At Kosher Chefs’ Cook-Off, Forget Foie Gras
New York Times
Jasmine Einalhori, the winner, is set to graduate next week with a degree in hotel management from New York University. She won a scholarship for a 152-hour training course, which the culinary school’s owner said costs $5,000.
Culinary school had its frustrations for Seth Warshaw, the executive chef and owner of Etc. Steakhouse, a kosher restaurant in Teaneck, N.J. He had enrolled in a prestigious cooking school in Manhattan, but it quickly became clear that his religious restrictions rendered many hallmarks of fine French cooking — like rich creams and luscious crustaceans — off-limits.
