Sweet Potato Pie

By Lisa GoldbergIn RecipesPosted February 29, 2016

This sweet potato pie recipe comes to us from Sharon Goldman of Colorado, USA. We found Sharon through her (very proud) son who heard about our search for the best cooks in the world. It is a wonderful pie - very American and quite unusual for us Aussies. We think it...

A little taste of the incredible Dolomites.

Based in San Cassiano, I absolutely loved every minute. A really perfect ‘time out’ ❤️❤️

Italy but not. 
Austrian and Swiss alpine vibes all round.

Dolomite mountains, sandy slopes, rocky outcrops, green meadows and rolling hills, steep ascents, stone gorges, foggy peaks, gorgeous refugios. We did as much as we could in 5 days! And we have sore legs to prove it 🙈

Can’t wait to do it all again🙌🙌

It’s time for a huge global food celebration, are you ready to join us?

Happy 90th birthday, Claudia Roden❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️
And happy 30th anni for your incredible groundbreaking book, The Book of Jewish Food💙💙💙

We created this ‘Ricotta Cheesecake Slice’ for our new book, A Year of Jewish Cooking.
And then we compared the recipe to Claudia Roden’s Cheesecake and it was uncanny, they were just so similar.

We’ve made the cake once again and have now added a bit of Claudia’s touch. We have used Quark, a curd farm cheese in place of our ricotta and added lemon juice, as Claudia did. 
With Merelyn’s Hungarian mum’s filling, Lisa’s Polish Auntie Leah’s lattice,
and Claudia’s magic in our recipe and in our hearts, this cake is family in every layer and a nod as always to tradition, to heritage, and to community.

20 years ago, we started Monday Morning Cooking Club to preserve Jewish recipes here in Australia.
We were always impressed and inspired by Claudia’s work in documenting the food and traditions of the global Jewish community through her bible, The Book of Jewish Food.

It’s been a joy and an inspiration to have Claudia by our sides in the kitchen for decades. She has lead the way for so many of us with commitment and precision, joy and deliciousness, celebrating the story and the tradition behind every recipe. In a word, incredible!!!

Huge thanks to the fabulous @foodishanu for inviting us to this global party, we’re honoured to be celebrating two such wonderful milestones. And we’re so excited to introduce Claudia’s extraordinary legacy to a new generation through our voices alongside today’s Jewish food creators.

❤️💙❤️💙❤️💙

“Bondi Ev’s glazes are beautifully bold, whether muted or vivid in colour, and the imperfect edges bring me the same joy as rustic cooking. This is what I want on my table, creating the right backdrop to carry on our traditions and to feed the soul.”

This is my quote, proudly on the new @bondi_ev website 🙌🙌

I am seriously in love with these gorgeous (and I mean seriously GORGEOUS!!) ceramics from @bondi_ev 🔥🔥

And the really great news is their brand new fabulous website is now LIVE.

And so easy to find at bondiev.com

Luscious enough?

Recipe in our new book, A Year of Jewish Cooking.
Olive Oil Chocolate Mousse.

Getting ready for Shabbat dinner (made it yesterday) with this simple yet outstanding dessert.

And the bonus for some at my table?
It’s gluten free. 
It’s dairy free.

And it’s really REALLY bloody delicious.

Happiness = a Happy Pancake in Ginza, Tokyo.
Probs one of the most touristy things to do but it’s actually bloody delicious.
Nothing gourmet, nothing fancy, just what it is.
Polished off that whole plate all by myself: 3 simple, fluffy pancakes, golden syrup, whipped cream and vanilla ice cream🙌🙌🙌

Anyone have a tried and tested recipe for these that works at home?
