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.

This side of salmon is easy to prep, yet has a spectacular presentation. One Friday, it was almost Shabbos and I hadn’t yet prepared the fish. I needed an idea–and fast. So, I grabbed whatever I had available in the fridge. And, you know what? The result wasn’t only beautiful, it was also so popular,…
How to DIY Ice Cream King Cones
Scooping ice cream when there’s a big crowd? No thanks. Instead, serve king cones to the kids (and the adults). I first served these king cones at a Chanukah party–and never mind the kids, the adults were grabbing them. And there were so many “pros” to this dessert! One–no ice cream scooping mess.
