If you love chouquettes (and honestly, even if you don’t), you’ll adore these little cheese puffs flavored with herbes de Provence.

With Shavuot just around the corner, here is another easy cheesecake, the no-bake cheesecake. It has a crumbly cookie base topped with a very fresh, egg-free cream cheese filling, and is a variation on the traditional Ashkenazi cheesecake which is usually baked in the oven. You find this cake everywhere in Israel; here is the recipe to make it at home.

This cheesecake (Käsekuchen), a classic of Ashkenazi (Eastern European) Jewish cooking, is pure sweetness and nostalgia. It’s the kind of cake you find in grandmothers’ recipe notebooks, in this case, Micheline’s. It rises tall, with an airy texture thanks to the whipped egg whites.

I already introduced you to conchiglioni in this recipe for conchiglioni stuffed with mushrooms and baked in béchamel. For those who don’t know them, they are large shell-shaped pasta made for stuffing. This time I’m giving you a red version in tomato sauce, where the conchiglioni are filled with ricotta and spinach and baked until golden.

Conchiglioni are big shell-shaped pasta made for stuffing and baking until golden. Here’s my version with a mix of wild and cultivated mushrooms, béchamel and Parmesan.

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.

Little crispy cheese bites with an olive hidden inside, perfect for cocktail hour or to pack for a picnic. They’re delicious and really easy to make, and kids will love helping out.

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.

Romaine lettuce leaves stuffed with ground beef and fresh herbs. A Tunisian Jewish classic for the week of Passover, and naturally kosher and meat.

Truffles are probably the easiest chocolate bite there is. You eat them without being hungry (and without end…) and they are perfect with coffee. Here is a chocolatey, indulgent recipe with no dairy at all!

Tigrés are small, moist cakes very close to a financier, perfect for using up egg whites you don’t know what to do with. This recipe is adapted from one by Cyril Lignac. I regularly make the butter-free version and they are always a hit.

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.

This smoked salmon potato roulade is a savory take on the classic jam Swiss roll. It’s always a big hit and makes a complete meal served with a green salad.

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.

French-style peas have gone a little out of fashion, and yet they’re a simple, delicious way to cook peas. You can add cubes of cured meat, but today I’m giving you a vegetarian version.

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!
