Who knew falafel or hummus could taste so fabulous when they don’t come out of a bag or a tub? Wait till you taste these funky cookies. Minted lamb kebobs; schug; eggplant salad; falafel; Israeli salad; hummus-tehina; Sephardi sesame anise “Kaak”. Monday October 22nd DAIRY-FREE FEAST My next cookbook, “Levana Cooks Dairy-Free!” will be coming out any day around this date. Just a few excerpts and you will get an idea of how wonderful it is. Wild mushroom soup; spinach lasagna; chicken breasts in mustard cream sauce; marinated tofu tomato salad; crème caramel. Monday October 29th THAI FEAST How can it not be great, with those fabulous flavors? And almost too pretty to eat yet quite simple to make. Mock crab Pad Thai; vegetable lettuce wraps; Thai beef soup; tofu satay; coconut rice pancakes. Monday November 5th WINTER SALADS Salads for main course are a great idea year round, and they allow for much flexibility while they get substantial enough to be a one-dish meal. Lentil smoked turkey chicken salad; Salade Nicoise with fresh tuna; rice noodles with mock crab salad; tofu bean corn salad with guacamole. Tuesday November 13th THANKSGIVING FEAST This demo always makes my case for me: delicious, seasonal and elegant never needs to be overwhelming or expensive or worse, heavy and rich. Yellow pepper and corn chowder; baked turkey with apple chestnut dressing; orange mint relish; baked butternut squash with pecans and currants; cabbage fennel salad; warm cranberry crisp with coconut sorbet.

    OILY GOODNESS Getting Ready for the Oily Fragrance and Tastes of Chanukah

    OILY GOODNESS Getting Ready for the Oily Fragrance and Tastes of Chanukah Sfenj (Moroccan Doughnuts) By Michael Solomonov Makes 8 to 10 Ingredients 1 tablespoon dry active yeast 3 tablespoons sugar 4 tablespoons plus 3/4 cup warm water 1 2 /2 cups plus 2 tablespoons flour Zest from 1 orange 1 /2 teaspoon kosher salt 2 cups canola oil 1 cup honey 1 /2 cup ground pistachios Directions 1. Dissolve the yeast and sugar in a medium-sized bowl with the 4 tablespoons of warm water. Let the yeast starter stand for approximately 15 minutes until it is frothy and blooming, so the yeast starter doubles in size. 2. Sift the flour into a large mixing bowl, then add the orange zest and salt. Make a small well in the middle of the flour and pour the yeast starter into the well. Incorporate the yeast mixture by making a swirling motion with your fingers in the middle of the well, while slowly streaming in the remaining ¾ cup of warm water. Knead the mixture inside of the bowl with palm of your hands for approximately 15 minutes until the dough is very smooth. Cover with a clean towel and set aside in a warm place to rise until it’s roughly double in size, approximately 1 hour. 3. When the dough has almost finished rising, fill a large pot with the canola oil and heat until it reaches 350ºF on a thermometer. With wet hands, lightly punch down the dough to deflate. Pull off a piece of donut batter that is approximately the size of a small egg.
