Roasted Cabbage Salad

A couple of weeks ago, I was lucky enough to be in Israel along with a delegation with the mayor of NYC, Mayor Adams. There is NOTHING quite like an Israeli hotel breakfast, but the dish that got my attention was a roasted cabbage salad on the salad buffet that changed the way I looked at cabbage salad forever! Roast before you dress? oh YES YES YES!! I met the chef and I had to ask him about my favorite dish, and he graciously shared with me how to make it!

Roasted Cabbage Salad

1 head green cabbage, chopped into large chunks
3-4 tbsp extra virgin olive oil
kosher salt and pepper to taste
1/3 cup sliced almonds
1/4 cup chopped dill

Tahini Dressing:

½ cup tahini paste, stir if separated
1 clove garlic, grated
juice of ½ lemon
1/3-1/2 cup ice water
kosher salt, to taste

Method:

Preheat oven to 450 degrees. Spread the cabbage out on a parchment lined baking sheet and toss with olive oil, salt and pepper. Roast until tender and caramelized around the edges, tossing occasionally, about 25 minutes.

While the cabbage is roasting, spread the almonds on a parchment lined baking sheet and toss with a bit of olive oil. Transfer to the oven with the cabbage and roast for a few minute until lightly toasted, taking care it does not burn. Remove from the oven and sprinkle with salt.

For the tahini dressing, whisk the ingredients until creamy.

When the cabbage is done, toss with some of the tahini dressing until coated. Add most of the dill and sliced almonds. Transfer to a serving bowl and garnish with additional dill and toasted almonds.

Pecan Pie Date Bark

Date bark is all the rage these days, the snickers version being the most popular! But I’ve been mashing up dates for years! My date peanut chews in Millennial Kosher are a crowd favorite (and taste just like the classic!), and my pecan pie date bites from the same book are equally crowd-pleasing. I’ve done so many variations over the years, including savory stuffed dates, so this Thanksgiving-inspired twist on the viral bark was a no-brainer! The graham cracker makes them crunchy, the candied pecans make them super buttery, for a delicious guilt-free bite!

PECAN PIE DATE BARK

1 cup chopped pecans
2 tbsp maple syrup
Dash of cinnamon
Kosher salt, to taste
16 pitted medjool dates
7 Graham crackers
1 cup chocolate chips melted with 1 tbsp coconut oil
Flaky salt for finishing, optional

Preheat oven to 375°. Stir the nuts on a parchment-lined baking sheet, with the maple syrup, cinnamon and salt. Bake for approximately 20 minutes, stirring halfway through. Set aside to cool. Once cooled, break apart.

Press pitted dates onto a Sheet of parchment paper. Top with a second sheet and roll with a rolling pin. Top the cut side with graham crackers and cover in melted chocolate. Top with pecans and flaky salt, if desired. freeze until set. Cut into squares.

These are great straight from the freezer!

Double Pea Soup

If you’re looking for more of a classic split pea soup, this is not your recipe lol. Yes, I’ve done the classic smoky version (using smoked turkey leg to make it kosher!), and it’s a VERY popular recipe here on the blog for years now! But I wanted to lighten it up, and make the texture a little less lumpy and a little more creamy! The result: a creamy base with pops of pea pearls that add the perfect burst of sweetness to every bite!

Double Pea Soup

3 tbsp extra virgin olive oil
2 leeks, white and pale green parts only, rinsed from sand and chopped
2 stalks celery, chopped
2 large carrots, chopped
4 cloves garlic, minced
1 1/2 cups split peas
8 cups vegetable stock
5 sprigs thyme
2 bay leaves
1 tbsp soy sauce
salt and pepper, to taste
10oz frozen peas

Method:

Heat the olive oil in a large soup pot and add the leeks, celery and carrots. Saute until softened. Add the garlic and continue to saute until fragrant, 2 minutes. Add the split peas, stock, thyme, bay leaves, soy sauce, salt and pepper and bring the mixture to a boil, stirring occasionally. Reduce to a simmer and cook for about 45 minutes, until the split peas have fully softened and are falling apart. Remove the bay leaves and thyme sprigs.

Blend the soup with an immersion blender until creamy. Add the frozen peas and stir to incorporate. Serve.
