Sharon Lurie, award-winning, best-selling South African cookbook author of “The Kosher Butcher’s Wife” series of recipe books published by Random House Struik, has won a coveted award for her latest book “Celebrating with the Kosher Butcher’s Wife”.

Cutting edge kosher

The 25th anniversary exhibition takes place on October 29 and 30 and promises to keep kosher on the cutting edge.

Culinary competitions, cooking demonstrations and new product launches, are just some of the exciting happenings this year.
 
All food at the end of the Expo will be donated to over 600 community food programmes that feed New York’s hungry – from soup kitchens and homeless shelters to Aids care providers, senior centres and children’s daycare centres.
