Truffle Mac ‘N Cheese takes the traditional Mac ‘N Cheese to a new level. Many years ago, when my children were still in school, we traveled to Paris for Winter vacation. Naturally, we visited the Louvre. After several hours of actually seeing the amazing art and sculpture that we had […]
I first read about how to make Boeuf Bourguignon in Julia Child’s Mastering the Art of French Cooking and was hooked. I then set my mind on creating a kosher version. At first, I actually did brown each beef cube individually. What an annoying task. It was my brother in […]
This Riced Egg Mold is a very old family recipe that my Mother’s family made for card parties and brunches. Mayo free, it is a very light dish. My family used to serve it with Russian Dressing. In this picture, I’ve plated the Riced Egg Mold with a tomato salad […]
