BROOKLYN, N.Y., Jan. 10 /PRNewswire/ -- Acclaimed kosher diva Susie
Fishbein, author of the Kosher by Design cookbook series, is releasing her
fifth project - Passover by Design (ArtScroll Shaar Press, February 2008;
$29.99/Hardcover, 276pp; ISBN: 1578190738). With over a quarter of a million
books sold, Kosher by Design has become the most popular kosher cookbook
series in print today. Passover by Design follows suit with Fishbein's
signature style of combining gorgeous food and decor photos together with 172
chic recipes that shimmer with simple elegance.
    Asked how Passover by Design differs from her previous cookbooks, Fishbein
said, "This cookbook is solely focused on Passover. It includes so many
helpful suggestions for preparing dishes that are as eye-pleasing as they are
delicious. Also, you'll notice a blend of both familiar and brand new recipes.
I painstakingly went through the previous Kosher by Design cookbooks and
completely reformulated over 130 recipes to be thoroughly kosher for Passover.
I've added over 30 fresh recipes as well that are superb and even unique for
Passover." Among the new additions, Fishbein collaborated with Moshe David, a
rising star on the kosher catering circuit, to create over twenty more
intricate and unusual Passover dishes, including Teriyaki Chicken Sates and
Thai Sole Rolls.
    "Kosher for Passover" is a critical designation on food packaging as
traditional Jews avoid products containing any leavened ingredients during the
Passover holiday. Fishbein's new cookbook provides solutions to that
challenge. She notes, "It's not a matter of simply substituting one cup of
potato starch for one cup of flour. I spent scores of hours getting the
measurements just right for each recipe. With Passover by Design, the right
ingredients and adjusted quantities are all done for you. That's a huge time
saver. Also, everything you need is presented in one volume. You won't shuffle
through several cookbooks, marking pages with sticky notes, to plan your
meals."
    Anyone gluten-intolerant will find many delicious reasons to employ
Passover by Design throughout the year, as 130 of the recipes are devoid of
grain-based allergens commonly associated with celiac disease.
    Beside the stunning full-color photos shot by world-class food
photographer John Uher, Passover by Design showcases an engaging mix of
traditional and contemporary decorating concepts for the Passover table.
    Publisher ArtScroll Shaar Press releases Passover by Design to the general
book market on February 28th.
