Huevos Haminados- Jewish Eggs

by in Uncategorized

Popular in Jewish communities throughout the Mediterranean and Middle East, these beautifully marbled rich maroon or brown eggs get their soft texture from the slow cooking process. The addition of onion skins to the liquid are absorbed by the porous shells, which cause the coloration.

Huevos Haminados are traditionally served at the Passover Seders of Calcutta, Turkey, Greece, Morocco and Tunisia, among others. They can also be slowly cooked overnight in a crockpot for Shabbat. The name reflects the eggs’ origin in Medieval Spain. — posted by Sephardi Kitchen

Restaurant Sent Sovi’s Gazpacho

by in Uncategorized

Sent Sovi is a remarkable restaurant is Saratoga, CA, at the foot of the Santa Cruz Mountains. Josiah Stone, the chef/owner recently had an Heirloom Tomato Tasting Menu (every dish had tomatoes….Lemon Boy tomato Bellinis anyone? YUM!) and was also featured on a local show making this gazpacho. We had it at the restaurant along with several other dishes I am going to try to reproduce, and it was one of the best gazpachos I’ve ever had, even though I usually prefer mine chunkier. His wife came out and talked with us for about half an hour after dinner, and believe me, if you can get there, GO!!! In the meantime, I’m enjoying this again! (And trying to figure out that incredible prawn dish……)
