I liked this list of substitutes for common ingredients on Passover. You might find it useful too.
Food and Recipes From the Heart of Israel
Honeycake too good to give up on – even burnt, the first one smelled so good, I had to try again. Was I glad I did. The cake is light, toothsome, and spicy-sweet.
I first ate this salad of sweet potatoes and lentils at a local Aroma cafe, and liked it so much I re-created it at home.
Israeli Kitchen is 2 Years Old
Israeli Kitchen’s second birthday makes me think about the culinary journey I started in 2008.
Pargiot: Chicken Thighs in an Almond Crust
Cooking light for Rosh HaShanah, I made these flavorful and juicy chicken thighs baked in an almond crust.

I don’t understand a lot of the substitutes on this list. Many of the things listed are not forbidden on Passover. Why would you need a substitute for semi-sweet chocolate, honey, butter, cream cheese, or my personal favorite: WINE? How much MORE kosher for Passover could you possibly get than wine, for goodness sake?
I can’t speak for the author, but I assume that these substitutes are for people who either need to convert a dairy dish into a pareve one, or who simply may not have, for example, wine on hand. It comes from there, not from the notion that the originals aren’t kosher for Passover.
Your question made me go back to my early married life (back when man was still shechting mammoths), when my husband was getting over hepatitis and we drank only grape juice for a year. It’s so much nicer with wine in my life…
Wow! This is so great! Thank you! You know, in addition to all the other helpful info in this article, I’m thrilled because I’ve been looking for a sweetened condensed milk substitute for the past year and a half!
- thank you, thank you, thank you!
Oh – you’re very, very welcome!
