This week I’m participating in #WeekdaySupper, where contributors share easy meal ideas to help you get dinner on the table. As soon as the snow melts here, and sometimes when it’s still flying, our grill is on overdrive. Most everyone loves grilled burgers, but I like to mix that up. This recipe combines the Moroccan [...]
Moroccan salads are so important to the dinner table. One of the easiest, is this tomato and onion salad. It’s always on the table if there is fish being served and you’re likely to find it in regular rotation with many other meals as well. It may become a new favorite after you give it [...]
I love scouring the condiment aisle at any market I find myself in. When traveling it’s one of the most interesting aisles to explore. You can learn so much about people and their food culture. I never knew mayonnaise was so easy to make! As part of my preparation to move to Morocco, I’ve been [...]
The tajine is a Moroccan slow-cooker. It’s an ancient cooking pot originally used by the indigenous Berbers of North Africa. It is not only the word used to describe the cooking vessel but the meal contained inside. Braniya happens to be one of MarocBaba’s favorite meals, though it was only this year that he “remembered.” [...]
Morocco isn’t known for it’s coffee culture but I’ve found the “coffee culture” inside of many Moroccan homes to be my favorite part of the day. Arabica coffee sometimes mixed with spices and sometimes alone is brewed thick and served with plenty of sweet, whole milk. In honor of Mother’s Day in the United States [...]
Are you ready for another great Twitter party with Saffron Road? I know I am! Last fall we had a great time sharing fall recipes and talking about Saffron Road’s crunchy chickpeas. This month I’m hosting another party where the topic is “winter wrap-up”! Saffron Road recently launched a line of frozen chapatti wraps and [...]
When I was growing up I never ate an artichoke. Never. I don’t even know if artichokes were in grocery stores where I lived, but if they were my mom certainly wasn’t buying them. When I began to cook Moroccan food artichokes popped up from time to time. They’re not as common in Moroccan dishes [...]
If you’re in the United States then you would have to be living under a rock to not know Thanksgiving is next week. If you’re not aware of this food heavy holiday then you’re missing out. Through the following week most of my posts will be revolving around Thanksgiving food and the holiday itself. There [...]
Summer is finally here! We’ve managed to have several weeks of temperatures in the 70′s so I think it’s safe to say now. A little over a week ago we embarked on a new journey. MarocBaba has always had stomach problems from the time he was a small child. If you know anything about Moroccan [...]
I don’t even want to say that it’s spring yet because frankly it snowed yesterday. As I woke up and opened our blinds I saw swirling, whirling flakes of white snow coming down. At the end of April there is nothing more depressing than that sight. This year we have bought into a CSA (community-supported [...]
Vegetables, legumes, khdra whatever you call them, members of this much needed food group are prominent in Moroccan cuisine. Aside from Asian diets, the Moroccan diet may offer the most options for vegetarians, or anyone looking to increase vegetables in their diet. Whereas often we find vegetables as a side dish in American cuisine, they [...]
