The savory cake (cake salé), here with tuna and olives, is a classic you never get tired of and one you can vary endlessly. You can use this recipe as a base and adapt it however you like.

An easy, delicious recipe for the famous Russian blinis. They’re thick and wonderfully fluffy (and dairy, so kosher with smoked fish). You’ll never buy blinis again!

Have you heard of babka? Some people also call it Krantz cake. It’s the famous Ashkenazi twisted brioche that has taken Israel, and pretty much the whole world, by storm. After its success in previous years, I’m bringing back this twist on babka in a savory version.



Fish terrine is a classic of French cooking. There are versions of it ranging from the most budget-friendly to the most festive. Here I’m sharing a fresh salmon terrine that’s flavorful, light and easy to make.

Perfect for a summer meal or brunch, gravlax is raw salmon cured in a mix of salt, sugar and spices. This gentle “cooking” method gives the fish a melt-in-the-mouth texture, fragrant and full of flavor. Ideal served in thin slices, on toast or as an elegant starter. A simple, no-cook preparation that always makes an impression.

Roast beef is a classic recipe to add to your repertoire. Perfect for cold meals. Don’t forget to take the meat out of the refrigerator 30 minutes before preparing it.

Here is an excellent quinoa salad that is served warm. It is meltingly soft thanks to the sweet potato and the halloumi. A bit like the black lentil salad, it’s a complete, filling vegetarian main!

Roast chicken, a family dish that belongs in your repertoire of classics. A chicken with beautifully golden, crispy skin and meltingly tender meat. This recipe is always a hit; I’ve been making it for several years now and I wouldn’t change a thing.


Beef chuck is made for slow cooking. This chuck roast with mushrooms is a simple, flavorful recipe: golden onions, meltingly tender braised meat and a rich, silky mushroom sauce scented with thyme and garlic. Kosher and meat.

Meltingly tender meat, and a wonderfully fragrant sauce of slow-cooked onions and confit garlic that coats every bite. A recipe you will make again and again!


A deeply chocolatey mousse that makes a delicious sound when you dip your spoon into it! I don’t know about you, but my barometer for a successful chocolate mousse is partly tied to the noise my spoon makes the moment I dip it in for that first taste. It’s good, super easy and satisfying! And a bonus here, it’s dairy-free!

Here is a specialty of Tunisian Jewish cooking that goes wonderfully with your chicken broth. Minina is a kind of savory egg and chicken cake, cooked in a water bath, which gives it an unmatched tenderness. I’m sharing our family recipe for a classic Minina.

Mhamar are a Tunisian Jewish specialty of vegetables stuffed with meat. It’s a complete meal and a nice change of pace for using ground beef. You can make them ahead and eat them warm or cold with a squeeze of lemon juice! They’re also traditionally made for Passover, swapping the breadcrumbs for matzo meal.



Herring and potato salad, or hareng pomme à l’huile, is another French bistro classic that everyone loves. It’s very simple to make and, as is so often the case, its success depends mostly on the quality of the ingredients: good potatoes and good herring.
