Shavouot: Some of my Favorites Dairy Creations. All Recipes Included
Posted on 7th of May, 2013 by Lévana
My – usually virtuous enough – students and readers have asked me specifically to go all out for my Shavouot Dishes, starring mostly dairy treats, all those foods we love to hate. “With Cheese!!!”, one of them even emailed me in bold print: You asked for the splurge! The good news...

Lemon Cake Recipe
Posted on 6th of May, 2013 by Lévana
Non-Lemon-Lovers need not apply! This is perfect for brunch but also for dessert, with fruit or sorbet. The baked cake gets soaked all over with a luscious lemon syrup. You are in for a treat! This is a decidedly dairy cake. Sorry, guys! Don’t substitute margarine or oil for the...

Moroccan Spicy Romaine Lettuce Chickpea Salad Recipe
Posted on 19th of April, 2013 by Lévana
One of my favorites, overlaid with Moroccan flavors. All of you out there always asking how we turn a same old, same old salad into an exciting Sephardi main course salad: You can glorify it even further by throwing in some leftover diced fish or chicken, or make it dairy,...

Moroccan Potato, Tomato and Olive Tajine Recipe. All Variations
Posted on 19th of April, 2013 by Lévana
Sephardi food at its best and most fragrant. Straight from the Moroccan kitchen of my childhood. Ridiculously simple ingredients and hardly any labor. I have included several variations to make it a full one-pot dish, but you can choose to go without and make this a wonderful all-vegetable main course...

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...

Lemon Coconut Mousse. Gluten-Free
Posted on 3rd of March, 2013 by Lévana
Another treat born of good flavor matchmaking! Anyone not a lemon lover, or coconut lover, need not apply! Naturally gluten-free. In my catering days I have always used unflavored kosher gelatin in many exciting desserts but had never offered any of them in my cookbooks and my demos, as it...

Almond Streusel Coffee Cake Recipe
Posted on 13th of June, 2012 by Lévana
Yum! Lemon and almonds: Outrageous match! Wonderful brunch choice, as it has the look and texture of a yeasted pastry, thanks to the yogurt. Don’t hesitate to go dairy-free, as it has enough great flavors going for it. I make mine with spelt flour, just as I make all...

Moroccan Chraimi Fish Recipe
Posted on 1st of February, 2012 by Lévana
Excerpted from my latest cookbook, The Whole Foods Kosher Kitchen. Israelis affectionately called this dish chraimi, insisting that’s what Moroccans call it. (Hello! Never heard of the word in Morocco! Something probably got lost in translation . . .) This is precisely the kind of dish where preserved lemon makes...

Preserved Lemons Recipe
Posted on 1st of February, 2012 by Lévana
There is no Moroccan cooking without preserved lemons, and the store-bought variety doesn’t even begin to compare with homemade. They take minutes to prepare and two weeks to “incubate,” totally unassisted, and the result is a few months’ supply of the single element that will convert many of your dishes...

Lemon Curd and Lemon Bars Recipe
Posted on 10th of September, 2011 by Lévana
Lemon non-lovers need not apply! but I doubt we’ll find too many of these! The lemon curd is pure lemon seduction: I love to make these, not only because they are outrageous, but also because they are so low maintenance: Make your curd anytime and keep it refrigerated. Then make...
