Chicken soup has long been touted as the penicillin of the culinary world. Good for whatever physical ailment you are suffering from and every mother (or father, truly, I am all for equal cooking opportunities in the kitchen) knows that the “secret” ingredient you must add that makes a good […]

CHICKEN SOUP WITH A TWIST: Comfort food for troubling times

January 8, 2021 in Recipes / SOUP by Konfidentially Kosher

I am so not a barista. I can make a decent cup of coffee without a pod or a jar of instant but it’s just a cup of coffee. In fact, while I love the aroma, flavor and taste of coffee in a drink, I do not really like drinking […]

MAKE MINE MOCHA PLEASE!

I try to do fish dinners every week. It’s a healthy alternative to meat and chicken and while fresh salmon, tilapia and trout are all on my recipe list I make it a point to use smoked fish as often as I can. Smoked fish is not just a dish, […]

Smoked Fish: Not Just For Brunch Anymore

I am a rebel without a clue when it comes to celebrating New Years Eve. There won’t be a party this year, just me and husband and son who is sheltering in place with us until the plague that is Covid is tamed. So what to do to mark the […]

CELEBRATE RINGING IN 2021 WITH SANGRIA

December 27, 2020 in drinks / Recipes by Konfidentially Kosher

With the end of the year looming large I find I have several days of unscheduled time on my hands and nothing but the diabetes inducing holiday “chick flick” movies on the tube. Nothing is open because of “plague” and of course those lucky souls trapped ooops I mean quarantining […]

Recipe Boredom? Try Making These Cheesy “Gourmet-ish” Snacks

I asked my son what he thought about Hasselbacks and his response was, “that hairy old guy from the Bay Watch Movie?????” “No thanks, pass, that movie was terrible and wasn’t he in a really woman objectifying TV series a million years ago”. Seriously, I believe I gave birth to […]

Hasselback The Potato, Not the Actor……

December 20, 2020 in Appitizer / Recipes / VEGETABLE by Konfidentially Kosher

I am a HUGE Everything But the Bagel seasoning fan. Tasty, savory, crunchy, I literally put it on almost everything these days. (shameless plug, Trader Joes is, in my opinion, the best brand out there). I was culinary curious so I decide to search out the origin of the species. […]

We all know the joke, where do you find all the Jews on December 25th? All together now. GOING OUT FOR CHINESE FOOD!! While it is somewhat of a cliché this minhag was and still is actually a thing. It has it’s origins lo those many years ago in the […]

DECEMBER 25TH AND THE JEWISH TRADITION OF EATING CHINESE FOOD

Seriously, this was my cell phone so far this week: RING RING….. “Hello, Hanukkah Hotline, what is your emergency”? “You say your kids won’t touch the low-fat jicama/banana tarragon and dragon fruit infused latkes you made? Well, kudos’s for creativity but I gotta go with them on this one, I […]

HANUKKAH NON DAIRY HOT LINE: WHATS YOUR EMERGENCY????

December 12, 2020 in DESSERT / Holiday / Pasta / Recipes by Konfidentially Kosher

I have never been what you call a traditionalist when it comes to Hanukkah. Yes, I will make potato pancakes, and, if forced, eat a soufganyot or 6 (please don’t judge me, they were small). However, when it comes to serving fried foods that I love nothing and I repeat […]
