A few years ago, I was visiting in Gibraltar and on Shabbat afternoon Paulette and I walked over to visit with our friend Estrella. She is a terrific cook (I’ve posted other recipes on the blog she’s given me, such as Gazpacho a la Estrella) and whenever we go over to her house I know […]
I was all psyched to make chicken in teriyaki sauce, opened my cupboards and what did I find? I didn’t, no teriyaki sauce! Aargh, how frustrating. Okay, I decided it was high time to just learn to make my own. Now I knew the basics, soy sauce, ginger, garlic etc. but I figured I would […]
As I’ve mentioned in the past, salmon is one of my favorite “fast foods”. It’s quick and easy to prepare and can be made in endless interesting ways to tempt the palate. You can have it ready in about 30 minutes from start to finish, even less depending on the method of prep. I wanted […]
DH and I have very dear friends, Vivi and Steve, whom we have known since we got married (over 40 years ago! Whoa!). We have stayed in touch over the years, getting together whenever possible when they are in Jerusalem or we are in the States and have had the pleasure of hosting their kids […]

This technique works for pretty much any roast you will roast on your rotisserie grill and if you have a thermometer to check the meat’s temperature for true accuracy, even better. If you don’t have one, I can give you an approximation but know that it’s not exact. While I have made chickens on the […]
It’s nice and warm here and it’s barbecue weather. And yeah, I will soon enough post my barbecue entrecote roast but this is about the buns for your hot dogs or hamburgers. Or ya know, for sandwiches. Or just cuz ya wanna eat a soft squishy delicious (OMG delicious) roll. So I was looking for […]
