experimental cooking can be tasty or turn into a snafood...
Because of this dish’s sweetness, it also would be a wonderful entrée to serve during Rosh Hashanah! This year, I’ll be pairing it with all the lovely new fruits and vegetables of the season. Crisp autumn apples with honey, pomegranate cocktails {waggle}, sweet potato and carrot tzimmes, grilled honey pears, and apple cake for dessert. [...]
Brisket can be a tricky beast to tame. In order to transform this normally tough cut of meat into a tender, juicy love-fest; you’ll need patience. Slow and low is the best way to cook a brisket. And there’s a reason for this method. As collagen cooks, it slowly turns into gelatin and dissolves into [...]
Here’s a great roll over meal. On the first night, roast a chicken {bone in, skin on, cut into 8 pieces}. Keep it simple: » Preheat oven to 350° F. » Rinse chicken and pat dry. » Season both sides with paprika, garlic powder, and pepper. » Place pieces in a deep casserole dish, or [...]
It’s safe to say the thing Mat misses most food-wise is bacon. I’ve yet to find a kosher turkey bacon {if you know of one, do tell}. And finding a kosher organic “bacon” is probably near impossible. So for now, we turn to a little thing called beef fry. Aaron’s Best {Glatt kosher meat} cured [...]
I’ve always loved tacos. But I admit I felt like a fish out of water when I first realized I was going to make tacos without loading them up with cheese and sour cream. It may sound silly, but that’s how I’m used to eating them or at least I had the option. Don’t get [...]
Here is the Baba Ghanoush version that Mat prefers. Simple yes! Much easier on me, but not so easy on the hips…or thass…or anything else that jiggles. At least that’s my opinion. I think that amount of mayo inspired a new burger recipe. So we put our burger buns together and came up with a [...]
This is another first for us. I had visions of it turning into a complete and utter snafood! Beer spilled, chicken splatted on the floor. Luckily nothing of the sort happened. It cooked perfectly on the grill and it was unbelievably delicious. The skin was crisp, the flavor amazing. It tasted almost like rotisserie chicken [...]
This is a great way to use up any odds and ends veggies you might have before they spoil… We had some leftover Swiss chard, so I added that as well. Chicken breast, chopped {season with s&p} 1/2 onion, sliced 1 small red bell pepper, chopped 1 generous handful of broccolini, ends snipped 1 generous [...]

Here you will find experimental recipes, old and new. Buried in the archives you'll find all sorts of recipes! As time went on, there was a shift and many recipes were given a kosher twist as new family changes and traditions were introduced in our home. I'm still learning and I'm certainly no expert on the ways of a kosher kitchen. But I'm taking it all in and doing my best!
PR interest? It's gotta be strictly kosher and preferably organic - drop me a line!
