PUT SOME LEAVEN IN YOUR METHOD: Get out your baking soda and baking powder, your quinoa and your fava beans -- Passover is adopting a big tent policy.
Personally, I find this odd. I am far -- FAR -- from the most religiously observant girl on the block, but even I like spending eight days eating the traditional Passover foods and being careful to avoid the ones you're supposed to avoid. I think of Passover the same way many think of Lent -- a time to deprive oneself to honor the religion and the tradition. The sort of approach being adopted by the rabbis cited in the article strikes me as similar to those who marketed low-carb pastas during the Atkins frenzy -- why bother?
