I think I can get in one more Passover recipe to share with you, this week. As you know, Gnocchi is probably my favorite pasta – the one I judge all Italian restaurants, and even cookbooks, by. So, when Amy of Ess Eppis (Yiddish for Eat Something) piped up on Twitter that she’d found a [...]
With Passover and Easter coming this weekend, I wanted to create a recipe that everyone could enjoy for dessert. Actually, I was thinking chocolate. Because, aren’t you? Really? And I got inspiration from a couple of different places that you might not immediately associate with each other. It’s kosher for Passover, dairy-free, and gluten-free. It’s [...]
Congratulations! You’ve gotten past the Passover Seder meal(s) and lived to tell the tale. The pressure’s off and it’s just you and your nuclear family. But it’s only Day 2 of the 8-day holiday and you’ve still gotta eat. Time to start thinking of some more casual meals, and maybe using up those leftover matzo [...]
I was going to start Passover week with Matzo Balls, but they’re still in the freezer, so I haven’t taken any photos yet. Hold your questions – all will be explained in that post. In the meantime, let’s start with the Passover Breakfast of Champions: Matzo Brei. When I was a kid, there were two [...]
Why is it that no one can agree on the proper boiling of an egg? I know. You think I’m kidding. You think I’m grasping for a topic to write about, don’t you? Well, maybe Guilty on Count 2, but I’m really not kidding. Too many people think you can just plop an egg into [...]
The PhotoHunt theme this week is “Sweet” I can’t think of anything much sweeter than the Macaroons I baked for Passover. Okay, there’s a sweet little giveaway for my U.S. and Canadian readers at the end of this post, too! These wonderfully chewy almond and coconut drop cookies are so easy to make and keep [...]
Continuing yesterday’s discussion, I said that we’re not permitted to eat any yeast-raised breads during Passover. But we all still have to go to work and the kids have to go to school, so what are we supposed to do about lunch? I remember, as a kid, having to go to school with sandwiches made [...]
Passover starts tomorrow (Monday) night, beginning a week of probably the most food-centric holiday on the Jewish calendar. To mark the passing of our ancestors from bondage to freedom, and the haste in which that was accomplished (read your Exodus, people… No, the Bible, not the Leon Uris novel!), we are prohibited from eating anything [...]
First, I want to thank Lettergirl of Not Going Postal for that awesome award you see just to the right, there, in my sidebar. She wrote the sweetest post back on March 26th (my 20th wedding anniversary, coincidentally!) and I didn’t see it until over a week later… I’m such a doof! Mmmwah! You have [...]
