Maple-Roasted Turkey with Apples, Fennel and Parsnips Recipe
Posted on 17th of November, 2011 by Lévana
At my Cooking Demo this past Monday night, Thanksgiving Feast, my guests were simply amazed we finished the preparations of a whole Thanksgiving dinner with more than half an hour to spare, not including the 2 hours baking time we started the turkey on before demo started, during which we...

Kosherfest 2011!
Posted on 14th of November, 2011 by Lévana
Would it make me sound like a dinosaur if I said I remember early Kosherfest shows taking place, ages ago, with flocks of young mothers pushing strollers and turning the show into a giant lunch break in an industrial playground? Then the show moved to Javitz Center sans strollers, then...

Review By Tara Barker!
Posted on 6th of November, 2011 by Lévana
Cookbooks these days have become works of art. We display them on our coffee tables, give them our coveted, valuable kitchen counter space, we read them in bed as if they were gripping novels. Their pages are glossy, the recipes are illustrated by full-page color photographs, and we all try...

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...

Pumpkin Corn Pudding Recipe
Posted on 1st of November, 2011 by Lévana
You will be pleased to see that in my new cookbook I make extensive use of pumpkin all shapes and sizes, for both savory and sweet dishes. I should also tell you I never like stuffing turkey directly, so I make lots my stuffing “outside”, in a separate dish. This...

Mock Zabaglione Recipe
Posted on 25th of October, 2011 by Lévana
I haven’t had the authentic zablaglione, a luscious Italian whipped egg-yolk-sugar-and-port cream, since one day I got sick from -and ashamed of- having splurged on it. But even at small doses, not everyone can afford it: I trust you will like the results of my tinkering: It tastes very much...

Caramel Sauce Recipe
Posted on 18th of October, 2011 by Lévana
Another glowing example of a treat known as dairy that doesn’t in the least suffer from a dairy-free adaptation, au contraire! (Go ahead and multiply the recipe if you would like—it keeps very well.) Delicious over ice cream, pound cake, bread puddings, etc… For a richer texture, I use a...

Upcoming Cooking Demo in NYC: Monday October 24th: Italian Feast
Posted on 18th of October, 2011 by Lévana
Italian flavors at their best! Each dish is a meal in its own right. Except for the dessert, all dishes are gluten-free I have a pretty fantastic egg-free take on the delicious but prohibitively egg yolk-rich classic zabaglione. I’ll be demonstrating: Chicken cacciatore Herb Italian bean soup Panzanella with mock...

Spaghetti and Meatballs Recipe: Gluten-Free Friendly, and Kids-Friendly!
Posted on 17th of October, 2011 by Lévana
We all used to pile into my mother-in-law’s small apartment for her famed dish and always lied to her that somehow ours didn’t come out as good as hers: Anything to have her make a vat of it, which would disappear in minutes. All the children in our family...
