Shiitake Mushroom Apricot Matzo Stuffing

Floating Islands

From Pastry Chef Philippe Kaemmerle, Center for Kosher Culinary Arts, Brooklyn, NY

Following the food rules of Passover can get tricky. The complexities surrounding this holy holiday restrict grains such as wheat, corn, spelt, rye and barley, and desserts never include white flour.

Eli Mondrow at kosher.com suggests checking out the following Passover-abiding products, from Israeli flavored oil to chocolate- and toffee-covered matzo, that you can entertain with and enjoy throughout the year.

If you prefer something homemade, check out these two recipes from the Center for Kosher Culinary Arts in Brooklyn, NY—one savory and one sweet—that offer a modern twist on traditional fare.

Chef Avram Wiseman at the Center for Kosher Culinary Arts in Brooklyn, N.Y., says adding shiitake mushrooms to an apricot matzo stuffing is an updated side for a roast chicken. The school’s pastry chef Philippe Kaemmerle satisfies a sweet tooth with Floating Islands, his recipe for crème anglaise, featuring almond milk, a great nondairy alternative.
