Shepherd’s Pie Potato Skins + Behind the Scenes of Perfect for Pesach
Shepherd's Pie Potato Skins + a peek behind the scenes making the hot new cookbook, Perfect Unless you're not following me on any of my social media chanels (whyyyyyyy?), you already know about this really exciting project I've been involved in: I photographed my friend Naomi Nachman's brand-new pesach cookbook, Perfect for Pesach. Now, you can scroll down for an amazing sample recipe from the book, but I thought it would be fun to take you guys on a little behind the scenes adventure to see what goes into a cookbook photoshoot. First, we had to pick a date. Naomi and I knew that the photoshoot would take about two weeks, full days, morning to night, so we had to both clear our … [Read more...]

Roasted Vegetable Potato Salad
Roasted Vegetable Potato Salad is a totally different take on Potato Salad that's perfect as a Passover Recipe or for all year round! It's that time of year again, huh? I keep trying not to think about Passover's imminent arrival, about all the work that has to be done before it comes, but the world just won't let me forget it! All of my local groceries are busy hiding the bread, crackers, and other such chometz (non-kosher-for-Passover) foods down the hall, behind the partition, down a steep flight of stairs, and through a radioactive screen. Ok, I am exaggerating slightly, but I kinda resent having to go searching for some bread if I want to make a sandwich. You can probably guess … [Read more...]
Two Tone Stuffed Potato Cups
Raise your hand if you need another potato dish this Passover? You too? I knew it wasn't just me. I mean, there is such a ridiculous amount of potatoes floating around come Passover. And if your family is anything like mine, they're groaning at the thought of more potatoes. My trick? Change things up a little. Roasted potatoes, baked potatoes, fried potatoes...they only get you so far. So if you're in need of a new idea, I've got one for you. But first, let me explain about Passover recipe testing and the measures of success. There's a point, I promise. Some of you might disagree, but overall I think we can pretty much agree that there's a whole different bar for Passover food. What might … [Read more...]
Pesto Potato Pinwheels
Let me preface this post by telling you that I'm typing it up on my (barely functional and very old) iPhone 4 (because my iPhone 5 isn't expected for another two weeks- boo!) on the bus, headed home from work. And by "work" I don't mean my usual "very tame" 9 hour work day. I mean an Advil-sustained, coffee and diet-coke guzzling absolutely intense ten and a half hour work-athon. Yeah. Cause that's what happens when your company closes ten days straight in celebration of a holiday. Not fun. Wait. I should clarify. Vacation is fun. Coming back isn't. Wait, was that obvious? Also, I'm probably not coherent. Consider yourselves warned. Oh, and I'm not finished complaining about my work day. … [Read more...]
