Traditional Ashkenazi Cholent

The quintessential Shabbat lunch. Cholent is a slow-cooked stew of beef, beans, barley, potatoes, onions, and schmaltz that cooks gently overnight, developing extraordinary depth of flavor without constant attention. This version stays true to traditional Eastern European Jewish cooking, favoring clean beef flavor over excessive seasoning.

Vegetarian Tom Kha

A plant-based take on the Thai coconut-galangal soup: the same fragrant coconut, lemongrass, galangal, and kaffir lime broth, built with tofu, mushrooms, and mixed vegetables in place of chicken, and seasoned with soy in place of fish sauce. Naturally vegan. Pairs well with an off-dry Riesling, whose light sweetness balances the chili and lime.
