Endive Gratin with Smoked Salmon - a Twist on the French Classic
Endive gratin with smoked salmon is a wonderful variation on the famous French endives au jambon (endives wrapped in ham). To be honest, this is the recipe that won me over to cooked endives. If, like me, you don’t love them, here is a recipe (with tips) that should help you enjoy them. And if you already do, it’s simply delicious, so you should have a treat too!

Pistachio Pudding (Crème Dessert à la Pistache)
If you love rich, silky puddings (the taste reminds me of the melt-in-your-mouth Mamie Nova puddings from French supermarkets!), these pistachio ones are for you. They’re easy to make and gluten-free. They’ve become a classic in my house, every time I have some pistachio paste on hand.

Matzo Ball Soup (Kneidlach) - Homemade Golden Chicken Broth
Matzo ball soup, or kneidlach in Yiddish, is a great classic of Ashkenazi Jewish cooking. If you’re new to it, these are dumplings made from matzo meal, served in a lovely golden chicken broth. Simple to make and delicious, it’s a beautiful recipe to introduce you to Ashkenazi cooking and a magic remedy when you catch a cold.

Cheese Bourekas - Israeli Puff Pastry Triangles
An Israeli classic, bourekas are puff pastry triangles filled with a cheese filling. Eat them warm on the go, at a picnic, or with a big salad on the side.

Kosher Beef Bourguignon - Classic French Beef Stew in Red Wine
A great classic of French cooking, beef bourguignon is exactly the kind of easy braise we all love: melt-in-your-mouth meat in a rich, velvety sauce. This kosher meat version is even better eaten the next day.

A classic of French cooking as soon as fall arrives, this comforting mushroom and chestnut soup is the one to make when the temperatures start to drop.

Mushroom Tart with Tarragon and Dill (Ottolenghi-Inspired)
I love tarts and quiches and I love mushrooms. This week, wanting a change from my usual mushroom quiche, I came across a recipe from chef Ottolenghi, which inspired this one. I simplified it with what I had on hand and adapted it to our tastes, and everyone loved it. The tarragon and dill pairing goes beautifully with mushrooms and is what gives this tart its original flavor. The classic quiche filling (eggs + cream) is replaced here by a delicious mushroom cream (which, by the way, can be made dairy-free). I’ll let you discover it!
