Danilo's Holiday Meat Safety Tips
And to help you with the proper handling and preparation of the most popular holiday meats, here are some holiday meat safety tips. Follow these guidelines and your holiday celebrations will be memorable -- for all the right reasons!

Molly's Strawberry Fool
A super easy, fool-proof (despite the name) dessert that is beyond delicious and makes the most of spring's first strawberries.

Giora's Simple Matzo Brei
Matzo brei is so easy-to-make and tasty that it has become a Passover staple. My kids love matzo brei so much that they ask for it all year round. While there are fancy matzo brei recipes with vegetables and spices, my kids prefer to make and eat this simple matzo brei recipe.

Lisa & Tony's Spanish Arab-Style Lamb Recipe - Cordero Moruno
Spain is a culinary crossroads, and dishes like this rich and flavorful "moruno" lamb demonstrate it so well. The flavor combination of onions and exotic spices with ground almonds and raisins will transport you to the Andalucia of long ago.

Danilo's Advice on How to Roast Meats
For many people, Easter means roasting a leg of lamb or a beef rib roast. Culinary Arts Guide Danilo Alfaro offers some tips on how to roast meats.

Ashley's Sweet Coconut Kugel
For Passover, this Sweet Coconut Kugel is a comforting dish that's both dairy-free and soy-free, and it's really good! Prepared with coconut milk, egg noodles, raisins, and dark brown sugar, this cardamom-scented casserole is welcome at any Passover celebration.

Molly's Asparagus With Vinaigrette and Egg
Calls for a bright drizzle of lemony vinaigrette and a sprinkle of chopped egg on those up-standing heralds of spring: asparagus.

Kyle's Triglia alla Mosaica
Reef Mullet Mosaica Style, with tomatoes (for the first night of Passover): this closely resembles Triglia alla Livornese, and it is likely no accident that Livorno had an extraordinarily rich Jewish community.

Kevin's Rack of Lamb with Caramelized Onions:
Spring in general and Easter in particular bring thoughts of lamb to mind. This rack of lamb for two is topped with sweet, caramelized onions. It's easy to prepare and can easily be scaled up to serve four to eight.

Karin's Advocaat
I call this Advocaat of the Devil, because once you start nipping at this sweet eggy nectar, you cannot resist the temptation to have more. The Dutch prefer their Advocaat thicker than you may be used to. So thick, in fact, that you eat it with a spoon. Enjoy as is, or over ice-cream, in desserts, pastries and cakes.

Linda's Roast Chicken
And for Passover, this juicy and flavorful roasted chicken is perfect. You can serve the juices as-is, or thicken them by boiling in a separate pan for a few minutes.

Stephanie's Chocolate Matzo
This is, by far, my most-requested Passover recipe -- and for good reason: It's so good! The sweet-salty combination tempts the palate in a way that appeals to everyone.

Giora's Passover Rolls
Not a fan of matzo? These Passover Rolls are the perfect replacement. Children especially prefer the soft texture of these rolls over that of hard matzot. Throughout the holiday week, fill these rolls with tuna, jelly, cheese, hot dogs, or sandwich meat to make a satisfying Pesach sandwich.

Easter Bread Recipes Across Eastern Europe
In Eastern Europe, the return of eggs to the diet after Lent is celebrated in braided and, sometimes, highly decorated yeast breads that are slightly sweet and often studded with raisins.
