The Kosher Carnivore: The Ultimate Meat and Poultry Book
Author(s): June Hersh
Experienced home cooks have long praised the virtues of kosher meat, prized for its high quality, humane and well supervised raising, butchering, and trimming. The innovative recipes in "The Kosher Carnivore" will not only delight families who keep kosher as a fresh and modern alternative to traditional kosher preparations, but will appeal to a broader group as well - including the lactose-intolerant - with the author's terrific mixture of classic, elegantly ethnic and just-a-little- bit-fashionable entries, such as: In Beef - Classic Pot Roast, Grilled Steak Chimichurri, Slow-day BBQ Brisket; In Veal and Lamb - Veal Meatballs, Grilled Lamb Riblets, Lamb Sliders; In Chicken - Simple Roast Chicken, Pretzel-Crusted Chicken Tenders, Moroccan Chicken; In Turkey and Duck - Country-style Turkey Meatloaf, Oven-roasted Spicy Turkey Sausage, Pan-seared Duck Breasts with Figs and Madeira; and, In Soup and Stock - Creamy Mushroom Soup, Hungarian Bean Soup with Smoked Turkey, Beef & Barley Soup. "The Kosher Carnivore" also features around forty recipes for side dishes, creatively reinventing standards such as Creamed Spinach (without the butter or cream), condiments and sauces.
It also provides instructions on how to grill, roast, stew, pan sear - and even fry perfect crispy chicken without a buttermilk soak - along with tips from expert butchers and chefs across the country.
