It’s the most gorgeous of appetizers and an absolute party in a platter. “Victoria, Shana our bookkeeper said she made the Chummus Platter from Leah Nagel of Truffles and Trends and she said it’s amazing. It’s very much your type. Do you want to try it?” Absolutely, I did. I had worked with Leah Nagel…

Daniella’s Panko-Topped Kale Salad from Best of Kosher
This salad by Daniella Silver in Best of Kosher is one of our favorites… some of us are just addicted. While we were working on Best of Kosher, we thought that we would find that we were already familiar with all the “favorites!” After all, we’re food writers. We should know about all the famous…
This Easy Molten Cookie Dessert Hack Takes Minutes to Prepare
Keep two ingredients on hand and have a crowd pleasing dessert ready in (almost) no time. Who doesn’t love a dessert that oozes extra chocolate?? These molten cookies are so easy to prepare that you can hand off the task to a young child. Preheat your oven to 350F. Start with 24 frozen cookie dough…
Ramen Crunch Salad with Turkey
It’s the salad that kids and adults both love. My kids are obsessed with Ramen Noodles. If it was up to them they would eat these noodles every single day for breakfast, lunch and supper. However, since they have a mom, their life isn’t that much fun. When it comes to Shabbos and Yom Tov,…
Crispy Onions Club Steaks
Great taste and a great meat main with a five minute prep. I’m all for making meats with some great made-from-scratch sauces, like this Amazing Flanken roast with shallot sauce. Sometimes, though, you just need a quick recipe that uses store-bought ingredients yet still has great flavor. This recipe also works really well with short ribs….
Herb and Garlic Roasted Chicken, With Orange Pomegranate Gremolata
A bright and savory chicken that is not boring in taste or presentation. This chicken dish is Yom Tov worthy. It is elegant, beautiful to the eye, and delicious as well. This isn’t your typical overcooked chicken on the bone. This chicken roasts for only 30-40 minutes which will change the way you think of…
Roasted Veggie Turbot Over Sweet Potatoes
This beautiful fish dish is fitting for Yom Tov-but it’s also a complete meal for any day of the week. The truth is, I originally made this because I hadn’t planned what to make. I had picked up some fish–but hadn’t decided on a recipe. Time was short. Dinner had to be served. I sliced…
Frozen Raspberry Crumb Bar Ice Cream Cups
You’ve never had a better version of ice cream and sorbet together. Ever since we published this recipe in Dinner Done (or perhaps, beginning when we were working on the book, I’ve been making this dessert on repeat, switching off between this and the coulis and crumbs. It’s really hard for me to remember what I…
Bake Your Gefilte Fish
Forget the pot. Forget the onion. Forget the carrot. It’s 2022. Almost ‘23. We will never stop eating gefilte fish (serving it, at least. Debatable on the eating part), but, we will figure out how to simplify the cooking. Know that sticky smelly pot that you really don’t enjoy washing out? It’s a distant memory…
How to Crisp Up That Baguette or Sourdough Bread
Nothing beats a fresh loaf. But when you have one left over, you can easily make it *almost* fresh again. Do you sometimes have leftover loaves that don’t seem quite as exciting the next day? Or do you like to shop/bake ahead of time and by the time you want to serve the bread, it’s…
