Shabbat Menu – Virtual Sheva Brachot
To light the eternal flame, the children of Israel are commanded to bring pure oil of olives crushed for lighting. I use olive oil in most everything. The diversity of flavors – from herbal to earthy can bring out the best of breads, salads, vegetables, fish, poultry and even steaks. Heart healthy and a staple of the Mediterranean diet, olive oil is a precious part of our Biblical tradition and our culinary heritage. This week we are highlighting a menu that shows many ways to use the amazing olive and its flavorful oil.
I also want to wish a Mazal Tov to Ali from Alibabka.com and Matan on their recent marriage. This Shabbat Menu is a little bit fancy, in honor of their wedding. The Kosher Connection is hosting a Virtual Sheva Brachot, see what everyone else is making for Ali below.













If that is your menu, can I come for the meal?
This is an outstanding menu Tamar. So festive and yet not fussy. I actually made zatar and olive challah this morning! Everything looks so absolutely gorgeous and festive looking, fit for a wedding. Love the look of the green beans. I will make this recipe (though I can’t use walnuts, will use almonds or cashews instead) and the chicken breasts are a must. Just a lovely lovely menu.
What a beautiful looking menu! It all looks amazing but I have to admit I am partial to the olive oil mousse. I love the way olive oil and chocolate work together.
i want to make that zaatar and olive challah this shabbat!
Are you or did you cook all of this? Tell us when to come over, these recipes look fantastic! Our mouths are watering! Thank you so much!
LOL, not today, but maybe soon.
