News YID.DISH: Homemade Pizza
I’m sure that like me, many of you cannot get Hanukkah cooking and baking out of your minds! I will be making potato leek latkes, homemade apple sauce and some chewy ginger cookies tonight. As you can tell, I’m in full holiday mode! Anyway, if you are looking for a break from the holiday food…

News Yid.Dish: Israeli Cous Cous with Summer Squash Ragout
Like many other people, this summer has been full of summer squash! It almost seems to be falling from the sky. I have made zucchini bread (and muffins), I also made these zucchini fritters (really just a summer latke). I just got some more zucchini and yellow squash in my CSA box and I really…

News Yid.Dish: Asparagus Risotto

News Yid.Dish: Matzoh Crunch
So we only have a few days left of Pesach… and I happen to be quite happy about this! It’s not that I don’t understand Pesach or why we don’t eat leavened things – I do. I actually think the story of Pesach reminds us, as Jews, of some important lessons. The reminder that I…
