Diane's No-Cook Red Hamburger Relish
This is my copycat recipe for Bick's classic hamburger relish, which used to be my go-to condiment of choice to create a tasty burger. Unfortunately, the red relish is no longer available. However, I find my version to be remarkably similar to the original and hope you agree... Enjoy!
Authentic Mandelbrot
I grew up in a Jewish neighborhood where a traditional snack was Mandelbrot. I so enjoyed visiting my friends as these homey cookies came fresh out of the oven with the most fantastic aroma. Luckily for me, one of the mothers shared this recipe and I've cherished and enjoyed it ever since.
Spicy Quince and Cranberry Chutney
This is a much more lively alternative to plain cranberry sauce and is one of my very favorites. I buy the quinces (membrillos) at a local Mexican grocery store. It is so worth the extra effort!
