These flatbreads are not baked in the oven, rather they are baked on the stovetop in a good pan, not too flimsy so it properly retains heat. They are an amazingly delish bread on their own but go especially well with things like shawarma Chicken Shawarma or falafel Falafel From Scratch. In fact, this is […]
This is a homey dessert and comforting and easy to put together. One warning here. Don’t make it more than a day or two before serving and eating, it will lose it’s puddingy texture if left in the fridge too long and will start “weeping” not a thing to be desired. Now I did serve […]
Okay so these are simple yet a ridiculously delicious combo, elegant looking and marvelous as a first course. You’ve got sweet, salty, crispy and unctuous exploding in your mouth. All you need is 4 ingredients to make these. I even experimented with them on the grandkids on a Shabbat meal (the adults loved it but […]
I decided that I wanted at least a bit of wholegrain bread in my life, from time to time, so I decided to put some whole grain rye flour and oats together with (mostly) white flour. I cannot lie, DH won’t eat it if it’s too whole grain and I wanted it to be light […]

Since it’s still Chanukah time we have the opportunity for one more frying post (hey, I really don’t fry that often, I promise!). In any event, I needed to wait till the dust settled with the kids over and grandkids rampaging through the house (in a good way) and spending precious time together and supporting […]
It’s time for frying again, Chanukah is nearly upon us. Normally we go away with all the kids and grandkids for Shabbat Chanukah, but nothing is normal now with the war. This is part of the reason people are preparing these foods, aside from tradition, fried foods are comfort foods and we all need some […]
I had some of the kids over for Shabbat and wanted something that picky eaters would enjoy. Luckily, my butcher shop sends me Whatsapp notices when he has a sale and to my pleasure, he had chicken wings. I LOVE chicken wings but HATE cleaning them and he promised me that these would be clean […]
