RECIPES
Are you hungry? Welcome to my kitchen. I'm Norene Gilletz and people often refer to me as "The Jewish Julia Child"! My cookbooks have been helping feed happy, hungry families for over 30 years. They sit dog-eared and food-stained on cookbook shelves around the world. More than 360,000 copies have been sold to Kosher (or not) cooks!

Tasting is believing! Try a sample recipe from one of my cookbooks. I'll be adding more recipes, food articles and cookbook reviews on a regular basis, so be sure to visit often and see what's on the menu!

I hope that Gourmania.com will become your Kosher (or not) culinary connection to good food around the world!

The recipes listed below are just a small sampling of the quick and easy recipes you'll find in all of my cookbooks. For more great recipes, why not buy a book - for yourself or someone special in your life. Enjoy!
