I am so pleased with all of the incredible recipes and ideas which have been generated in this thread about how we all observe the food aspects of Passover! We have our own personal family traditions and observe in many different ways but a common thread runs through all of this: how a family celebration can resonate in all locations, our homes, with our families in how we retell the tale of the exodus from Egypt to freedom .. very much a message for 2006, as we all know ... Thanking each and every one of you for your input, your recipes and ideas, your warmth and for adding to the beauty of this holiday .. if I forget to say so in the busy days to come, please accept my gratitude! And, after all of the excitement of the first two days, please post as your observance level permits ... and a picture or two might be a nice touch as well ... thanks again for this community which we have created through our efforts at this festive holiday season ... Now I find that I am reallllly tired .. how Pam Reiss does it and blogs at the same time only serves to reinforce my personal belief that women are such terrific multitaskers!! but then you all knew that ... Hag Sameach to each of you and your loved ones, Gifted Gourmet

Kol ha Kavod, Pam, on doing a blog in the midst of one of the most labor-intensive Jewish holidays yet!

I can envision nothing wrong with using those boneless chicken breasts .. as a matter of fact: you might even wish to stuff them before glazing with the apricot/currant preserves .. here is one such recipe... Yet another recipe for Lemon Chicken Cutlets .. replace the dry breadcrumbs called for with matzah meal ... Passover Chicken Milanese is yet another boneless chicken breast option ... scroll down to the luscious Chicken Kiev

review on Cooks.comThis looks incredibly enticing!

SF Gate takes on Passover in two foods Passover gets to the root of the matter Recipe for Firefly Bicolor Horseradish ... Recipe for Cinnamon-Scented Artichoke Chicken Saute ... working link to Recipezaar: Chocolate Expresso Torte... see Miraklegirl's post above now this looks like a real "find"! Thanks!!

The book, encore: NYTimes review of this book Ain't this the all-time truth: Thanks, again, Julia!

I read this recently about trends in the food business for 2006 ... depends upon what publication one is reading: Wellness Foods Specialty Cafes Textures in Foods BBQ and Ethnic Cuisines Organic Foods one source says ... Tea Online Specialty Foods Do-It-Yourself Meal Preparation One-Product Restaurants Chocolate Cafes another source thinks this ... another source is certain that we'll see ...

Thanks for this, Michelle!

and the recipe is where, Michelle? Is that the one with the chocolate in this thread?

I am in complete agreement with you on your analysis of this, gruyere ... and I find it quite exciting that Michelin will be "covering" the Bay Area with their truly critical eye (and tongue!) and will be offering insight and a culinary comprehension missing from Zagat ...

A sponge cake is a traditional Passover favorite and contains no nuts usually ... as for making a cake nut-free? Make any cake and just skip adding nuts or seeds .. should be simple.... plain fudgey brownies ... my mother can't eat nuts either so I just don't use them .. no one even mentions the "loss" ... even the charoses I make for Mom is nut-free! Kosher Cookingmany of these will be fine without nuts ...

CNN Travel Interesting? What is your thinking on this new guide?

Everyone who makes a tongue dish usually peels it ... which takes care of those pesky papillae ...

but wait, here's the produce in Maine!! of course produce ripens differently depending upon the location ...

one source but simplistic more from Seasonal Chef Hope this helps ...

Welcome to the SE Forum, whifflechef, and we greatly appreciate your information on Nashville!

The first answer can be explained most fully here The second response is: I did .. check out the post.

Joyce Goldstein's Cucina Ebraica contains two of my favorite Passover recipes: Sweet and sour Squash Roast Chicken with oranges, lemons, and ginger Italian Passover recipes for both Seders Minestra di Riso per Pesach Passover Chicken Soup with Rice Muggine in Bianco Striped Sea Bass in Gelatin Spinaci Saltati Sauteed Spinach Capretto per Pesach Passover Kid Matza Coperta A Matza Omelet Ricciarelli di Siena Sienese marzipan pastries delicately scented with orange Second Night: Minestra di Sfoglietti per Pesach Passover Pasta Soup Spigola Arrosto Roast Snapper. Artichokes Torta del Re King's Cake, a heavenly almond cake a bit of background on Passover in Italy

source from last summer: Currently: from Frieda's website Question for you: is this something desirable? I always think that the natural colors of foods, especially sushi, are appetizing in their own simple and pristine way .. or am I alone in not finding color wraps an interesting phenomenon?

If you continue to cook in the same manner as you do currently, John, surely someone on some travel & food site will drop in and pronounce 33 Liberty "a hidden treasure worthy of national recognition" ... but unsure when this might occur ... there must be a Michelin Guide covering the delicacies to be found in their Meat & Threes of the Known World ... edition.

Interestingly, I am even more keenly aware of things which might bother me now but which I had failed to consider previously ... .. Maybe now I will avoid anything made with monkfish and peachskins or tomato innards and which is served on a spoon or stick ... Truly! fear grips my heart! Maybe I should have thought this through more carefully ...
