Way awesome, this is my go to oil especially for frying. With its incredibly high smoke point of 490', your latkes, blintzes, sufganiyot, chicken, and stir-frys will be amazing. An all purpose oil with many health benefits, you can purchase it online and have it shipped to your door for free! Just use coupon code "KOSHER". Whoo-hoo!
Mediterranean Pasta Salad is quick and easy as the only thing to cook is the pasta. Use gluten-free rice pasta for those who are wheat intolerant. Everything else in the salad just requires a quick chop or slice. This is one of my favorites on a Kiddush buffet as it goes with everything. The flavors are reminiscent of Greek salad so a nice optional ingredient would be feta cheese.
