Peanut Butter Chocolate Bars Recipe
Posted on 8th of March, 2012 by Lévana
I created these delicious (and gluten-free to boot) treats to celebrate the discovery that my granddaughter Musia was no longer allergic to peanut butter, and since she has a sort of chocolate obsession, this was the ultimate gift. To get an even shorter cut into her heart, I threw in...

Posted on 7th of March, 2012 by Lévana

Lamb Meatballs in Apple Chutney Sauce Recipe
Posted on 5th of March, 2012 by Lévana
This new star was born just this past Shabbos, when I was tinkering with a batch of Apple Tomato Chutney that tasted too delicious to be used only as a condiment; I went all out and incorporated in this Indian lamb meatball dish, and the finished dish was heavenly, and...

Pesto Sauce Recipe. All Variations
Posted on 29th of February, 2012 by Lévana
The perennial favorite is based on basil, olive oil, and toasted walnuts; but we have seen it recast with a different herb or nut, and tasting just as delicious and interesting. Use not only as a pasta sauce but as topping for cooked chicken or fish, or a dip. I...

Teryaki Sauce Recipe
Posted on 29th of February, 2012 by Lévana
I live in the vicinity of several Chinese restaurants (who doesn’t?). Every morning I watch the mountain of trash at their back door, and it always includes enormous jerry cans of teriyaki sauce: No wonder all those dishes look like a container of motor oil has accidentally landed there. This...
