Customer Rating:      Summary: Passover by Design can be used year-round! Comment: Let me start by saying, "I love, love, LOVE this cookbook!" The beautiful layout of the recipes are easy to follow and the numerous professional photos by John Uher look wonderfully delectable. Fishbein also offers great innovative ideas and tips for seder preparation that effectively blend contemporary trends with family traditions.
The gourmet recipes have been scrumptiously prepared and written for elegance and simplicity, while remaining kosher in accordance with Jewish law. Plus, over 130 of the recipes are gluten-free. I'm not of the Jewish faith, so the first time I used some of the recipes was during Easter, which included Cream of Sweet Potato Soup with Roasted Pecans, Cranberry Chicken, and Butterscotch Crunch Bars. Mmmm! I never knew matzo boards could taste so yummy! Since then I've also made the Oranges Stuffed with Cranberry-Cherry Relish, which would be great side dish for Thanksgiving dinner, and the Portobello Stacks with Honey-Balsamic Ketchup.
This wonderful cookbook has definitely taken a spot in the top ten of my must-have favorites and I know I will enjoy it for many, many years!

Customer Rating:      Summary: Passover Perfect!!! Comment: It's always hard to find good recipes for Passover....look no further Susie Fishbein has done it again!!!!
Customer Rating:      Summary: Fabulous Comment: I love this book. The recipes are terrific. It's beautiful! I've lent it to others who have then ordred it for themselves. It's the new Bible for Passover recipes.
Customer Rating:      Summary: There is Mighty Fine Eating Between These Pages Comment: I am not religious, observe no conventions other than exchanging gifts at Christmas. That said, why am I writing a review of this book? For me there is only one reason for owning a cookbook and that is the recipes inside. Either they're good or they're not. You cook up a dish, if it's tasty, if your family or company like it, then you try another, then another. If you and yours get on with the recipes, then you have a winner, if not, well then you don't.
This book is a winner, but before I go into the recipes, I'd like to say that the book is elegantly done, the photographs are mouthwateringly gorgeous and the book has been laid out very professionally. You can tell Ms. Fishbein, Mr. Uher and their publishers really cared about this project.
But do the recipes pass muster? Yeah, I gotta say they do. My first outing with this book was the Meat and Potato Roll. It was easy to do, so easy that I wondered why it was in a cookbook. I made it without a hitch and it was divine. So a couple days later I decided to try something a bit more complicated and did the Portobello Stacks with Honey Balsamic Ketchup for a starter and jeepers were they ever good. This was something I never would have thought of making by myself and now it's something I'll be making for years to come. That alone makes this book a gem as far as I'm concerned.
But wait! There's more. The Caramelized Parsnip Carrot Soup is simply to die for, as are the Turmeric Matzo Balls. You know in my wildest of wildest dreams I never would have thought I'd be doing Matzo Balls, but I'm into this cookbook now and I can't get out. I suppose one of the reasons for my captivity is the photographs. One look and you're drooling. You just gotta start cooking.
In conclusion, this book passes with flying colors the only test a cookbook should have and that's the recipes inside it. Follow these recipes and you'll please not only your family and company, but yourself as well. There is mighty fine eating between these pages and I'll be using this cookbook for years to come.
