Kosher KopyKat: Famous Cilantro-Lime Dressing
A dressing so good, you can eat it plain with a spoon. I first learned about this famous dressing one weekday afternoon. It was towards the end of vacation, and I had ordered a salad at a popular little health food spot in Surfside, Florida. The dressing was served in little condiment containers on the…
Chevy’s Pistachio Salmon
A sweet sauce, a savory crunch…it’s classic and fresh in one salmon dish. My sisters-in-law really deserve a lot of credit. Since I’ve been sharing so many recipes for years, of course I’m constantly asking them for their latest and greatest. I pick their brains and ask what they’re cooking lately. “Anything new? And can…
Outrageous Kanafe Ice Cream
There’s so much flavor in this (easy to prepare!) ice cream dessert, it’s hard to even begin describing it to you. I have had the concept of a knafeh ice cream simmering in my mind for a while now. But before we begin introducing this amazing dessert, I need to begin by crediting two other…
Tangy Asian Chicken Fingers
It’s your favorite crispy chicken fingers, but with a twist that everyone will love. In our house, any sort of fried chicken is always a hit! We love this recipe. It tastes great and has a punch of flavor that is a nice change from traditional schnitzel. I often double the marinade and save half…

It’s very much your type. Do you want to try it?” Absolutely, I did. I had worked with Leah Nagel…
Churros
We knew we had to bring you this perfect-for-Chanukah item, straight from the fryer and straight from Best of Kosher. This recipe, originally from Everyday Secret Restaurant Recipes, made the cut when we were deciding which recipe from the book to include in Best of Kosher. Why? It’s been a favorite and a go-to ever…
How to Freeze Doughnut Dough & Fry Fresh
We have a few recipe categories that we revisit often, including challah, potato kugel and doughnuts. What they all have in common is that they are three of the most popular Ashkenaz traditional foods. Recently someone interviewed me and asked me why I think traditional food on Chanukah is so important. Aside from the meaning…
Sushi Donuts
Make it a fun family activity, a special Chanukah dinner, or even a Chanukah party program…whichever way you go, you are guaranteed a delicious experience. By now, you have probably seen sushi donuts sold in many sushi restaurants or take outs, especially this time of year. They look very pretty and hard to do. But,…
Rochie’s S’mores Challah
While you’re kneading your dough, get the kids involved and let them make their own challah creations from “The Kids Book of Challah.” Earlier today, I introduced you to my new book, “The Kids Book of Challah.” And while there’s a huge variety of challah-related recipes kids can make in the book, one of the…
