Have the meal of your life while celebrating the 1987 classic Dirty Dancing. This deluxe cookbook is packed with official recipes, made in collaboration with Lionsgate, that will bring an idyllic Kellerman’s summer to your table.

Fall in love again with Baby Houseman, Johnny Castle, and friends, over meals that evoke the iconic dance moves, romantic gestures, resort-sanctioned activities, and steamy staff-only parties that made the summer of 1963 unforgettable.

A modern twist on traditional kosher dishes from the 1960s, recipes feature step-by-step instructions alongside stunning food and film photography. This book is designed to make meal prep feel like dancing and make dining-in with loved ones into a party. You just need to make sure somebody carries the watermelon!

OFFICIAL DIRTY DANCING COOKBOOK: The officially licensed cookbook, created in conjunction with Lionsgate.

65+ RECIPES: With more than 65 kosher recipes inspired by iconic dances, beloved characters, and the unforgettable Kellerman’s Mountain House setting, there’s something to delight any fan.

STUNNING PHOTOGRAPHY: Gorgeous, full-colour photography throughout will help ensure your finished dishes look fit for film, too.

THE ULTIMATE DATE NIGHT: With a range of delicious appetisers, main courses, desserts, and drinks, you can have a night out with dinner and dancing, while staying in!

FOR ALL SKILL LEVELS: Easy-to-follow recipes and everyday ingredients make this cookbook ideal for every chef, meal, and occasion.
