LEVANA COOKS WITH OSEM MATZAH PRODUCTS: FARFEL WITH ONIONS AND MUSHROOMS RECIPE
Posted on 13th of April, 2011 by Lévana
Farfel is nothing more than matzah cut up small and calibrated for quick cooking. I use the Osem whole wheat version, with wonderful results. You will love the robustness of the whole-grain flavor. No need to wait for Passover to make this treat! Oh I know it doesn’t exactly look...

Posted on 13th of April, 2011 by Lévana
This delicious and super-nutritious dish is sure to be equally at home as a side dish and as a breakfast or even dessert! Kind of a new-age Matzah Brei but without the eggs. I created it years ago for my then-small daughter Bella, a cereal eater who at first asked...

The Passover version of this timeless classic is virtually identical to the year-round one: Osem Matzah cake meal is that good! Secret of delicious brownies, beside of course delicious chocolate: Do not be tempted to bake a minute more or they will harden. Ingredients: 8 ounces best-quality dark chocolate, chopped,...

Quinoa with Fried Onions and Chestnuts Recipe
Posted on 7th of April, 2011 by Lévana
I love quinoa, on Passover and year-round. A staple in South America, it’s a nutritional powerhouse, and delicious too, and so versatile! Quinoa comes in white, red and black, as I did here, so mix and match and get fun results each time. Please do not skip the step where...

Salmon Baked in Basil Tomato Sauce Recipe
Posted on 6th of April, 2011 by Lévana
One of the best salmon dishes you will ever taste. Two simple secrets: the first is hardly a secret by now, but I can’t emphasize it enough: do not cook a second longer than instructed; the second is, bake it in a pan only large enough to fit the fish...

Herb-Roasted Trout in Grape Leaves Recipe
Posted on 6th of April, 2011 by Lévana
Grape leaves are delightful, not only for stuffing but for wrapping fish or chicken, leaving you with a moist and fragrant dish. I love to serve this fish as a main course on Passover lunches, and give my family and guests a break from the rich meat dinner fare, but...

Chocolate-Dipped Coconut Meringues Recipe
Posted on 6th of April, 2011 by Lévana
Kids, please: Don’t let’s get into a turf war with the distinguished and wonderful French Macarons, or with the somewhat less distinguished and ubiquitous canned Passover Macaroons that linger for months after Passover, or anything in between: Here come Meringues! So move over sweeties, and let’s all play in the...

Artichokes and Carrots in Lemon Sauce Recipe
Posted on 4th of April, 2011 by Lévana
Artichokes are a Sephardi favorite. In Morocco they are a staple, and I remember a variety I haven’t seen anywhere else: tiny, with pointed leaves as sharp as thorns, which we used to eat by the dozen at the end of a meal as dessert, much as the Japanese eat...

Moroccan Sweet Vermicelli Recipe
Posted on 30th of March, 2011 by Lévana
Comfort food at its best and easiest. And healthiest: We grew up on this kind of dessert my mother, an ingenious cook if I ever met one, used to whip up at the drop of a hat, for children big and small. Do look for orange flower water, which is...

My -and Bella’s- Recipe for Charif
Posted on 25th of March, 2011 by Lévana
When life gives you jalapenos, make charif! This past Saturday night, Erev Purim, my daughter Bella complained that she had placed her Shabbos produce order online, and that something got lost in cyber-translation, turning 4 jalapenos and 4 tomatoes into 4 pounds jalapenos and almost 6 pounds plum tomatoes. But...
