Shabbat Menu- Farm-Fresh Recipes from the Skill'it Competition

Last week we launched episode 2 of Skill’it!

The challenge was to create a composed entrée that highlights seasonal produce. The local fresh produce was brought by Farmer John, an organic farmer/owner of Rio Gozo Farm in California.

The contestants did a fantastic job and created delicious dishes. We are privileged enough to get the full recipes to all those mouth-watering dishes.

Shabbat Shalom!

Pasta with Veal Bolognese by Moshe Nafisi

This pasta bolognese is a little lighter than most, prepared with ground veal. Sophisticated flavors, yet easy enough to prepare on a weeknight.

Rosemary Lamb Chops by Moshe Bloch

A simple, succulent, and perfectly seared rack of lamb.

Mock Scallops with Sesame Chili Dressing by Moshe Bloch

Vegan, kosher scallops!? Yes, and yes. Hearts of palm stars in this simple pan-seared appetizer. The sesame chili dressing takes the dish up a notch or three.
