Apple Noodle Kugel Recipe. Gluten-Free Friendly
Posted on 9th of September, 2012 by Lévana
Kugel is a huge favorite in Jewish cooking. Unfortunately, it can often err on the rich and eggy side. I have tinkered with the ingredients, and ended up with a lean, easy eggless (suitable for our vegan friends) and delicious kugel. Delicious enough even to be dessert, and not too...

I Was a Happy Camper this Summer! (and I Learned a New Word)
Posted on 23rd of August, 2012 by Lévana
Me and my scrunchies: This is the new word I learned. I made one for each kid and each counselor, and gave them out on end of camp party night. Don’t I look like Mr T here? Before summer rolled in, I asked my granddaughter Musia what her summer plans...

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...

Satsivi Recipe
Posted on 7th of August, 2012 by Lévana
Richer than I like my dishes to be, but well worth it for an occasional splurge. It is served cold, with the thick sauce served almost as a side dish with the chicken. My special nod to the Russian part of my family, done the streamlined way: who knew a...

Another Feast at Pardes
Posted on 6th of August, 2012 by Lévana
Another sampling dinner at Pardes Restaurant: I succumbed to the idea yet again, tightening my belt all of that day in prevision for what treats were in store for us. The only thing better than reading and drooling about this menu is actually eating it. I went last week with...
