This recipe without photos appears at the end of the recipe. This recipe first appeared in More Insane in the Brine: The Second Official Cookbook , using my homemade olives. I have recently made a few of the recipes from the book available here, as well as from the first […]

Kefir Cheese (or Yogurt) Tandoori Wings
Tandoori is both a cooking style and method (cooking in a tandoor). This recipe doesn’t require a tandoor, but simply your favorite medium for cooking wings, be it your grill, oven, smoker, air fryer, or what have you. Although you may be used to tandoori chicken being bright red, this […]
Shrimp Ceviche with Peach (Paleo compliant)
The term “ceviche” first appeared in writing in an 1820 Peruvian song. I have always assumed the term came originally from Spanish but the more I researched, the more I found the word “ceviche” and the origins of this dish are shrouded in mystery. It’s possible the word came from […]
Gastritis/GERD-Friendly Ahi Tuna Poke Bowl
Poke Bowls have become really popular over the last few years, and for good reason! They’re nutritious, delicious, and relatively easy to assemble. But you probably haven’t been part of the craze if you have gastritis, GERD, or other stomach inflammation. This is because Poke tends to have lots of […]
Caraway-Dill Cured & Smoked Trout (Easy & Delicious)
Do you love smoked fish like I do? I probably love it more than smoked meats and jerky, and that’s saying a lot. Although it’s not too hard to find trout, it is not common at all to find in large or chain supermarkets (in my experience). I can find […]
Lemon-Garlic-Dill Browned Butter Salmon

The featured photos are Fulton Fish Market’s center cut salmon portions. Center cut portions are thick and uniform […]
Mind-Blowing, Gastritis-Friendly Thai Chicken Satay with Peanut Dipping Sauce
Leading up to and start the gastritis diet, I lamented all my favorite foods I’d be missing. I pictured meal after meal of bland, boring looking dishes that wouldn’t satisfy my need for unique and bold flavor. And in the beginning, my meals really were quite tame. As time passed […]
Steak (Beef) Tartare
Steak tartare, also referred to as Beef Tartare, may not be on people’s radar like a good steak off the grill, but it’s so tasty, unique, and sensuous (the way sushi can be) that it will instantly be the talking point at your table. Or countertop, since this is typically […]
Pomegranate – Apple Cider Braised Brisket
Although here in the South people normally identify brisket as a barbecue food, being raised by Jewish Yankees reversed my experience. Growing up I always had that sweet, juicy braised brisket at the holidays. I once stayed at a friend’s house and was told we’d be eating brisket, I assumed […]
How to Make Smoked Whitefish Salad & Whitefish Spread
Growing up with my New-York born Jewish parents, weekend bagel brunch was a given, and I have such fond memories of us sitting around the table, laughing, my father reading the paper and me reading the Sunday funnies, surrounded by all the classics: bagels, cream cheese, lox or smoked salmon, […]
