It’s worth making from scratch: real, fresh shredded cabbage is nothing like its bagged sibling. I used to buy my coleslaw, every week, at Yussi’s Deli on Second Street. It was my favorite coleslaw. Then, Yussi opened his popular Snaps restaurant (read more about Yussi and see another recipe over here) and the ownership of the…

Fill Your Fridge with Quick Pickles for Pesach Snacking
If you miss your savory snacks on Pesach, these pickles are an easy crunchy alternative to yet another bag of potato chips.

Simple but Amazing: Slow Roasted Onion Chicken
Use the same recipe for any roast! This Onion Chicken (or Roast) is as simple and easy as can be. My kids call this “Bobby’s Chicken”–and there’s always a pan keeping warm in the oven on long summer Friday afternoons for Toameha.

Make Refreshing Pineapple or Mango Sorbet for Dessert: 4 Ingredients!, fruit
Who needs cake when the ices are just so good? UPDATE for 2023: I did not like the quality of the coconut milk available during the Pesach 2023 season. Hence, after the first couple batches, I made my mango sorbet rather with a mixture of fresh mango and simple syrup. I filled a 32 oz…
