A pure and delicious eggplant salad with the simplest of ingredients. There are two types of great cooks. Some have knowledge of cooking before they officially start (perhaps they built up their knowledge little by little). Others knew nothing–they didn’t even know how to boil water for pasta before learning and catching on quickly. Rudy…

Caramelized Pearl or Cipollini Onions
This is the perfect side dish to your steaks and other meats. Steaks are one of my favorite mains to serve, especially when there’s a long Yom Tov and a lot of meals–everyone appreciates something grilled fresh (even if it’s on a grill pan) as a change from those long braised meats. There’s more about…
Flanken Roast Over Potatoes
The recipe is so easy and so good, you’ll make it over and over and will never have to look back at this recipe again! For awhile, I was obsessed with preparing another recipe on Between Carpools, this 9×13: Slow Cooked Minute Steaks and Yukon Gold by Esty Wolbe. Yes, we’d change up the cut…
Teriyaki Portobello Salad with Spiralized Carrots and Beets
This is a beautiful, new salad with the perfect amount of umami and crunch. When Renee Muller started writing a column for Ami Magazine she asked me for advice. I told her no one will invite you for meals anymore. And so it came to be. (No worries, I invite her!) In my case, my sister-in-law…
Mini Deli Wraps
These slices of wraps are pretty to serve, they’re light, have lots of flavor, and a great all-around pick-up item. It was at the cookbook launch party for Best of Kosher when were reminded about this presentation idea for wraps… and we loved it. Because when there’s lots of food on a buffet, you don’t…
KitchenAid Challah (Egg-Free!)
It’s quick, it’s easy, it’s a really good challah, it mixes in a Kitchen Aid, and bonus: it uses 7 oz plastic cups to measure. I had called a friend for a dip recipe. And she was telling me how her family loves the dips course combined with the “soft, fluffy challah.” They sit over…

The 9×13 Life: Garlic Confit And Blistered Tomato Rice
Also known as, the dangerous rice that you can eat all in one sitting. We have baked rice in a 9×13 before and we are ready to do it again. This recipe, though, is very different. More 2023 if you will. Sometimes, the side dish is the star of the show. You know? This baked…
Chevy’s Pistachio Salmon
A sweet sauce, a savory crunch…it’s classic and fresh in one salmon dish. My sisters-in-law really deserve a lot of credit. Since I’ve been sharing so many recipes for years, of course I’m constantly asking them for their latest and greatest. I pick their brains and ask what they’re cooking lately. “Anything new? And can…
Outrageous Kanafe Ice Cream
There’s so much flavor in this (easy to prepare!) ice cream dessert, it’s hard to even begin describing it to you. I have had the concept of a knafeh ice cream simmering in my mind for a while now. But before we begin introducing this amazing dessert, I need to begin by crediting two other…
