And a great version is just a couple of minutes away… During photoshoots and meetings we discuss different things we’re cooking or doing and that usually becomes the content we write for BCP.

It’s not too spicy, but it still has that kick. Is jalapeno one of your favorite dips on the Shabbos table? Now you can make it even better (and adjust the heat to your family’s liking!).

Just Throw It All In and You Have The Most Refreshing Tomato Dip
If you have a food processor or mini chopper, this refreshing tomato salad/dip comes together in one whirl. My 12-year-old niece, Suri Brier, made this salad for Shabbos and everyone loved it!

It makes sense that we always prepare slow-braised meats for Shabbat. But is it even possible to have a medium-rare steak? Actually, yes. I remember, years ago, when my children were very young and not yet meat eaters, I would prepare a steak for my husband for the main dish on Friday night. We definitely…

No Oven On? Crock-Pot BBQ Brisket Is the Perfect Hot Main Dish
Put up this brisket ahead of time and it’s hot and ready when you need it. One of my personal favorite recipes in Dinner Done cookbook is the Oven-Smoked BBQ Brisket (page 130). I’ve made it so many times I even made a Pesach version (I will share it next Pesach!). I realized it freezes…

How to Make Arbes (Cooked Chickpeas)
They taste way better when homemade. I used to joke that, as a kid, I knew one of my siblings was having a baby any day now if, by Wednesday, I saw a bowl of chickpeas soaking in water on the kitchen counter. Many have the tradition to serve arbes and beer at a shalom…

Back To Challah Baking: Which One Is Our Go-To?
This is a conversation between the 5 of us (see what we did there?) and what we bake for our family. And it’s not just about challah. We are used to thinking in advance. So you’d think it’s natural for us to think about baking challah while we are here frying crepes and baking Pesach…

This Crock-Pot Shredded Beef is an Amazing Make Ahead Meal

With all those heavy dishes over Pesach, a light and superfreshing salad like this will be very welcome! We love this salad based off a recipe by Chef Einat Admony!
