Norene Gilletz
Norene Gilletz (born in Winnipeg, May 29, 1940) is "the leading author of kosher cookbooks in Canada,"[1] as well as a food consultant and cooking instructor.[2] She has also run a catering shop[3] and is a contributor to the Canadian Jewish News.[4] She raised her family in Montreal, and now lives in Toronto.[5]
Her first cookbook was Second Helpings, Please! (Montreal: B'nai B'rith Women, 1968). Several years after the introduction into the North American market of the food processor by Cuisinart, Gilletz published The Pleasures of Your Processor (1980; later renamed The Food Processor Bible),[6] a work cited as "sure to please."[7] Among her other cookbooks are MealLeaniYumm! (later titled Healthy Helpings);[8] Norene’s Healthy Kitchen;[9] and The New Food Processor Bible, described as "full of useful information, helpful hints and chatty asides, together with excellent recipes."[10]
Her other cookbooks include MicroWays, The Low Iodine Diet Cookbook, and The PCOS Diet Cookbook.
