My Best Brisket

By Linda Capeloto Sendowski 3 Comments

Brisket was a dish I became familiar with after I was married.  My Sephardic mother never served this ultimate pot roast when I was growing up.  I loved brisket the first time I tasted it.  The juicy, melt in your mouth, savory-sweet meat is an easy dish to make for everything … [Read more...] about My Best Brisket

Pistachio Biscotti with Dried Cherries

By Linda Capeloto Sendowski Leave a Comment

That first bite into biscotti is sublime.  These are just sweet enough, with a blend of flavors subtle enough not to interfere with your demitasse of espresso, and crisp enough to stand up to dunking in hot tea.  I had an idea to use pistachios, dried cherries, and orange rind. … [Read more...] about Pistachio Biscotti with Dried Cherries

Kufte de Prassa, Leek and Ground Beef Patties Somewhere between a meatball and patty is a kufte.  Made with ground beef, they are light and fluffy with a delicate crisp exterior, and redolent with the taste of autumn leeks.  Serve this recipe as one of the starters, Simanim, … [Read more...] about Leek Kufte

Stuffed Veal Breast

By Linda Capeloto Sendowski Leave a Comment

Stuffed veal breast is hard work to make.  It is a large unwieldy piece of meat, hard to fill with stuffing, and harder still to carve successfully.  Veal breast is my husband’s favorite.  I make it every Passover and change out the panko crumbs called for in the recipe with … [Read more...] about Stuffed Veal Breast
