Pot Pie Dough
I dubbed this mixture Pot Pie Dough because it forms a firm tight seal over Pot Pies but is too dense to be used for a regular pie. It is easily and quickly made in an electric food processor. Make it in one shot if you have a large bowl. […]
Hamantaschen Fillings
Hamantaschen fillings can take many forms. My favorites are the traditional poppy seed, apricot and prune. I confess, I use a prepared Poppyseed filling. Sometimes I grate a little orange zest into it and sometimes I don’t. It’s delicious if you like mohn and don’t obsess about all the little […]

Pasta Bolognese
Pasta Bolognese is the Italian word for past with meat sauce. It sounds so much more inviting than: Pasta with Meat Sauce. Pasta Bolognese is easy to make and beloved by adults and kids alike. I like to spoon it over pasta with ridges because the ridges hold on to […]

Sour Plum Sauce (Tkemali)
Sour Plum Sauce (Tkemali) is Georgian (Russian) in origin and is easily found ready made in Russian neighborhoods. It is the Georgian equivalent to catsup- although it has a much more complex flavor.
