A Table of Contents: A Cold Vegetarian-Fish Shabbos Lunch
Posted on 3rd of May, 2010 by Lévana
As often when we host lots of singles, this week I went Shabbos-shopping with a totally open mind. Since I was right in the area of Whole Foods on 97th St and Columbus Ave, I thought to myself, surprise me, and decided my lunch menu will be predicated on my...

Minted Tabouleh Recipe
Posted on 3rd of May, 2010 by Lévana

I have made here a gluten-free adaptation, but for the rest of us who have no celiac problems, I am giving you instructions for regular tabouleh as well: No cooking necessary for the grain!

Endive, Pear, Avocado and Walnut Salad Recipe
Posted on 3rd of May, 2010 by Lévana
Endives are wonderful in this salad. The dish is very easily adapted for Passover, and is equally at home as a salad or a side dish with grilled fish or chicken. We all notice walnut oil, which is an expensive treat year-round, is plentiful and reasonably priced during Passover: Go...

Eggplant Salad Japanese Style Recipe
Posted on 3rd of May, 2010 by Lévana
This dish is equally at home as a salad and as a side dish. I never submit to the tyranny of frying eggplant, which is not only time consuming, but gobbles up lots of oil. I have included a mushroom-eggplant combo, using exactly the same recipe, but throwing in small...

Any chance I get to sneak in those veggies that are somewhat neglected in America, and beloved beyond, I am there: So for today, that will be Fennel! It works its unseen magic and yields a silky texture and sweet – but not cloyingly sweet – flavor. A real nutritional...

Makrod: Semolina Date Pastry Recipe. Gluten-Free Friendly
Posted on 22nd of April, 2010 by Lévana
I have always rather neglected this wonderful treat, as the traditional preparation requires frying, my nemesis: I don’t think I have more than a handful of fried dishes in my whole repertoire. But I tweaked the recipe to do my bidding as a baked, not fried, treat, and the result...
