Kabocha Squash, Tahini and Olive Oil Loaf Cake
A few weeks ago, I was experimenting in the kitchen before Shabbat and uploaded a snap of a cake I’d made to Instagram. It was a loaf cake, an odds-and-ends kind of thing, made with the remainder of a can of pumpkin, a mixture of the oat and buckwheat flours I had in my pantry,…

Salted Chocolate Rye and Vanilla Bean Olive Oil Ice Cream Sandwiches
Ice cream wars! Who else had them as a kid? Chocolate or vanilla! Strawberry or chocolate, vanilla or both?! I always chose chocolate, and I got a fair amount of flack for it. But vanilla never held a candle to chocolate for me. It was boring, tasteless and way too basic. I’m still not much…

Mushroom, Thyme and Potato Galette
Here is a list of foods I don’t like truly despise: pineapple. Celery. White chocolate. (Is it chocolate? Is it plastic?) Banana anything. Mush…rooms?

Classic Latkes with Dilled Sour Cream, Lox & Chives
Happy Chanukah everyone! Today I’m sharing a recipe for my favorite classic latkes. These latkes are flavorful, super simple and have a crispy golden crust, just like I love them. They’re made with Yukon gold potatoes for a nice buttery flavor, and a little bit of egg, fresh black pepper and sea salt binds the…
