You can roast virtually any vegetable, just as long as you combine your veggies by comparable roasting time. For example, roast mushrooms, asparagus, eggplant, zucchini, shallots, peppers, endives, fennel etc… together (they will be ready in just a few minutes), and roast the selection below together (they will take a little longer) Roots are [...]

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 you are told to [...]

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 snugly in one layer. It [...]

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 of course you can cut [...]

Another brisket of mine with wacky ingredients that comes out to die for! Just ask all the guests that were at my Seder Demo last night: They were falling like flies! So sorry about indulging in some un-ladylike swagger! This star was recently born when I was tinkering with coffee, molasses and bourbon, a frequent [...]

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 same sandbox, and have fun: [...]

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 pickles. Another thing we [...]

When life gives you jalapenos, make charif! This past Saturday night, Erez 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 since she had just mentioned [...]

Think of Raita not only as a cool and delicious way to put out the fire of curries, but even on its own: mint, cucumber, yogurt: What could be more fun and more yum? Ingredients: 3 cups plain low-fat yogurt (soy or coconut yogurt for non-dairy) Salt and pepper to taste 1 tablespoon cumin Red [...]
