Recipes Why 30,000 Orthodox Women Belong To This Recipe-Sharing Facebook Group
JTA — Getting dinner on the table is a challenge for any busy, modern family. With larger-than-average family sizes and religiously mandated dietary restrictions, however, mealtimes can be even more complex at Orthodox Jewish homes. On the one hand, there’s a limited number of kosher restaurants in any given area. On the other, home-cooked Shabbat…

Recipes How To Make Easy, Delicious Za’atar Chicken — When You Don’t Have Any Za’atar In The House
It’s true. I made one of my favorite easy dinners — chicken with the Middle Eastern spice blend za’atar — even after discovering that I didn’t have any za’atar left. And even with the added time it took to make my own mixture (of course I’m going to tell you how), the chicken pictured above…

Recipes 11 Of The Best Stuffed Dishes For A Plentiful (And Delicious) Sukkot
Sukkot isn’t just a festival that resembles glamorous camping, or “glamping,” with its abundant (sometimes too abundant) meals in a hut. It’s also a holiday that happens to coincide with the harvest season. Like Rosh Hashanah’s reliance on symbolic foods to guarantee a new year, Sukkot has some symbolic foods of its own: Stuffed dishes,…

This is a stunning dessert for a special occasion. It also has a nice element of surprise, as the meringue base is not quite what you might expect: gooey — almost toffeelike — rather than dry and crispy. This is due to the brown sugar in the mix. Combined with the praline cream and fresh…
