Quinoa with Fried Onions and Chestnuts Recipe
Posted on 7th of April, 2011 by Lévana
I love quinoa, on Passover and year-round. A staple in South America, it’s a nutritional powerhouse, and delicious too, and so versatile! Quinoa comes in white, red and black, as I did here, so mix and match and get fun results each time. Please do not skip the step where...

Salmon Baked in Basil Tomato Sauce Recipe
Posted on 6th of April, 2011 by Lévana
One of the best salmon dishes you will ever taste. Two simple secrets: the first is hardly a secret by now, but I can’t emphasize it enough: do not cook a second longer than instructed; the second is, bake it in a pan only large enough to fit the fish...

Herb-Roasted Trout in Grape Leaves Recipe
Posted on 6th of April, 2011 by Lévana
Grape leaves are delightful, not only for stuffing but for wrapping fish or chicken, leaving you with a moist and fragrant dish. I love to serve this fish as a main course on Passover lunches, and give my family and guests a break from the rich meat dinner fare, but...

Brisket in Coffee Brandy Sauce Recipe
Posted on 6th of April, 2011 by Lévana
Another brisket of mine with wacky ingredients that comes out to die for! Just ask all the guests that were at my Seder Demo last night: They were falling like flies! So sorry about indulging in some un-ladylike swagger! This star was recently born when I was tinkering with coffee,...

Chocolate-Dipped Coconut Meringues Recipe
Posted on 6th of April, 2011 by Lévana
Kids, please: Don’t let’s get into a turf war with the distinguished and wonderful French Macarons, or with the somewhat less distinguished and ubiquitous canned Passover Macaroons that linger for months after Passover, or anything in between: Here come Meringues! So move over sweeties, and let’s all play in the...

Artichokes and Carrots in Lemon Sauce Recipe
Posted on 4th of April, 2011 by Lévana
Artichokes are a Sephardi favorite. In Morocco they are a staple, and I remember a variety I haven’t seen anywhere else: tiny, with pointed leaves as sharp as thorns, which we used to eat by the dozen at the end of a meal as dessert, much as the Japanese eat...

This Year’s Seders in Jerusalem? Yum!
Posted on 4th of April, 2011 by Lévana
Which of us, no matter how virtuous and devoted, wouldn’t wish for a little help when it comes to cooking up a storm for Pessach? If you are among those who opt against the more expensive and more institutional hotel Pessach programs (and who could blame you?), with lots of...
