Posted on 19th of March, 2010 by Lévana

chicken-prune-tajine

A friendly warning: You will never be able to speak disparagingly about the lowly prune again after you have tasted this magnificent dish, so find something – or someone -else to pick on. If you like dried apricots, substitute them for the prunes, or use half prunes half apricots. You...

Lamb shanks are one of the most ideal cuts of the lamb: Lean, tender, low maintenance, and best of all, very well priced! And I love their rustic, unpretentious look making your homemade dish look ….. homemade. The bones in the shanks contribute a succulent gelatinous texture. I am making...

If my upcoming cookbook is endowed with so many wonderful recipes, you have my daughter Bella to thank almost as well as me: While I was writing this book, she would call me regularly and ask me with great urgency if I thought of including this or that dish. (“Mommy,...

Cholent and all Variations Recipe

Posted on 24th of February, 2010 by Lévana

Cholent: I get countless requests for a “totally gasless” cholent recipe, and my answer always is, while I think this would be pure utopia (come on guys, get real!), I have many ideas for a cholent that is “environmentally safe” (as my son calls it with a wink). Take a...

spaghetti-meatballs

We all used to pile into my mother-in-law’s small apartment for her famed dish and always lied to her that somehow ours didn’t come out as good as hers: Anything to have her make a vat of it, which would disappear in minutes. All the children in our family still...

Posted on 20th of January, 2010 by Lévana

cb11-36-Copy

Spend a wonderful evening with a few French classics and some wine to go with dinner! By the way, my bourguignon has been included in Joan Schwartz’s charming book, deceptively innocent, called Meat and Potatoes. My secret ingredient here is crème de cassis, the wonderful black currant liqueur (there are...
