Whether you want the shortcut version or you’ll roll up your sleeves and make them from scratch, you can make your own kreplach. Kreplach may be that one recipe that you don’t make. You either buy it, or wait for your mother, mother-in-law, grandmother, aunt, adopted mom, Rebbetzin… really anyone OLDER than you who knows…

Basics: Homemade Caramel Sauce

Basics: Homemade Caramel Sauce

Sure, you can buy it. But a homemade caramel sauce is just so good and satisfying. (Plus! No special equipment needed.) When you make caramel by yourself, you can taste the simplicity and purity. Plus: Caramel lasts a long time in the fridge, so you can even make it now for Shavuos. First, combine the…

The Basic Sewing Kit Every Household Needs

You only need a few items to be prepared for the most common mending needs. Unless you are someone who actually sews, you don’t need much in your sewing kit. Pre-assembled sewing kits come with threads in an array of colors that we’ll never ever use–and those just add clutter. We put together our recommendations…

Love the look of a neatly wrapped gift but can’t quite manage to get it right? We broke it down for you. Somehow, this important life skill is not included in any curriculum of childhood, but eventually you grow up and want to present a nice gift. With a few simple steps, you’ll have a…

Hummus/Chummus can be the start of an amazing meal.

Basics: How We Make Our Chicken Soup

by Between Carpools | March 10, 2021 | 17 comment(s)

Basics: How We Make Our Chicken Soup

Our basic section wouldn’t be complete without the most basic Jewish food of all – some classic chicken soup.  We all agreed that we needed to have a BCP Basics post about chicken soup. But we couldn’t all agree on the best recipe. Because everyone knows, chicken soup is personal. There’s no right way or…

Basics: How to Make a Classic Hamantaschen

Stuck indoors during this snowy Adar? Bake a batch of hamantaschen with the family. At one of our photo shoots, we were discussing the need to post a classic hamantasch recipe. None of us has one that we love, so we were tossing around ideas of whom to ask. Our bookkeeper Shana was at our…

Basics: How to Make Ice

This is the only technique for making ice that you’ll ever need. And it’s easy, really! Your ice machine is broken. This isn’t a major issue in many families (like for those who prefer room temperature water), but for others, it can be catastrophic. After all, what does mom do if she really wants to…

How Do You Make Your Cholent?

by Victoria Dwek | January 14, 2021 | 39 comment(s)

How Do You Make Your Cholent?

Want to change it up? We peeked into each other’s slow cookers for ideas.  I always thought that cholent was the kind of thing you don’t touch. And if I ever wanted to experiment and make another cholent, I’d have to make two cholents, just in case the new one didn’t work out.  My cholent…

Basics: Make Donut Glaze and Decorate ‘Em Yourself

Basics: Make Donut Glaze and Decorate ‘Em Yourself

Sure, you can buy donuts that are ready to go. But if you decorate donuts yourself, it’s even more fun. Get out that food coloring that you hide way high up in the pantry and all those toppings. They’ll enjoy these donuts more than any other they’ll have over Chanukah (because it’s so much fun…
