Sinigang is a Filipino soup cooked with pork. Serve with rice and for additional sauce, use soy or fish sauce. If you want to, you can add what Filipinos call gabi gabi, which is a small taro root. When peeled they look like potatoes. You can add five to six of them when you add the water and make sure they are cooked through. Take them out when they are cooked because they can get too soft.

Naked Eggs Benedict
These naked eggs Benedict are a stripped-down version that involves no poaching of eggs, and they are not covered in heavy Hollandaise sauce, but are sauced with a lighter lemon butter sauce. And yet, the taste is virtually identical to classic eggs Benedict.
Great-Grandmother Bubbie's Hamantaschen
Hamantaschen are fruit-filled cookies traditionally served during the Jewish holiday Purim. They are put in gift baskets and given to all one's friends. We always make extra, so there are plenty for us, too! This recipe includes the original filling from my great-grandmother's Polish recipe, but for a shortcut, you can substitute any flavor of jam.
