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 [...]
This year our family decided to sign up for a CSA share. If you’ve never heard of a CSA let me give you a few details about it. CSA stands for Community Supported Agriculture. Individuals or families buy a share (or a half share) in the CSA to help the farmer cover the production costs [...]
We’re working really hard to cut down our meat consumption for a few reasons. One reason is that we buy free range organic meat and/or halal meat and it’s a bit pricier than your run of the mill meat. We also are very aware that on a whole, society, especially in the US, eats way [...]
This salad might win for the oddest “salad” in the books, although I’m willing to bet that a jello “salad” might be a tough contender in that category. The first time this was served to me I know I gave it buggy eyes, like “who the heck would think potato, rice and carrot made a [...]
I am always looking to bring new recipes online that aren’t all over the place. Last week we watched Jamie Oliver’s Food Escapes: Marrakech on Cooking Channel. It brought back a flood of memories and ideas but also made me a bit sad. He messed with every traditional Marrakechi dish and made it into something [...]
Have you heard of the Bombies? Every year Morocco Blogs hosts the bombies for the best blogs in, about or relating to Morocco. I was nominated for best Moroccan food blog and couldn’t be more excited! Voting is open for a month and it would mean a lot to me if you would stop [...]
Don’t let this picture fool you (it’s pretty low quality!) These were some of the best french fries I’ve made in a long time. It’s so worth the extra time to actually make them from real potatoes than frozen. You can easily change the spices used in this to create “asian” fries “southwestern” fries or [...]
