Hi Jamie
I gave your cookbook Quick and Kosher for the Bride who knew nothing when my son and her got married..I should have bought a copy for myself…Reading through you blog and other websites..I see that you recipes are great…the pictures and simple ingredients make my mouth water..I can’t wait to try your Mexican Pizza..the only change I am making is I will use pita bread instead of the pizza crust to cut down on the carbs. Keep up the good work.

Hi Jamie!
Congratulations on your decision to make aliyah!!! I love getting your magazine and reading your newsletters here in Tel Aviv. I made aliyah last July. I wonder how your new home will affect your recipes. All for the better, I am sure.
Martha
hi Martha!!! thank you for all your support in Tel Aviv — I will try very hard to use ingredients that are available to people in both Israel AND the US. At least that’s my goal
We’ll be joining you soon!
We will welcome you Home Jamie! Made Aliyah last August. Look forward to your appearances around Israel.Love your cookbooks. Wish the second one was set up the way the first one was. A little frustrating looking for a chicken recipe and having to keep flipping to the index to find them. Still love the recipes. Hatzlacha on your Aliyah. Hope it goes smoothly.
Marilyn
thank you Marilyn!!! as for the set up — thanks for the feedback the new book coming out in 2013 will follow the same traditional format as book 1
I will look forward to your next book. I will also look forward to advice on substitutions here in Israel as many of the recipes call for ingredients not found in Israel. Cuts of meat also different and I haven’t quite made heads or tails out of that either. In the meantime, enjoy the Aliyah process. Nothing is quite like walking off that plane onto the tarmac at Ben Gurion. What an amazing feeling!! To see your friends and family waiting and running into their waiting arms is something you will never forget. Enjoy every minute of it!!
Marilyn
I watched jamie geller last night BUT..I cannot find the recipe for potato kugels. HELP
here ya go http://www.joyofkosher.com/recipe/potato-kugel-cups/
Hey Jamie,
Every Friday afternoon in my house is quite hectic. Chores and responsibilities are divided among my siblings and I, and we do what we can to keep the stress to a minimum. A few weeks ago I took responsibility for cooking the chicken breasts- my mother really didn’t feel like cooking a fancy meal and I figured since I had gotten lucky before on YouTube (Fried Shnitzel with cornflake coating, I’m sure your familiar with it) I might as well try again. After searching with no luck I Finally came across your chicken pastrami roll recipe and it was a huge hit (not to mention fairly easy). Several days later I see an article in the Jerusalem Post about you moving to Israel! 1st of all I had no idea who you were (I’m a 22 year old guy who just finished the army, not exactly your typical follower I’m assuming) but I recognized you from YouTube and I remember thinking this was an odd coincidence being that I had only days before used your recipe. My family moved to Israel 9 years ago from the States as well. I just wanted to say 1st of all, Welcome and Congratulations! Its a great country and your going to like it here. 2nd of all thank you very much, I really enjoy cooking and thanks to you, even a 22 year old guy like myself with little experience (I’m sure most of your fans do) can cook an entire Shabbat meal for the whole family.
Best of Luck with the move,
Ben
Ben, what an absolutely amazing comment! Thank you thank you thank you SO very much for taking the time to post. I am sorry I didn’t respond sooner. Thank you from the bottom of my heart for your welcome and well wishes! Where did you guys move from? My husband taught me how to cook — all my kids including my almost 5yr old son help me in the kitchen — it’s so amazing that you help so much on Erev Shabbos and with cooking. I am just teary thinking how lucky your mother is to have you! Regards to you and your entire family and yasher koach on completing your army service. Warmest Regards!

Hello Jamie,
I have seen your videos and I think your recipies are great, you are so full of energies and you make cooking really fun!
I just learnt of your Aliyah, mazal tov!! Israel is the best place to be, for your kids specially.
Good luck in every thing and keep up your amazing work.
Hi Lilly! thanks so so so much for your support!!! and AMEN AMEN AMEN wishing you all the best!
Hi Jamie, I live with my family in your former town of New Hempstead, NY. Only found your website recently and got the book Quick and Kosher. I so enjoy watching the video clips of your cooking segments and the aliya videos definitely made me teary eyed. I actually was born in Israel and moved here many years ago when I was six years old. I have a lot of family in Israel. Aliya is not in the picture right now for several reasons but I want to wish you good luck with everything in your life. Shavua Tov!
As I am a man I may not be the norm for reading a cooking book for a bride. However I am the father and husband in a family who is converting to Judaism and while I have always had the culinary expertise in our household and my bride “knew nothing” beyond meals that ended in helper. Since we discovered your website and cookbooks it has not only allowed my lady love to begin cooking and not only that she is actually really GOOD AT IT TOO , it has allowed us to come closer as a family and we want to thank you for that and look forward to making more of your recipes. Thank you so much!
Dennis, first and foremost I would like to warmly welcome you and your family. I thank you so very much for this comment. It’s quite incredible how many different people can be touched by what we are doing and how you can touch us by sharing snippets of your life. From the entire team- we wish you and your family tremendous strength and success. And a message to your lady love: you are a total success story. Your story in the kitchen is mine and I am so happy you are “GOOD AT IT TOO!!!”
hi! i see you recently moved to israel and was wondering how you deal with the different ingredients and convert them to come out the same way…i live in israel too and for example, the cheeses are all so different. i cant make a good fettucine alfredo. any suggestions?
Hi Jamie,
I am Joy Devor’s daughter, how ya doinggg????
hi jamy, i saw your nefesh benefesh video and got very inspired by it. i’d like to know if your stll as inspred aand how are the kids adjusting? that’s my main concern with finding a job.
Hi Jamie,
So happy to hear you made aliyah. The first time I saw your cookbook was at my daughter’s home in New Rochelle, N.Y. I live in Israel and still find some recipes difficult due to the variations in ingredients. My husband is diabetic and it is not always easy to prepare meals that are healthy and attractive. On top of everything, we are vegetarians. Help. Any new recipes for Pesach would be most helpful.
Sincerely,
Jane
I just wanted to say thank you! I’ve gotten some great recipes (now favourites!) from Quick and Kosher. I had to tell you that one of my REAL favourites is your one bowl chocolate cake. I just made it for Purim for mishloach manos in mini cupcakes (did it last year too) and it gets rave reviews again and again!
Thank you!
hey jamie,
love you avacado california salad. Im a huge sweet toother, got any recipies for chocolate brownies. not anything typical, i need it to be like jamie geller style. thanks!
Jamie,
Saw you on WCBS 2 news and am going to make your matza ball recipe for pesach. Your recipe makes 28 matza balls. Do you cook all of them in one pot at one time? I have found that even when using a large pot, if the MBs are too crowded it will prevent them from expanding.
Have a great pesach.
I wanted to know how to contact you in regard to your Aliyah with a family through NBN. Me and my family also love your videos we’ve seen them a gizillion times!!
Thank you!
you can contact me by e-mail

Hi Jamie,
In reading the article on you in today’s Jerusalem Post I was struck how closely your thoughts on representing the real Israel paralleled those of my wife, who has been writing a blog with pictures of our adventures in aliyah for the past nearly three years. She has a broad readership in the U.S. of people (Jewish and non) who are constantly enthralled at the stories of daily life in Jerusalem for an extended family originally from New York. Her blog can be found at http://loisliebowitz.blogspot.co.il/, and our backstory was profiled in the Jerusalem Post at http://www.jpost.com/Cafe-Oleh/Cafe-Talk/Multicultured-in-Israel. All the best for your continued successful integration,
Irving Wiesen
As being from the tribe of Ephraim and a Mormon Christian I have been engrossed in all things Israel for as long as I can remember. If I could afford it I would love to live in Israel even if only six months a year.
I could hardly sleep for the whole six day war and was constantly glued to the news.
It is prophesy. We Mormons believe we are part of the equation.
Thank you for everything you have done for the world.
