White Chocolate Raspberry Swirl Cheesecake

Apr 26, 2023 | Blog, Kosher Recipes

A twist on a Jewish favorite.

When I was the Guest Executive Kosher Chef for Orient Lines, I made this as one of our desserts. As soon as the Staff Captain knew I was onboard with one of the kosher groups, he would descend to the kosher galley. His simple welcome greeting was always the same. “Welcome onboard Chef, when you make my favorite dessert remember, send it straight to my cabin.” I always endeavoured to keep the Captain happy!.

So whether at home, or on one of our fabulous Kosher Riverboat Cruises, enjoy.

Another successful experience

Our experience was unique in that we were able to tour a lot of territory and a variety of places with minimal inconvenience. The fact that our boat was always with us and there were no long bus rides or waits made this mode of travel extremely enjoyable.
