Salmon Roulade with Tehina Sauce Recipe
Posted on 15th of September, 2010 by Lévana
Not nearly as complicated as the finished dish would suggest. My mother likes to joke that the gauze-wrapped fish looks like it just came out of the operating room, but there will be no hint of this alarming association at the table, as you will have removed all the patient’s...

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...

Tilapia Niçoise en Papillotte Recipe
Posted on 21st of July, 2010 by Lévana
A packaged meal. Only, not that kind of a package! Enclosing the fish and its toppings in foil or wax paper seals in all its flavors. Papillotte is a cute French word that means curl, flutter, blink. In the food world it refers to the frill that tented paper forms...

Mock Crab Pasta Salad Recipe
Posted on 8th of July, 2010 by Lévana
Several of my favorite summer flavors are in! The only cooking that goes on in this dish is boiling water to soak the pasta. Although it is delicious with rice noodles, if you are a diehard wheat pasta lover, simply substitute your favorite pasta for the rice noodles, and proceed...

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...

The Seduction of Dashi
Posted on 29th of April, 2010 by Lévana
This morning I received something which for years I used to perceive as a berating lecture, but which I have long since identified as an unmitigated compliment, indeed a tribute: It has to do with being dogged, and never taking no for an answer. From one of the owners of...

Easy Summer Shabbos Entertaining
Posted on 14th of April, 2010 by Lévana
The preoccupation with dreaming up wonderful and easy summer dishes started very early this year for me. Recently I found myself listening, rather incredulously, to the weather report on the news, one Thursday morning, and the forecast was: Temperature in the high eighties. We were in the last Shabbos of...
