Dried Fruit Couscous Recipe. Meat and Poultry Variations.
Posted on 24th of August, 2011 by Lévana
Couscous is wonderful and fun, the rock star of Moroccan cuisine. Couscous is native to Morocco, and the word refers to both the grain and the traditional dish made with the grain. It is semolina, or durum (the heart of the wheat kernel), ground to the consistency of coarse cornmeal...

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...

In Search of the Perfect Schnitzel Recipe
Posted on 30th of March, 2011 by Lévana
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...

Posted on 20th of March, 2010 by Lévana
I grew up in a very modest household, but I remember fabulous food at every meal at my home, especially on Pessach. So much so that, fast forward more years than I care to admit, I actually wait for that time of year to showcase my culinary stars. So, what’s...

Chicken Tajine with Prunes and Almonds Recipe
Posted on 19th of March, 2010 by Lévana
A friendly warning: You will never be able to speak disparagingly about the lowly prune again after you have tasted this magnificent dish, so find something – or someone -else to pick on. If you like dried apricots, substitute them for the prunes, or use half prunes half apricots. You...

Apple Latkes Recipe
Posted on 16th of December, 2009 by Lévana
I play endlessly with latkas, both sweet and savory, and from around the world where they might not call them latkas, but fritters, beignets, bunuelos etc…. One big happy fritter family! There’s no vegetable or fruit you can’t make latkas out of, and when you go over my primer on...
