There are those recipes that simmer on the stove for hours, and those other quick recipes where boiled eggs are mashed over some bread and rolled up on the go, and then there are those in-between recipes which taste like a homey meal, but are much quicker than a four hour roast.

2084. Tahini Honey Greek Yogurt
Apparently this health bomb greek yogurt topped with tahini, honey, and walnut is a popular dessert in Greece. It's fascinating to see how old traditions across various cultures actually fed the body and mind, then in comes America with its bastardized Nerds and Twizzlers and retards every good thing, especially the body and mind.

2080. Seeds Dates and Tahini Power Mix
Thinking about nutritional supplements and delving into their manufacturing process, one concludes that in order to isolate the mineral or vitamin, a multistep process involving extreme chemical extraction methods is applied. Bottomline, how healthy is the pharmaceutical supplement we are popping and swallowing for convenience to support and fuel our bodies? Long story short, get your supplements from real food whenever possible and not from pharmacy packages.

2079. Saj Bread Zaatar Cheese Boats
Zaatar, cheese, and tomato on some form of bread is a classic. This recipe just presents it differently. It has become such a favorite that I bulk freeze them and bake as needed throughout the week.

2076. Courgette Gratin
As simple as this courgette gratin is, there is the simple matter of navigating the undesirable effect of the vegetable retaining too much water and risking ruining the experience.

2073. Iraqi Haraq Isbao in Onion and Broth
The third and last version of Iraqi Haraq Isbao which can be vegetarian or full on carnivore, and is more known to be "poor family" food that's cheap yet fills the bellies and warms the soul is this meat broth and onion one. This comes after the tangy tamarind version and the tomato curry one.

2072. Iraqi Haraq Isbao in Tomato Curry
Iraqi Haraq Isbao can be vegetarian or full on carnivore, and is more known to be "poor family" food that's cheap yet fills the bellies and warms the soul. Last time I posted a tamarind version, today's is the tomato curry one, very similar in flavor to a chicken tashreeb.

2071. Iraqi Haraq Isbao in Tamarind
The Syrian Haraq Isbao (translates to burnt fingers from the eagerness to eat the hot dish) is more famous than the Iraqi versions. It can be vegetarian or full on carnivore, and is more known to be "poor family" food that's cheap yet fills the bellies and warms the soul.

2070. Chicken Feet Broth
I've tried bone broth, the "express" 6-hour version, all the way to the 24-hour one. I've added the splash of vinegar, with and without aromatics, and I've something gotten the jiggly jelly, and sometimes not. I was not expecting the colossal success of the jiggly collagen jelly from chicken feet.

2069. Baked Eggs Toast in Cream
You can go simple with this egg toast in cream, or amp up the flavor by infusing the cream with aromatics.

2067. Seared Dates Rice Pudding Custard
Yes, I just posted a seared date rice pudding, and yes, this is another seared date rice pudding, but give it a chance. This version is studied to feed your soul and body. How? I'll tell you.
