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.

Asparagus season is short, so make the most of it! Here’s a pasta idea that’s a little different and really shows off the delicate flavor of asparagus.

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.

It was while making my famous savory babka that I noticed the filling I had prepared looked strangely like that famous cheese I loved to spread on bread back in France. So without further ado, here is the recipe, ready in no time at all and perfect for cocktail hour.

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.

From the 3-strand braid to the round Rosh Hashanah challah, from the shlissel challah (key challah) after Passover to the Shavuot wheat sheaf - every move animated, with a hands-free kitchen mode that reads the steps aloud.

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.

Risotto is an Italian dish worth having in your recipe notebook: it’s a base you can vary endlessly, and with the leftovers you can make delicious arancini.

I love crème dessert (French pudding cups): rich, silky and ready in no time! After sharing a chocolate crème dessert and a pistachio one, here are delicious homemade chocolate praline pudding cups. They can be made dairy-free (parve) and are gluten-free. Perfect if you have a jar of praline to use up.

Salmon carpaccio is a classic on my summer tables. It’s the kind of recipe that only asks for good ingredients to be delicious, and it always makes a lovely impression when you bring it to the table.

I really love vegetable carpaccios: they’re pretty, delicious and simple to make.
