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 The truth is, I originally made this because I hadn’t planned what to make.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…
Shabbos & Yom Tov
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…
Flanken Roast with Shallot Sauce
I’ve been making this version of Flanken Roast for almost nine years(!) and everyone still loves it. And–it happens to be absolutely perfect for Yom Tov too. Editor’s Note: While Flanken Roasts have become a super popular cut of meat, we realized that there weren’t many recipes featuring it on BCP. We have this BBQ/ketchup…
How to Make the Simanim
Perhaps your mother has been making them for you for years. But if you need to prepare them on your own, here’s a quick guide. Not all of the simanim need much preparation. These simanim are not listed in no-cook/cook order, not in order that they are eaten. Let’s start with the no-cook items: Tapuach B’Dvash. There’s…
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…
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…
Rainbow Quinoa Salad
This is my go to salad to send over to anyone hosting – as it’s so pretty and can easily be prepared in advance. Full of bright and nourishing veggies, this salad is bursting with a rainbow of colors – it makes the perfect edible centerpiece for Shalosh Seudos! I love that it can be…
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…
Potato Kugel in the Betty Crocker
Get potato kugel really quickly (and really crispy) in your Betty Crocker. We’ve been bitten by the Betty Crocker pizza maker bug and love sharing our Betty Crocker “recipes” (recipes in quotes because you don’t really need a recipe for most of the Betty Crocker cooking. Let’s start with the basics. The Betty Crocker pizza maker (or just…
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…
