Honey cake is commonly eaten during Rosh Hashana (the Jewish New Year), and this one is delicious and gluten-free! Apples and honey are the most synonymous with Rosh Hashana. With the sweetness of a little drizzle of honey, we wish each other a sweet new year. Whether dipping apples into honey, using it as a […]
Eggs have had such a bad reputation for so long. So many people avoid eggs or only have the egg whites as they are worried out cholestrol or the calories that the yolk contains. Let me tell you a secret…. if you leave out the yolk of the egg you are leaving out the most […]
“Don’t have more than three eggs per week”, “Have as many eggs as you like”, “Only have the egg white and not the yolk”. Well. Which one is it, because this is damn confusing! It’s amazing how a tiny, oval food item, that is found in so many foods, has caused such controversy. The real […]

Put away your sugar-coated challah, pumpkin pie and kichel and get ready to dish up a low carbohydrate (low carb) shabbat meal. Everybody from their neighbours’ uncle’s cousin seems to be on a low carb diet, and shabbat seems to be the hardest time of the week to stick to these rules. But do you […]
Last winter, I made a very similar soup to this one. It’s amazing how many variations of one soup can be made, just by switching one or two ingredients. What’s useful with this soup, is that it’s filled with green goodness, and can be eaten as a relatively calorie free starter or snack in a […]
