CCC Redux: Walnut Blondies Recipe
Posted on 7th of August, 2012 by Lévana
Photo via www.tasteofhome.com A couple weeks ago, I was baking chocolate chip cookies with kids in summer camp, and our baking conditions were rudimentary, to say the least. We needed to bake 48 cookies in a convection oven large enough to bake, say, 2 pans of 12 cookies. So, simple...

Posted on 10th of July, 2012 by Lévana
If you are, as I am, crazy about all stone fruit, this tart is for you: I initially developed this recipe with apricots in mind, but not finding them as ripe and fragrant as I wanted them to be, I picked their cousins, nectarines, which happened to look luscious. Peaches...

Moroccan Butternut Squash Chick Pea soup
Posted on 8th of July, 2012 by Lévana
We Sephardi love squash in every way shape of form, and goodness knows it comes in countless shapes and sizes. To the classical pumpkin, which can often be hit or miss inside (sometimes we do want to eat pumpkin, not just make Halloween funny faces with it!), I much prefer the more...

Cholent Jazzed up: Chestnut Mushroom Soup Recipe
Posted on 6th of May, 2012 by Lévana
This shabbos looked like it was going to be another unseasonably chilly day, soup weather. And I had several non-meat eaters coming for lunch. So I made fish for main course, but decided I would make a soup for first course. The result was out of this world, and is...
