Too many diners complain that they love schnitzel but are disappointed that they are so easily dried out. My daughter-in-law Ruthie makes the best schnitzels but always keeps insisting she does nothing in particular, so I decided to spy on her once when she made the dish, from beginning to end. The result is some [...]

Comfort food at its best and easiest. And healthiest: We grew up on this kind of dessert my mother, an ingenious cook if I ever met one, used to whip up at the drop of a hat, for children big and small. Do look for orange flower water, which is sort of its trademark flavoring: [...]

Growing up in Morocco, each family had their own “beggar” they looked after. Ours, a courteous middle-aged man dressed poorly but with elaborate dignity, would sit silently on our steps every Thursday night, waiting for my mother to resurface from her kitchen and come out to him.

Every time I go to Basil, I -not so- discreetly eye what everyone seated next to me – and even a little further: Foodies, what do you expect?- is having.

When life gives you jalapenos, make charif! This past Saturday night, Erez Purim, my daughter Bella complained that she had placed her Shabbos produce order online, and that something got lost in cyber-translation, turning 4 jalapenos and 4 tomatoes into 4 pounds jalapenos and almost 6 pounds plum tomatoes.

With this beautiful lineup of flavors, and accessorized as it is here with minted cucumber raita and apricot chutney (I am giving here a large chutney recipe, since it is as easy to whip up as a small batch: Plenty for you and a few Mishloach Manot gifts!) I guarantee you will never miss the [...]
