To make Orange Glazed Chicken, you simply season defrosted frozen orange juice, pour it over the chicken and put it in the oven. Basting the chicken every 15 minutes assures that every piece will be well glazed. I like to scatter loads of extra orange slices around the chicken so […]
I grew up eating this “stick to your ribs” Split Pea Soup on many a Friday night. Like my Chicken Soup, this is my Grandma Jeannie’s recipe that was passed down through her mother Great Grandma Sarah; who, no doubt, learned it from Great Great Grandma Ida. As with all […]
Pot Roast with Beer and Vegetables was born eons ago. One day, I discovered that I had several bottles of beer in the fridge. We’re not beer drinkers; so they must have been leftover from one of my children’s gatherings. I thought: what will happen if I add this beer […]
If you are looking for a celebratory meal, try this Roast Veal with Rosemary and Thyme. As I begin to braise it, my kitchen is filled with the most amazing aroma from the fresh herbs and garlic. The onions and peppers add to the flavor of the veal; and also […]

Chopped Chicken Liver is the quintessential Jewish comfort food and always a guilty pleasure! Annie Mae used to “kasher” the livers and make the schmaltz in the kitchen of my childhood. Of course, you can buy pre- kashered livers, rendered chicken fat and even Chopped Liver at the butcher; but, […]
Every butcher I have ever used calls a different cut of meat-London Broil. In general, it is a long flat piece of meat that can be seasoned and cooked quickly. I like to keep a few in my freezer for last minute dinner guests. I find each piece serves three […]
