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 […]
Hamantaschen Dough
I only make Hamantaschen Dough once a year. I roll it out; cut it into circles and fill them with mohn (poppyseed) or a thick fruit purée. We love the traditional apricot and prune; but you can use any thick fruit flavored jam you choose. They can be iced and […]

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.
