Kosherfest 2012 Standout New Products
Posted on 25th of November, 2012 by Lévana
Kosherfest in Secaucus was great fun this year. I and quite a few others marveled at how the staff at Kosherfest pulled off the whole show with their hands often tied behind their backs, so soon after Hurricane Sandy, which crippled many warehouses and made transportation a nightmare. Although I...

Upcoming Cooking Demo in NYC: Monday November 7th: Secrets of Gluten-Free Baking
Posted on 2nd of November, 2011 by Lévana
Although the number of gluten-free commercial offerings is expanding daily, I am sorry to say they are quite often loaded with trashy worthless ingredients, and not terribly tasty, which makes gluten-free eating an unhealthy and uninspiring experience, defeating the whole purpose. You would be amazed how resourceful you can get...
