Or better, the struggle. Back in 2012, I wrote a recipe in Ami on how to properly roast chestnuts. Or better, looking back, that was what I thought was the ONLY way one should eat a chestnut. I was still very new here and very European and very much homesick, especially for the roasted chestnuts…

Our Team’s Top 21 BCP Weeknight Dinners
Need some weeknight dinner inspiration right about now? These are the family-friendly dinners our families love. “When you’re opening up the app or website to prepare dinner on a weekday, which recipes are you most likely looking up?” I asked the team one day. It didn’t take more than a few minutes for the links…
Overnight Oats
Prep them once and you’re set for the week. Bonus: Kids love this healthy breakfast! On one motivated Sunday I got into the food prep mood. Do you know how you get all into something…and go all out…and even surprise yourself and send photos of your stacked salads and breakfasts of the week to your…
The Olive Salad That Can Be Called A Dip
Don’t you love when that impulsive recipe becomes a keeper? My sisters hosted a shalosh seudos this summer, and while I recognized most of the dishes (maple side of salmon, Sushi Salad, Israeli salad… to name a few) there was this one salad that I never tasted before. And it was so so good. Different….
Guacamole with Tri-Color Chips
It’s that simple, fresh thing that everyone loves. Sometimes, we rack our brains to think of something new and interesting to serve over Yom Tov. But you know what? Sometimes you don’t even need to think so hard. Sometimes, it’s the things that are the simplest–the ones that are so obvious you don’t even think…
Silan Sweet Potato Fry Salad
A Tahini Dressing is the perfect match for these silan-roasted sweet potatoes. One day, Esti posted on our “BCP New Content” chat that she had made sweet potato fries that were particularly good. “Didn’t measure. French fry blade. Oil, teriyaki, silan, salt, garlic powder, sesame seeds. 425F for about 25 min. Yum!! Gonna put it…
Silan Sweet Potato Fries
They take two minutes to toss together, with a flavor that transcends the quick prep. Enjoy them fresh, or use them to make a salad really special. I’ve been making sweet potato fries the same way for a couple years now and decided we needed a change…Something with bigger flavor. I put on a bit…
Pessy’s 6-Ingredient Minute Steak Roast
It’s the best value in the meat showcase and will be perfectly soft and tender. Everyone has a different idea of what constitutes a perfect meat. Growing up, a successful roast had to be melt-in-your-mouth soft. Most of the time, fall off the bone, soft meats tend to be very fatty and also very expensive. …
Asparagus and Sweet Pea Soup
A perfect way to kickstart soup season and give your family a warm hug. As a chef, and recipe developer I find creating soups to be more on the challenging side of recipe development. Creating soups is all about taking humble vegetables and transforming them into a hearty, and comforting dish that is packed with…
Make Your Own Charcuterie/Meat Board (+ Freezer Friendly)
It’s such a satisfying way to start a Yom Tov meal. And you don’t need to spend a lot! Plus, everything can be done ahead. Thanks for Between Carpools, I’ve already served many of these. All of you have access to all of these recipes just like I do. Now, we’re just going to go…
