I experimented with these one day when feeling under the weather, looking for a nice hearty bread to make but then decided to switch to rolls. After all, it’s just me and DH and once you slice into a loaf, it ain’t quite the same. So, know now, these freeze amazingly well and are still […]
I’ve made flanken many many times in my life, but usually as part of a stew or soup and I wanted to make them along the lines of barbecue spareribs/short ribs. I was looking for the consistency of super soft whilst not quite falling off the bone. Do not mistake these for Korean style flanken […]
We’ve been having cold, wet and nasty weather and DH and I have been “under the weather” (get it? cold nasty wet, never mind) so our appetites have been a bit off and yet you are hungry despite it all. So I was looking for a sort of all in one kinda meal which would […]
I’ve mentioned in the past how very blessed we are in our family relationships, not something I ever take for granted tfutfutfu. The year of my FIL’s passing was over, and my BILs and SILs and DH and I decided to spend the Shabbat together, just us, no kids or grandkids. This is a treat […]
I love quick breads, they are the perfect breakfast and/or snack and I like to play around with all different sorts of recipes for them. I particularly like date nut combos since they are both hearty and tasty. This one is a particular favorite of mine since the grated orange peel gives this quick bread […]
One Friday before Shabbat I was running crazy late since we came back from visiting our grandkids later than usual. I suddenly realized to my horror that I had forgotten to make a starchy side dish and racked my brains as to what I could whip up fast without ovens and stovetops. I remembered I […]
There are times that I crave a good stuffed pepper, weird as that may sound and while I like the meat stuffed version, I also like the vegetarian sort. I have mentioned that I like to make a big pot of brown rice so that I will have extra to eat during the week and […]
This is a grand dessert that has a number of steps and it’s why I call it a party dessert for a special occasion. You have to whip both the egg whites into a meringue and separately whip together the topping with whipped cream/non-dairy cream and while the results are gorgeous and supremely delish, it […]
When you just don’t wanna fry potato latkes, and even if you do, this is a nice hearty and delicious dish that you can serve for breakfast, lunch or dinner. Hash browns are simply shredded potatoes. You are “sauteing” the hash browns, onion and peppers right in the baking pan in the oven in butter […]
