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…
Passion Fruit Lotus Cups
So good. So rich and satisfying. So elegant. And so, so easy to make. I’ve been making this on repeat. Many years ago, my sister-in-law made this dessert while I was visiting her in Israel. I loved it so much…the tart passion fruit so perfectly balanced the rich mousse below it. And then there was…
Scallion & Sesame Cauliflower Over Rice
Warm and comforting, a little different, and definitely dig-in-able. Sides are hard. You know it’s true because most caterers and restaurant chefs don’t manage to think of new and creative sides either. Sometimes they just seem so boring. Despite that, we’ve had some great sides here on BCP! This is especially true when it comes…
The White/Whole Wheat Pull-Apart Challah Roll
Whether you like the look, or you need to please a table with people who have different preferences, this challah roll is a good idea. Does this sound familiar? You take out too many challahs because you need both regular and whole wheat, and they end up halfway done? Instead of keeping your white and…
Family Table’s Peanut Butter Chocolate Decadence Dessert
You will want to bake these today and freeze them. You really should. When we get together, we tend to do a lot of schmoozing. It’s inevitable. Put 5 women around a table and you will get lots of non-tachlis talk. We used to try to minimize the chitchat (and on days with lots to…
