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...

Tilapia With Fresh Tomatoes and Lemons Recipe. Vegetarian and Other Variations
Posted on 8th of April, 2013 by Lévana
I love tilapia fillets, versatile, widely available and inexpensive. I always use the large ones (7 to 9 ounces), they never let me down or go to pieces on me during the cooking process. I serve it quite often when my husband and I spend shabbos alone, and want to...

Cooking on the Nine Days. The Meatless/Vegetarian Gourmet
Posted on 23rd of July, 2012 by Lévana
We all observe a sort of frenzy that sets in right before (and right after) a holiday that is marked by some food restrictions. Like hoarding in prevision of a period of austerity. Let’s start with the most egregious example: Pessach. I recently attended a cook-off event for a famous...

Mango Curry Dressing Recipe
Posted on 9th of May, 2012 by Lévana
This salad dressing is delightful not only over greens, but also with fish or chicken, grilled or poached. The pungent curry is a wonderful foil for the fruity and tart mango. Use only as much dressing as will lightly coat your greens, and include with your greens some diced fresh...

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...

Posted on 3rd of April, 2012 by Lévana
Poor parsnips too often serve as crowd actor, and then get discarded (as in chicken soup), but here they are “it”. Who knew they could be so fabulous? hot and sweet is a great treatment for them, and the easiest. They are delicious at room temperature as well. Sephardi Tsimmis?...

Onion Soup Recipe
Posted on 10th of January, 2012 by Lévana
I always thought I made a good onion soup, if I may say so myself: My original recipe is in my first cookbook, Levana’s Table. But I recently received from my daughter Bella a magnificent wheel of Manchego, and decided to replace all the cheese I usually put in with...
