I already said it a hundred times, I love potatoes and everything that is made with potatoes. Everything! Especially mashed potatoes. You don’t need much for this pie. You probably have most of the ingredients in hand (As for produce…
My mother taught me how to cook but my father taught me to improvise, not to stick to the script, not to let anything stop me from cooking. Even if I’m missing some ingredients. You can always make a dish…
If you’re one of those people who love anise-y flavors, there is no question you are going to love this salad. But if you’re not, then I kind of feel sorry for you. Sorry, but hopeful too, if you’re willing…
They are gluten-free and grain-free. Easy to make. Delicious. Fun to nibble on. Good for digestion. Different.
This is the kind of food that I eat on a daily basis, usually in the winter, when I feel that I’m coming down with something. I also avoid eating sugar and take extra vitamin C and D. It works…
I needed to bring something for a friend’s birthday picnic in nature (Franklin Canyon). I didn’t have any direction or idea, or a lot to choose from. I found a box of cremini mushrooms in the fridge and walnuts in…
Remember the days when cauliflower wasn’t popular? When she was considered boring? When no one knew what to do with her? Well those days are over, a decade ago. Now she is a mega celebrity that everyone wants to cook…
Since winter arrived I’ve been mostly braising or roasting veggies for lunch and dinner. I don’t know why but I can’t think of any other cooking methods when I am cold. It isn’t as cold in LA as it is…
Is it normal to be organized but messy? Fearful of failure but courages to start all over again? Love all foods but be fussy? Terrified of cockroaches but totally okay with spiders? Hate to fly but love to travel? Skeptical…
When I was a kid in the not-so-holy land, the only type of pumpkin – Dla’at in Hebrew, not as fun to say as pumpkin, or as Alex used to call it when he was a toddler pumpking – I…
It’s funny that I know how to make ratatouille but didn’t know how to spell ratatuille… it took me five attempts to spell it right RATATOUILLE ? I need to explain, to the French of us, that for me, any…
They have an addictive flavor and fun to make, which can be challenging when you try to avoid sugar completely. They’re all the diets friendly (Keto, vegan, Paleo…). Too friendly 🙂 if you can limit yourself to 2 maximum 3…
These are not your typical New York-style bagels or any traditional bagels, but they do have a hole and can be enjoyed with cream cheese and beet-lax, or my personal favorite, avocado. Additionally, they are much easier and quicker to…
I was going to make baked falafel, with the little I had in hand, but I over processed the chickpeas (I hummused the hell out of them.) I should’ve had used a fork to mush them. Oh well, no harm…
Once upon a time we lived in New York City, had no kids and no use for our kitchen. We had our breakfasts at our second homes Cafe Mogador or Cafe Gitane. Z used to get the baked feta and…
They’re called fritters and they may look deep-fried, but they’re not. It’s the turmeric that gives them their beautiful color and earthy flavor. Curry powder works just as well. We enjoy them for lunch or a light dinner, with a…

There are a bunch of restaurants and cafes in Tel Aviv that I like very much. One of them is Cafe Anastasia, which is vegan, refined sugar-free and mostly gluten-free. I go there occasionally for their vegan cheese plate or…
