Hi, This looks great. I had my three or four recipes lined up but I may have to make this too. You did a great job. There are tons of laws and like any other set of laws they change as they are reinterpreted by different people. When I was growing up chemical leaveners were forbidden too. Now they aren't. I just found Kosher for Passover Confectiner's Sugar this morning. I've never seen it before in my life. Potato starch (okay for Passover) has been substituted for corn starch. Corn is forbidden for some Jewish people. Vanilla may be a problem for some. Most people use imitation vanilla (ugh) or vanilla sugar as most everyday vanilla uses corn extract to get the vanilla out of the bean and into a liquid. So this might be a good time to use real vanilla beans if you cannot find vanilla extract that is Kosher for Passover. It flew off the shelves at my local store and hasn't been restocked. Now I've gone on too long. Thanks for braving this topic and giving us a great recipe! Aaron Aaron, how about a link to your Passover shortbread blog? It sounds really tasty - PJH
