Passover Cookbook

Food helps to make Passover special.  Here are the recipes (with a number of additions) that were featured in the Passover foods Master class offered by our rabbi.
​

Selling Hametz

If possible, all hametz – food not acceptable during Pesah (Passover), or materials containing such unacceptable food – should be destroyed or given away before the holiday begins.  Should this be impossible, the hametz may be stored in such a way that we are sure not to use it during the holiday and its actual ownership is transferred to a non-Jew until the holiday ends.

​Please complete this form and return it to the JCJ by April 14.
