Kim Kushner is a teacher and the author of three best-selling cookbooks, ‘I ♥ Kosher’, ‘The New Kosher’ and ‘The Modern Menu’. Raised in Montreal, Canada, Kim learned to cook at an early age from her Moroccan-born mother and spent summers with family in Israel. A graduate of the Institute of Culinary Education in Manhattan, she has developed recipes for Food and Wine and Chile Pepper magazines and has worked as a private chef. In 2005, she launched Kim Kushner Cuisine and now travels the world teaching her wildly popular cooking classes. As a mother of four, a culinary instructor, and an author, Kim's cooking style reflects her busy multi-tasking life. Her recipes are flavor-packed and made with straightforward techniques that bring ease, time-savings, and creativity to the kitchen. She's become well known in New York City and abroad for her healthy and hearty dishes made from locally grown produce --- not necessarily the first thing that comes to mind when thinking of kosher cuisine.
