Quick Pumpkin Peanut Butter Soup Recipe
Posted on 3rd of November, 2010 by Lévana
This flavor lineup is unbeatable, and makes such a strong statement you have nothing more to do than to bring all ingredients to a boil, and blend. Be sure to use pumpkin puree, NOT pumpkin pie mix or goodness knows what other processed calamity! You might even consider making it...

Mock Crab Summer Rolls with Thai Sauce Recipe
Posted on 25th of August, 2010 by Lévana
Summer rolls are those delightful paper-thin rice disks that you dip in warm water to soften (no cooking!), fill with virtually anything you like, roll and dip in the sauce of your choice: I love the suggested Thai dipping sauce, but you could use Teryaki sauce, or even a mixture...

Sauté Kale, Mustard Greens, Seaweed and Shitaki Recipe
Posted on 10th of June, 2010 by Lévana
I bet you don’t always know what to make of – let alone with - those masses of leaves and roots piled demurely at every ethnic food market display you pass hurriedly on your way to and from work: kale, mustard greens, turnip greens, collard greens and whatnot. The good...

Vegetable Rice Byriani Recipe
Posted on 19th of May, 2010 by Lévana
I also used to think that rice is rice, until I found dozens of different varieties, at specialty food stores (Fairway, Zabar’s, Kalustyans, etc…) I urge you to make a visit to any one of them, and treat yourself! Or best of all: Go online! Ingredients: 1/4 cup olive oil...

A Table of Contents: A Cold Vegetarian-Fish Shabbos Lunch
Posted on 3rd of May, 2010 by Lévana
As often when we host lots of singles, this week I went Shabbos-shopping with a totally open mind. Since I was right in the area of Whole Foods on 97th St and Columbus Ave, I thought to myself, surprise me, and decided my lunch menu will be predicated on my...

Seared Tuna Recipe
Posted on 3rd of May, 2010 by Lévana
No recipe here! I get vacuum-packed frozen sliced tuna, sushi quality, at less than half the price of fresh, which was prohibitively expensive and practically out of the question. Ever since I have discovered vacuum-packed sliced tuna (fish stores, price clubs), I can make it anytime at the drop of...

Mock Crab and Vegetable Nori Recipe
Posted on 3rd of May, 2010 by Lévana
There are times we just can’t make sushi rolls with rice (for instance on shabbos, or anytime when they need to be made in advance). Rice-based sushi is never quite as good after it is refrigerated: The rice tends to harden and get an objectionable tough texture. This is why...

Eggplant Salad Japanese Style Recipe
Posted on 3rd of May, 2010 by Lévana
This dish is equally at home as a salad and as a side dish. I never submit to the tyranny of frying eggplant, which is not only time consuming, but gobbles up lots of oil. I have included a mushroom-eggplant combo, using exactly the same recipe, but throwing in small...

Mock Crab Salad Recipe
Posted on 28th of December, 2009 by Lévana
I have no quarrel with mock crab or shrimp, except for the fact that the formatting emulates “the real thing”, but the good news is, it’s delicious and all natural, so, tweak the look and go for it! I am including several presentations here for this salad. All your slicing...
