The Yemenite zhug is a type of spread or sauce used to simply spice things up J In Israel, it is mostly used as an addition to Falafel and I personally just love it on a piece of bread with good cheese or Hummus spread on it.

Rainbow Trout in Red Sauce – A Mediterranean Delight
I like fish as much as I like a good steak. They are easy to make and absorb flavors well. I usually make Salmon because its texture is closer to chicken and I like that, but this time I decided to make a different fish for our Friday dinner.
Asian Style Coleslaw Salad

I know now that it’s funny I always waited for this special treat, because after all it’s just a hard boiled egg. So yesterday I celebrated, well…Wednesday, by making deviled […]
