Spicy Steel-Cut Oat Soup (Lahshou) Recipe
Posted on 16th of July, 2010 by Lévana
This is a most unusual combination of flavors, and it works beautifully. We serve it after the fast of Tish’a B’Av. When we were children, we were often given this soup to fortify our diet. We made it with wheat or barley, but steel-cut oats are just as delicious, accommodate...

Mock Crab Pasta Salad Recipe
Posted on 8th of July, 2010 by Lévana
Several of my favorite summer flavors are in! The only cooking that goes on in this dish is boiling water to soak the pasta. Although it is delicious with rice noodles, if you are a diehard wheat pasta lover, simply substitute your favorite pasta for the rice noodles, and proceed...

Panzanella Recipe
Posted on 7th of July, 2010 by Lévana
The cute name comes from the Italian word “pan”, which means bread. The ideal leftover dish, as it is made from 2-to-3-day-old bread. Gluten-free bread will work perfectly here. The bread cubes soak up all the flavors, so it will get better as it sits a few hours. The dressing...

Gazpacho Recipe
Posted on 7th of July, 2010 by Lévana
I have a couple wonderful secret ingredients that do wonders with this perennial favorite: Watercress, and capers. The upgrade will certainly not be lost on you: Liquid salad never tasted so good. Do not be tempted to substitute stem tomatoes, or grape or cherry tomatoes, no matter how luscious they...

Chilled Minted Escarole Pea Soup Recipe
Posted on 30th of June, 2010 by Lévana
Escarole is a member of the lettuce family, rather neglected in America: It has a delightfully bitter edge that makes it a big salad star, and lends itself perfectly to quick cooking, paired as it is here with milder ingredients for this wonderful cold soup. Ingredients: 1/3 cup olive oil...

Recipe for Lemonade and all Variations
Posted on 24th of June, 2010 by Lévana
I never drink soda, and I never serve soda, and nobody ever complains. Au contraire! They all clamor for one of my drinks, in pitchers, which I fill and refill in the wink of an eye. For large parties, I serve my drinks in a fun diner-style three-gallon cold drink...

You can bake the crust up to two days in advance and make the lemon curd up to a week in advance, then fill the baked crust with the curd just before serving. The pie crust comes out wonderful made with gluten-free flour as well (I used millet flour!) Tart...

Sauté Kale, Mustard Greens, Seaweed and Shitaki Recipe
Posted on 10th of June, 2010 by Lévana
I bet you don’t always know what to make of – let alone with - those masses of leaves and roots piled demurely at every ethnic food market display you pass hurriedly on your way to and from work: kale, mustard greens, turnip greens, collard greens and whatnot. The good...

Posted on 27th of May, 2010 by Lévana
Ready in a jiffy, and so fabulous. Don’t hesitate to use frozen berries: Available year-round, cleaned, sweet and full of flavor, you just can’t go wrong. No need to thaw. By the time they macerate in the liqueur, just a few minutes, they will be ready and at room temperature!...
