Whether you like the look, or you need to please a table with people who have different preferences, this challah roll is a good idea. Does this sound familiar?

Family Table’s Peanut Butter Chocolate Decadence Dessert
You will want to bake these today and freeze them. You really should. When we get together, we tend to do a lot of schmoozing. It’s inevitable. Put 5 women around a table and you will get lots of non-tachlis talk. We used to try to minimize the chitchat (and on days with lots to…

Maple Soy Rotisserie-Style Chicken Thighs
Sweet and salty, quick and easy, and simply a great chicken. Whenever I catch myself walking past the rotisserie chicken stand in ShopRite or other big box stores of the like, I can’t help but lay my eyes on it for an extra couple of seconds thinking, “this cooking style makes chicken so good.” Was…

Why This is the Best Urn I’ve Ever Used
I’m happy to recommend this one over and over again. I remember when my last urn broke. I wasn’t jumping in to commit to a new one until I found one that had the features that I wanted. I looked at what other people used. I asked questions about what they liked and didn’t like. …

Sina’s Pomegranate Challah
This is a beauty. Make them as rolls, or as a pull-apart challah for a special start to the Rosh Hashanah meal. We know Sina Mizrahi for having a knack for making everything just more beautiful. So when she played around, and instead of making regular challah, made Pomegranate Challah for Rosh Hashanah, we wanted…

Balsamic Dill Salmon
This one has become one of my go-to easy Shabbos day salmon recipes. With fresh herbs and served cold, it’s light, bright and perfect for a summer lunch. I was trying to track down the origin of this recipe, so I could share it with all of you. I’ve been making it for years and…

Caramelized Onion Chicken
It might take a couple extra steps–but this dish is that “notch up” chicken you’ve been missing on the menu. One afternoon, I set out to make Chicken Marsala for dinner. I didn’t, though, like the look of the mushrooms I had on hand. It was time to improvise. I worked with the remaining ingredients…

Lemony Lentil and Beet Salad
I’ve been a fan of this salad ever since I spotted it on someone else’s table. Many years ago, when I was a single girl in seminary, I was at Alice’s, a restaurant that used to be in Avenue U in Flatbush (no longer open), and I saw this salad come to someone’s table. It…

Basics: How To Make Garlic Confit
Also: how to make it in bulk and save time and money while doing so. I used to make garlic confit every Friday. Ever since my family was introduced to the goodness of hot challah (or sourdough) on a Friday night accompanied by garlic that is charred and caramelized just so that it spreads like…
