According to the Telegraph, tiramisu is the Italian word non-Italian speakers know best — after pizza, spaghetti, espresso and mozzarella. Given it’s delightful texture and taste, that’s no surprise to me. Thankfully, the delicious confection is nearly as easy to make as it is to enjoy.

Hiker Steve Rock created these healthy, delicious snacks and cautions that they will “kick you down the trail a bit.” As they energize you for your day, they might also awaken our awareness of the seven species of the land of Israel — two grains and five fruits.

If you don’t have lemongrass, don’t sweat it — the ginger, garlic and spices make it flavorful enough, though lemongrass does add an herbal-meets-citrus element that’s like nothing else. And if you don’t have fresh ginger, powdered works too — though you will…
I stared into the refrigerator during the recent cold spell and thought to myself, “I have nothing in the house.” What I meant was that the milk was running low, the fresh vegetables and fruit were at a minimum, and there was no raw beef, lamb, chicken or fish to cook. Loathe to go outside,…
