Filled with the flavors of Italy, Provence, North Africa, Asia, California, and Israel, these original, easy-to-prepare recipes take kosher dining to a new, contemporary level of sophistication. With more than two decades of professional food-writing and wine-making experience, Jeff and Jodie Morgan share their favorite recipes and—in a first for a kosher cookbook—detailed suggested wine pairings, to give us a cookbook that respects Jewish customs, gives traditional food creative culinary makeovers, and introduces flavorful new dishes that will quickly become family favorites. The Covenant Kitchen includes informative sidebars on how to select the right wine for any occasion, on the requirements for kosher food preparation, and on how to prepare the basics. With sample menus for Jewish holidays and the fascinating story of wine in ancient Israel and throughout Jewish history, The Covenant Kitchen puts a fresh spin on one of the world’s oldest culinary traditions.
With beautiful full-color illustrations throughout.

Kosher goes upscale in the latest cookbook from Jeff and Jodie Morgan (coauthors, The Working Parents Cookbook). The Morgans are something of a power couple of food--among other past endeavors, Jeff served as West Coast editor for Wine Spectator and Jodie as executive director of the American Institute of Food and Wine--and together they own Covenant Winery. This considerable expertise in food and wine produces a cookbook in which each turn of the page reveals a new delight. Recipes such as halibut with spiced olive tapenade and kasha, cauliflower soup with crispy garlic and curry oil, and pistachio cardamom butter cookies cover every course, with ample options for meat or dairy kitchens. Additionally, the Morgans provide a helpful guide to wine and suggest wine pairings for their dishes throughout the volume. A chapter on basics will be useful to less-experienced cooks, and everyone will benefit from the section of multicourse holiday menus. VERDICT This hip, fresh cookbook is just the thing for foodies desiring to keep kosher while elevating their repertoire of dishes for the benefit of themselves or their dinner guests--and there's plenty to interest cooks who lack a kosher kitchen as well.--Courtney Greene McDonald, Indiana Univ. Libs., Bloomington
