Double chocolate brownie–honey sweetened
Since childhood, I’ve loved chocolate, nearly every form, from Hershey’s milk chocolate bars,(with or without nuts) to thickly iced cupcakes, to brownies and layer cakes. The brownies I first encountered happened when I visited my father,Irving, a baker, at one of his six bakeries in Newark, New Jersey. Baking was his business for several decades…
Balsamic-Garlic Teriyaki Chicken
I love creating recipes, especially main dishes and desserts, and truly, consuming them feels just as fulfilling as the cooking process.

They have dinner parties and focus on particular themes, like root vegetables, spicy foods, foods from the Mediterranean…
Seasoned cabbage rolls with beef and rice
I remember eating and loving the flavor of stuffed cabbage as a child. As I faintly recall, the rolls were thick, the nearly translucent cooked cabbage was smothered in a red sauce that dripped off the sides; it tasted slightly sweet, but not too much. I know I loved the combination of moist beef and…
