The Jewish Holiday Baker: Recipes for Breads, Cakes, and Cookies for All the Holidays and Any Time of the Year

As a Fourth Generation "Closeted" Jew,I am Always Interested in Celebrations.{We were 'Reformed Methodist' due to Persecution in a small minded town}.Mrs.Nathan explains everything in minute detail in a lively discussion.As if Anyone is sitting across from Her with Tea and a "Rugelah".Her Joy of Family and Food in that Order is Bountifull.Never have read Any cookbook so well thought and delivered to Not require Questions at Grocer's or Judaic friends.Since this is not one of first books purchased,Am fortunant to glide through a sense of Order and utterly Divine Prose.This is a Gift for any Faith.Recipes are truly worthy as Gifts to Others to Nourish and If Interested Understanding across the "borders" that divide People.Rather foolishly in One's Perspective.{This My View and does Not come from Amazon or Its Partners}.Though,Yes Was purchased via Amazon and Their Fabulous Partners in Books.Thank You Always...{from appetisers to desserts this is a variety of mouthwatering recipes for all}.

If you are Jewish and have no Bubbie to show you how to cook Jewish food, you must get this book. Joan Nathan has gathered a group of recipes from several different sources to turn you into a genuine Jewish cook. We all know Jews love to eat, or is it live to eat. Here is your chance to shine on every Jewish holiday. The recipes are easy to follow and they are not complicated. I recommend this book to all who wish to participate in the Jewish Heritage of holiday cooking.

If you've ever wanted to create those delectable pastries we buy at the pastry shop, this book is for you. Old time favorites right from your kitchen. This book is always on my coffee table. Outstanding book!!!

Joan Nathan is a great cook, but not a good baker. She did find some great people to write the book. However, the book needs pictures and a more interesting layout.After buying this, I bought "Inside the Jewish Bakery." I've been baking through that instead.

Pretty good recipes but not my favorite Jewish cookbook.

Nothing like Jewish cooking and baking books...recipes use natural, fresh ingredients.

Can never go wrong with a book by Joan Nathan! Reliable, well-written recipes.
