Light Passover Bouscoutou

After a first Passover version of the famous bouscoutou, here’s another one that disappeared so quickly I had to share it with you. The texture is very light, without matzo meal, fluffier than the first one, it vanishes before your eyes! It’s truly one of those easy cakes with few ingredients to add to your Passover recipes and gluten-free recipes.

No-Bake Kosher Cheesecake

As Shavuot approaches, I’m adding a new easy cheesecake here, the no-bake cheesecake.

You’ll find this cake everywhere in Israel—here’s the recipe to make it at home.

Polish Cheesecake (Käse Kuchen)

This kosher Polish cheesecake (Käse kuchen), emblematic of Ashkenazi Jewish cuisine, is a true delight of sweetness and nostalgia. It’s one of those recipes you find in grandmothers’ recipe notebooks, in this case, Micheline’s. It stands tall with an airy texture, thanks to the beaten egg whites.
