The Best of the best at Kosherfest:
Celebrity Cookbook Author Susie Fishbein
Creates Exclusive Recipes Featuring Kolatin

Susie was asked why she decided to use Kolatin in her recipes.

“Kolatin unflavored—it’s just so versatile; there is so much that the product can do,” she explained. “Other products were just not up to par of what I was looking for in my recipes. They didn’t have holding power . . .  You want the Kolatin unflavored gelatin in your product. You want the hold, you want the shimmer. For example, you can’t do a panna cotta without good gelatin, or no-bake cheesecakes.”

She went on to explain, “With Kolatin, you can layer; the presentation values are just stunning. Think about the centerpieces, what you can put out as an easy and healthy dessert. I think people, when they hear ‘no-bake’—it means almost no skill. Prep time on gelatin desserts are 5 to 10 minutes. People love that.”

Susie elaborated on the myriad possibilities with Kolatin unflavored.
“Kolatin opens up a world of fast and easy recipes for the kosher consumer,” she said. “I had never written any recipe using kosher gelatin previously. In my world of cooking, I won’t use a product as an ingredient in my recipes unless it yields a perfect result. If I can’t find a chocolate that is perfect, for example, I won’t use it in my recipe. I am so excited about Kolatin; it’s a superb, high-quality product. It’s versatile and allows you to add a multitude of recipes to your cooking repertoire.”

Health-conscious consumers should consider Kolatin’s additional benefits. “There are many health benefits, both direct and non-direct, to using gelatin in your dishes. Gelatin is a natural ingredient and is low-calorie, sugar-free, fat-free, cholesterol-free, and high in protein. Many experts also believe that gelatin itself has benefits for maintaining healthy bones and joints and attractive hair and nails, and it has long been valued as a digestive aid.”
