Passover Round Up
UPDATE: Here's my latest Kosher for Passover recipe roundup.
Passover is this Saturday! I have been cooking up many Pesach dishes of late and am happy to provide a round-up below.
A couple of notes:
I did not include a vegetable dish in the above list. Generally, I like to serve steamed broccoli or broiled asparagus with our Passover meal. I have linked to a squash pie recipe that I use during Passover as our squash "kugel."
As you will notice, matzoh is conspicuously absent from the above list. I purchase a gluten-free oat matzoh for my boys, however, I do not eat grains, so I create an almond flour matzoh for myself to use as a vehicle for the Hillel Sandwich. My husband says the matzoh that I make is so bad, that I have deemed it unworthy of 'blogage'.
Happy Pesach to you and yours!

Please note: I am not able to field substitution questions, it just isn't humanly possible because there are so many variations on every recipe. I do encourage you to experiment on your own and share your results in a comment.
For information regarding recipe ingredients, products, common substitutions or other related items, please visit my FAQ's or my forums.

Such a beautiful spread!
Happy pessach and thank you!!
You're so far ahead of me - I'm just starting to get to the cooking phase - thanks for the roundup - good job. It's a pretty ambitious job to try and make matza with almond flour. I picked some up just to make an apple cake with and thought I was advanced LOL.

Hi Elana,
I just wanted to let you know that I posted a link to your website on another website's message boards. I am part of a community of women who are trying to conceive but are having difficulty. Many of us eat gluten, dairy, and/or sugar free. I thought some of the women might find your passover recipes very helpful. (www.fertileheart.com for those who might be interested)
I personally have food allergies (but not celiac's), and I frequent some of the gluten-free boards. I can't eat much sugar, even agave, but I do make some exceptions on special occasions. I made some of your cookies for Valentine's Day, and they were great. I'm very drawn to the simplicity of your recipes, and the way they turn out tasting very complex in spite of (or perhaps because of) their simplicity. Thanks for posting them!

Helen -Thanks. You are my cooking muse. Remember the days...xo E.
Ya'ra -Thanks for your comments and Hag Samaech! L'heetraiot.
Gizmar -If you tasted my matzo you wouldn't find it bo be too advanced :-) I hope your apple cake is delicious and that you have a lovely Pesach!
LSG - Thanks for the linkage and your feedback. I appreciate them both! And you really got it --I am always striving for simplicity and I too find it has quite a bit of flavor. I wish you the best of luck in your endeavor to conceive --I imagine this is a challenging time, let me know if I can help...

Hi Elana,
I was SO HAPPY to come across your site. Our granddaughter was recently diagnosed with Celiac and needs to be gluten free. I was THRILLED to find your recipe for matzoh balls. Someone told me that you need to add potato starch. If so, how much would you use? I noticed you did not include that in your recipe. How necessary is it?Would appreciate a response as soon as possible since I plan to make it for the holiday in September. Thanks for your time.

Sheila,
Thank you for you comment. Potato starch is not necessary in my matzoh ball recipe.
Elana
Are you able to tolerate flax? Perhaps that might be a tolerable direction to go for your matzoh?
Love your recipes!
Grace,
Yes, I do a lot of my baking with flax and will have several recipes that utilize it in my forthcoming cookbook from Ten Speed Press.
Thanks for the suggestion.
Elana
I found an interesting GF matzo recipe using almond meal/flour, potato starch (that i will probably substitute with sweet potato flour) and a little bit of flax meal.
