Using this method, you can stretch a tongue and impress your guests with an elegant start to your meal. When you prepare and serve this way, we found that one tongue is enough for 12-14 appetizers! It’ll look super impressive–but is not that hard to prepare. (Let’s just say, it’s way easier than rolling blintzes!). …
Chablis-Infused Salmon
Also known as “White Wine Salmon” (but don’t substitute with just any white wine!) This started out as a cherished Pesach recipe in my family. And when I say “my family” I mean, my family. As in, not my husband’s family. That’s because I married into a tradition that doesn’t do fish on Pesach. At…

Basics: Israeli Salad
Plus! How to keep it fresh and crunchy (even when prepping on Thursday and serving on Shabbos). There are few things we never get tired of. Fresh bread, perfect spring weather, good coffee.

UPDATE: Since we first published this post, there has been new “dupes” on the market–workout gear you can get on Amazon that almost mimics the more expensive original. Working out is not easy. “Getting there” is probably the hardest part. Once…
Herb and Garlic Roasted Chicken, With Orange Pomegranate Gremolata
A bright and savory chicken that is not boring in taste or presentation. This chicken dish is Yom Tov worthy. It is elegant, beautiful to the eye, and delicious as well.

You just need the right container. Did you know that the insides of cabinet doors are forgotten real estate? Look around, analyze your cupboards.

Pretzel Hot Dogs
Dinner can be a family activity. These are so delicious, and your whole family will love them. From young to old. This recipe is the perfect activity that ends up as a fun snack or dinner. Rolling the dough over the hot dogs is reminiscent of challah braiding but way easier for small hands to…
Why the Betty Crocker Is So Perfect for Traveling
Now, I finally understand why everyone loves the Betty Crocker. “Bulky, Hard To Clean, And Takes Up Too Much Space.” That’s what I thought of the Betty Crocker Pizza Maker. That’s what I thought until I found myself pulling it out, time and again. What is it about the Betty? Somehow, it’s always making its…
