Burnt Eggplant & Israeli Couscous Soup Recipe

How to Prepare a Delicious Middle Eastern Soup My daughter and her friends prepared this recipe for Burnt Eggplant and Israeli Couscous recipe many times durning the semester they lived at our Salt Lake City home because of Covid. We purchased the house to retire in but were still living in Philadelphia getting our house ready to sell so we let her and her friends stay there. It worked out great for them and we appreciated having someone living in the house. Maddie's three friends were vegetarian's so once they found a recipe they really enjoyed, they would make it often. Maddie is still living with us until she finds her full time job and likes to make dinner for us once a week and this is a recipe she knows well. This recipe can be served as either a side dish or in our...

A Dumpling Nerd Takes Us Inside His Freezer

Frozen dumplings are my weeknight heroes. They are one of the most versatile ingredients I cook from my freezer, bringing maximum pleasure with minimal effort. Since high-quality dumplings (and there are a lot of them) are already stuffed with perfectly seasoned meat and vegetables, I don’t have to do as much to turn them into an impressive centerpiece. I can simmer pork and chive dumplings in broth to whip up a hearty soup in under 15 minutes, or I can panfry them with soy-sauce-seasoned eggs to make a quick donburi over rice. I can even jazz up my quesadillas by mixing chopped, steamed meaty dumplings into the mozzarella and pepper jack cheese.  I’ve never met a dumpling I didn’t like. There’s wrinkly kimchi mandu from Korea; flavorful, brothy...

“I create pieces that are built on a foundation of high quality, not just physical quality but a high quality of thoughts and ideas”: Shahab Durazi On Staying True To His Philosophy

Text by Shirin Mehta, with inputs from Akanksha Pandey. Photographs by Asad Sheikh. Sharp tailoring (he is fabled for drafting every pattern himself, his construction skills deemed “legendary”) juxtaposed with flowing lines. An almost manic attention to detail. Embroideries that are somehow almost cerebral. (A sari with monotone embroidery in its geometric magnificence recalled a map of the constellations to my mind and has stayed with me over decades). After 12 years of resounding silence, Mumbai’s quiet couturier — sometimes called the “Armani of India” — Shahab Durazi and his 34-year-old eponymous label have returned to the ramp with all this and more, in a collection that was par...
