Think kosher food, and you think blintzes, kishke, brisket, tsimmes, matzo balls, corned beef on rye.\n\nYou don\’t immediately think of fajitas, smoked-salmon quiche, turkey burgers with onion rings, rosemary-grilled breast of chicken with braised leeks and forest mushrooms, or flourless chocolate cake with raspberry sauce.

You can write a decent 91´«Ã½ cookbook by collecting the recipes of decent 91´«Ã½ cooks, or you can write a truly fine 91´«Ã½ cookbook by compiling the recipes of fine cooks who happen to be 91´«Ã½. Make sense? It will when you consider two of the newest entries to the 91´«Ã½ cooking market.
