Yes.

And I'm familiar with those recipes, but they aren't Ashkenazic (northern European).  They are Sephardic or Mizrachi.  All excellent, well-documented recipes, but from the wrong part of the world.  I would hope that there exists something equally well-documented from Germany or France.  And like I said, even if it isn't explicitly Jewish, my wife and I can creatively adapt most recipes to make them kosher.
