This recipe for traditional Spanish nougat is adapted from A Drizzle of Honey. I am not a candy maker and found that you need to be focused while preparing it or it will become an unmanageable sticky mess. I used aquafaba (the liquid from a can of chickpeas) to replace the recipe’s egg whites, and…
The coconut oil in this banana bread creates a soft, moist loaf that is full of banana flavor with a hint of coconut. Nothing like some tropical flavors to get you through the winter!
Tired of pumpkin spiced everything? Take a trip to Japan this year and add some new flavors to your favorite squash. Kabocha squash gets simmered with a light sweet dashi broth that adds an umami punch to kick off the fall harvest. Enjoy this dish warm or cold.
Tarts are a great way to let fruit be the star of your dessert. If the idea of grapes in a tart has you scratching your head, you’re not alone. But grapes get deliciously soft and caramelized when baked. Try them! If grapes aren’t available or aren’t your thing, you can use any other fruit…
Tu b’Shevat is a celebration of the trees and a time to feast on dried fruits, nuts and the seven species of the land of Israel. Serve this spread at your seder (or brunch) and knock off two of the seven in one dish (pomegranates and olives). Dirtying only one dish, you can even make…
Raised in a traditional Korean household, my neighbor Rachel married a Jewish man, and their two girls were raised Jewish. Our families have eaten together often, including many dinners of traditional Korean or Jewish food. This year, I asked Rachel if she had ever made Korean latkes. Last year she sent me a recipe for…
Nothing says fall (and Rosh Hashanah/the High Holiday season) quite like apples. Instead of fussy double-crust apple pie, let your guests have some fun with mini individual crisps in ramekins. Best of all, this recipe is pareve and vegan, and if you use certified gluten-free oats, it can check all the boxes and be gluten-free,…
This is a popular dish for Israeli babies, as it combines grains (pick the one of your choice—in Israel, it’s usually made with ptitim, or Israeli couscous) and vegetables. If you prefer, add half a cup of red lentils at the very beginning (you’ll need about one-fourth cup extra water), and skip the tahini.
Infamous for its slimy texture, okra is far from everyone’s favorite vegetable, but this dish just might convert you. Buy okra pods that are evenly green and about 3- to 4-inches (5 to 10 cm) long; avoid pods that look shriveled or are soft when squeezed.
A pudding made of milk and/or cream and thickened with cornstarch, malabi is Turkish in origin, but is eaten throughout the Middle East, especially in Israel, where a version made with coconut and/or almond milk has become particularly popular as a vegan or pareve dessert. In Sephardic homes, it is often eaten on Shavuot because, according…
