Middle Eastern

Mamoul Cookies

By Linda Capeloto Sendowski 2 Comments

I made these the other day while preparing for a dairy lunch party.  I used my original recipe from a post I did in 2014.  The recipe worked great, correct measurements, the only thing different instead of water I used the juice from the orange I zested and for the corn flour I … [Read more...] about Mamoul Cookies

By Linda Capeloto Sendowski 3 Comments

Tabouleh is the perfect summer salad, refreshing, healthy, and easy to make.  Served cold or room temperature, it is a fine accompaniment to grilled kufte, kabob, and chicken along with some pita and hummus.  Tabouleh is also wonderful on a buffet line up for barbecues.  The … [Read more...] about Tabouleh
