Chocolate Peanut Butter Ice Cream Cake Recipe
Posted on 25th of May, 2013 by Lévana
I made this cake for my niece Chana’s Sheva Brachot this week. I had plotted the layers the flavors the textures over and over, taking this out, adding that, sprinkling with the other, all in my mind’s eye, as meticulously and obsessively as if I was preparing to go on...

Shavouot: Some of my Favorites Dairy Creations. All Recipes Included
Posted on 7th of May, 2013 by Lévana
My – usually virtuous enough – students and readers have asked me specifically to go all out for my Shavouot Dishes, starring mostly dairy treats, all those foods we love to hate. “With Cheese!!!”, one of them even emailed me in bold print: You asked for the splurge! The good news...

Lemon Cake Recipe
Posted on 6th of May, 2013 by Lévana
Non-Lemon-Lovers need not apply! This is perfect for brunch but also for dessert, with fruit or sorbet. The baked cake gets soaked all over with a luscious lemon syrup. You are in for a treat! This is a decidedly dairy cake. Sorry, guys! Don’t substitute margarine or oil for the...

Eggplant Roulades Recipes. All Variations. GF Adaptations
Posted on 6th of May, 2013 by Lévana
Fun and delicious, and a great choice for a vegetarian entree. As always, I ignore the eggplant’s insatiable appetite for oil, skip the frying and the slices, just enough to make them pliable and ready to roll! No problem making these rolls with gluten-free bread crumbs. These roulades will reheat...

Blueberry Cake with Almond Streusel Recipe
Posted on 5th of May, 2013 by Lévana
Blueberries: You just say the word, and I wax lyrical. Blueberries can do no wrong! All of my friends who used to summer with us in the mountains think of me fondly each time they make this cake. I can’t remember how many thousands I have made; I still have pictures of...

Moroccan Spicy Romaine Lettuce Chickpea Salad Recipe
Posted on 19th of April, 2013 by Lévana
One of my favorites, overlaid with Moroccan flavors. All of you out there always asking how we turn a same old, same old salad into an exciting Sephardi main course salad: You can glorify it even further by throwing in some leftover diced fish or chicken, or make it dairy,...

Moroccan Potato, Tomato and Olive Tajine Recipe. All Variations
Posted on 19th of April, 2013 by Lévana
Sephardi food at its best and most fragrant. Straight from the Moroccan kitchen of my childhood. Ridiculously simple ingredients and hardly any labor. I have included several variations to make it a full one-pot dish, but you can choose to go without and make this a wonderful all-vegetable main course...

Mock Crab Corn Apple Salad Recipe
Posted on 16th of April, 2013 by Lévana
I whipped up this salad this past Shabbos, that’s right, on Shabbos, for my husband and I, as I was hatching a meal spartan enough (and of course delicious enough!) to atone for some of the magnificent meals we indulged in the whole Pessach week (don’t get me wrong: No...

Matbukha Recipe and Shakshuka Variation. Gluten-Free
Posted on 16th of April, 2013 by Lévana
Matbukha (Salade Cuite) is one of our Moroccan favorite dishes, a sort of comfort food for expats and honorary Sephardis alike: See how they mop that sauce with their bread! My version has roasted garlic in it, for a an easily added wonderful layer of flavor. Shakshuka is nothing more...
