I saw the reply of Vered Guttman Shavuot cheese dishes. Can you email me the recipes?
May I have a written copy of three of the four recipes? I’m interested in the feta and eggplant burekas pie, the seven species salad, and the no-bake cheesecake. My name and email appear below (at least on the page where I’m inputting this message). Thank you!
Feta cheeee websites and salads
For burekas shown to us by Verde, she charred her eggplant on an open fire gas stove. I have an electric stove, so I don’t have an open fire. What is the other way of charring the eggplant?
