blends contemporary recipes you can cook
every day, creative new ideas for holidays,
and classic recipes passed down from
generation to generation. The recipes are
all observant of kosher dietary laws and
oriented to today's busy and
health-conscious cook. Adding a unique
flavor to the cookbook are its warm memories
and stories. For beginners as well as
experienced cooks, it is a resource for
celebrating Jewish heritage and traditions -
with a dash of Western flavor.

Create
treasured food memories with this collection
of favorite recipes from Colorado's Jewish
community. These recipes are all Kosher and
contain nutritional analyses. Features
Jewish holiday menus and a special Passover
section. Learn successful high altitude
bread making by hand or with a bread
machine. Challah for Shabbos!
Beyond
the cute title, this is a good compilation
of 350 donated recipes that may surprise
Easterners who don't give much thought to
substantial Jewish communities in the
western states. The subtitle is "A Roundup
of Recipes and Jewish Traditions from
Colorado Kitchens.'' It was put together by
an organization raising funds for a
Denver-area Jewish continuum-of-care
organization for the elderly.
The
spiral-bound, sepia-toned book opens with an
introduction to Jewish dietary laws, along
with suggested menus for major holidays, but
that doesn't limit the potential enjoyment.
Many of the dishes are for any palate.
The gamut
of recipes runs from an excellent section on
breads to some regionally popular dishes
(Copper Mountain turkey chili, Telluride
apple pie), a host of seafood dishes heavily
dominated by salmon, and homey little
anecdotes dropped in here and there. The
type face is clear and legible, each recipe
boxed by a shaded area for quick reference,
and the index is well-thought-out.
