    Pita bread with pocket - ready to stuff with whatever you wish

    Hey guys! Pita bread ... I've seen at least 20 different versions just across the middle east, and I am not talking about the naan, chapati, armenian lavash and another quadrizillion versions of a flatbread.... However, growing up in Israel, pita in my view is only that thick flatbread with...

    Smoked chicken breast pastrami - when smoking IS healthy

    Hey guys, I love making this one - keeps well in the fridge, and if you vacuum pack it and freeze - easy can hold for a month or so... Pastrami is actually originated from Romania, there they call it "pastrama", and they do make it from beef, lamb, turkey, so I said, why not chicken?! Also...

    "Sunday Fair" style smoked lamb shanks

    Hey guys, Lamb shanks - one of the most underestimated cuts, and absolutely undeservedly. I love those braised or, in this case, smoked pretty much the same way they smoke turkey legs. So here we go! So simple, so delicious - few lamb shanks, rubbed with olive oil and sprinkled with Kajun...

    Upside down panna cotta with chocolate sauce - a "dance-in-the-plate" dessert!

    Hey folks! Ever since my trip to Toscana I still try to master the panna cotta dessert. There really can be endless variations of how the panna cotta can be served. This time I chose the "dance-in-the-plate" option: once the panna cotta is ready, carefully turn it over on a plate, and then -...
