It’s not your typical dip–whether or not you like spicy things, you’ll love these jalapeños and lemon on your fish, challah, or sourdough. So, this was totally unexpected. This recipe came from my friend Malky Blum–and I don’t know if you so much call it a recipe, or just an amazing combination… so amazing, that…

Orange Glazed Salmon
This salmon is fresh, vibrant, plus takes only minutes to prepare. It might become your favorite weeknight dinner. Freshly baked (read hot) salmon is just better. We all know that. Now, did you know that skillet seared salmon is even better? Yes, it is. And it’s not scary to prepare at all. Pinky promise. Also,…
Creamy Butternut & Lentil Soup
Add some protein to your butternut squash soup…you might like this version more than the veggie-only version. How many years have you been making the same butternut squash soup? Forever? It’s simple, everyone likes it, and if you’re buying precut butternut squash (is that the vegetable that virtually everyone buys precut?) it’s really quick to…
The Eggplant Carpaccio Shortcut
Nobody will guess how easy to prep this really is. Add it to your menu today. Leah and Renee have been serving up this hack all summer long, and, as a result, sharing this recipe, which isn’t even a recipe, with all those who subsequently asked for the recipe. It’s that good. It’s the type that…
Kosher Kopykat: Turkey-Wrapped Dates
You may have tried these meat-filled and wrapped dates in a restaurant and thought: this is really gourmet. But perhaps you didn’t imagine just how easy peasy they are to recreate. Most of the time that I eat out at restaurants, I don’t come home with much inspiration. But then there’s the unique times where…
Another Mayonnaise-Free Dip: Super Easy Olive Tapenade
It doesn’t get easier than this olive spread that goes with any bread from challah to sourdough. If your family is like mine, you want a variety of dips that are not mayo-based. This olive tapenade has just four ingredients and none of them is mayonnaise! The most important thing when making this tapenade is…
Tuna Ceviche: The Perfect Summer Fish Course. We Never Tire Of It.
Whether you are serving it for Shabbos lunch or Shalosh Seudos, I can guarantee you will not have a drop left. Summer is here and I am not in the mood for cooked fish. Unless it’s steaming hot, just-came-out-of-the oven, type of fish. So, Friday night is easy. I usually serve this Moroccan Turbot, and we never…
Kim’s Cabbage Salad with Cilantro & Salted Cashews
Change up your slaw with this fun, spicy twist on coleslaw from Kim Kushner’s newest book The Modern Table. Editor’s Note: We shared Kim’s 15 Minute Herb Crusted Fish…and we thought what better to pair it with than a new, fresh slaw? This slaw, from Kim’s new book, The Modern Table, is such a nice…
How to Make Yussi Weisz’s Coleslaw
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…
Sina’s Simple But Amazing Roasted Bell Pepper Arugula Salad
I make a variation of this salad weekly, but this time I added roasted bell pepper and let me tell you, it takes it up a notch. The slight smoky char adds a perfect depth against the freshness of the vegetables. Feel free to play around with whatever vegetables you have. Want to know which…
