Green Shakshuka

Shakshuka is a classic North African dish. It can be eaten at any time of day as it has breakfast, lunch, and dinner ingredients. The sauce is made from tomatoes, spicy peppers, and poached eggs. Green shakshuka is different because it contains Swiss chard and dill. These veggies create that bright green color.

Persian Rice Tahdig

Tahdig features a crunchy bottom and layers of basmati rice, yogurt, and butter. The spices make this recipe a Persian classic. Cinnamon, orange zest, and saffron feature heavily throughout the dish.

Salted Halvah Chocolate Chip Cookies

Classic chocolate chip cookies are one of those recipes every baker needs. Eden puts a twist on the classic chocolate chip cookie by swapping out the chocolate chips. She incorporated halvah instead and it’s absolutely amazing. Halvah is made from tahini and sugar and comes in many different flavors.

Ingredients:

• 9oz+3 1/2 oz of softened unsalted butter
• 1/3 cup+7 oz of powdered sugar
• 1 cup of flour
• 1 oz of corn starch 
• 1/2 teaspoon of vanilla extract
• 8 oz of raspberry jam, homemade or store-bought 

Instructions:

1. Use parchment paper to line 3 cookie sheets, and draw 8 circles on each using a 2-inch cookie cutter so you can pipe evenly. 
2. With an electric or stand mixer, beat 1/3 cup of powdered sugar and 9 oz of butter together until pale and fluffy. Use a fine-mesh sieve to sift in the flour and cornstarch and continue to mix until well combined.
3. Place the dough into a piping bag fitted with a star tip, and pipe the cookies onto the parchment paper. 
4. Bake at 375 F for 13-15 minutes. You don’t want them golden brown. 
5. With an electric hand mixer, whisk together the rest of the powdered sugar and butter with the vanilla extract to make the buttercream. 
6. Have the cookies cool completely before assembling. Pipe or smear on the buttercream, then a layer of jam, sandwich with another cookie, and enjoy!
