I grew up in a very modest household, but I remember fabulous food at every meal at my home, especially on Pessach. So much so that, fast forward more years than I care to admit, I actually wait for that time of year to showcase my culinary stars. So, what’s wrong with me? No, I [...]

This sauce is thick and dense, a self-contained dessert, more like a new-age jell-o (whatever you do, don’t call it that!) Dare I share the name we give this delightful sauce in my house?

If there is anyone who doesn’t go gaga over these little gems with the runny gooey centers, I have never met them! Alas, no baking in advance and no reheating, or they won’t be, well, molten chocolate cake: runny and gooey! The great news is, (a) they are nothing to prepare even though they [...]

This is one of my favorite Passover cakes. As much as I would like to make my life easier by minimizing Passover preparations, I have never had the heart to buy pre-made desserts. The ingredients in this cake are assertive and deliciously fragrant. You will want to make it all year round. Huh? cake made [...]
