Recipe For Zhug
BY SONYA SANFORD | NOVEMBER 14, 2017

JUMP TO RECIPE
I recently stumbled upon a Yemenite Jewish cookbook from the early ’60s called “Yemenite & Sabra Cookery” by Naomi and Shimon Tzabar. It’s the type of cookbook I especially love to discover; the kind that covers a rare topic and is unusually designed. This one has beautiful wood-block print images scattered throughout. The recipes are more like sketches of how to make something instead of being clear directives. On the first page of the book there’s a recipe for zhug (Yemenite hot sauce), and a few pages later there’s a recipe for a very simple white bean soup. I’ve been a longtime fan of topping white bean soup with homemade pesto or herb sauce. Creamy rich white beans are well complemented by fragrant earthy fresh herbs. As I skimmed through each page, these two recipes jumped out at me, calling to be combined.
Zhug (or skhug; pronounced s-kh-oo-g) is a classic Yemenite hot sauce. It is found throughout the Middle East, and was brought to and made popular in Israel by Yemenite Jews. It is used to add heat to many dishes, from falafel, to shwarma, to schnitzel, to sabich. There are countless recipes for zhug, but it is always made with a combination of hot green or red peppers and cilantro/coriander. Often, you’ll find it includes spices such as cardamom and caraway. Zhug is spicy, vibrant, and complexly flavored with the combination of these herbs and spices. It’s not your average hot sauce.

The Nosher celebrates the traditions and recipes that have brought Jews together for centuries. Donate today to keep The Nosher's stories and recipes accessible to all.
Note: Zhug will last up to two weeks in a well-sealed container, or it can be frozen for up to three months.
To make the zhug: To a food processor add the deseeded jalapenos, parsley, cilantro, garlic, cardamom, caraway and salt. Pulse until finely chopped. If you don’t have a food processor, you can also chop the ingredients finely by hand. Transfer the chopped mixture to a bowl. Add the oil and lemon juice, and stir until combined.
Serve topped zhug to your taste.
Notes
Zhug will last up to 2 weeks in a well-sealed container, or it can be frozen for up to 3 months.

Garden Vegetable Terrine ~ It's Thanksgiving Time!
If you want to lighten up your Thanksgiving fare, try this light and tasty terrine packed with delicious vegetables and herbs, from tomatoes and squash to eggplant and basil. Consider serving this elegant terrine on grilled garlic toast, topped with crumbled goat cheese or sliced alongside a fresh tomato sauce.
Garden Vegetable Terrine
Serves 10
Makes one terrine
Recipe Ingredients
1 teaspoon fine sea salt, divided, plus more for water
2 medium yellow squash, cut lengthwise into (1/4-inch-thick) slices
2 medium zucchini, cut lengthwise into (1/4-inch-thick) slices
4 red and yellow bell peppers, cored and quartered
2 large carrots, cut diagonally into (1/4-inch-thick) slices
1/2 medium eggplant (about 1/2 pound), cut into (1/3-inch-thick) rounds
1/4 cup extra-virgin olive oil
1/4 cup red wine vinegar
2 teaspoons Dijon mustard
1 1/2 teaspoon sugar
1 teaspoon finely chopped fresh thyme
1 small shallot, finely chopped
1/4 teaspoon ground black pepper
1 1/4 teaspoon unflavored powdered gelatin
1 cup low-sodium vegetable broth, divided
1/2 cup grape tomatoes, halved
8 large fresh basil leaves, divided
Preparation
Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil.
Boil vegetables 1 variety at a time, in the order listed, until softened and easily sliceable (squash and zucchini, 4 to 5 minutes. Peppers, 12 to 13 minutes. Carrots, 7 to 8 minutes. Eggplant, 3 to 4 minutes).
As vegetables are cooked, transfer to a paper towel-lined sheet tray and set aside.
In a 9 x 13-inch dish, whisk together oil, vinegar, mustard, sugar, thyme, shallot, 1/2 teaspoon of the salt and black pepper.
Add vegetables 1 at a time, coating well and arranging them in groups in the dish. Cover and set aside at room temperature for 1 hour.
Line an 8-inch loaf pan with plastic wrap, allowing extra to hang generously over the long sides.
Sprinkle gelatin over 1/4 cup of the broth in a medium bowl and set aside for 5 minutes.
Meanwhile, in a small pot, bring remaining 3/4 cup broth and remaining 1/2 teaspoon salt to a boil.
Pour hot broth over gelatin mixture and stir until dissolved.
Pour 1/4 cup of the broth mixture into the empty lined pan.
Arrange tomatoes in the bottom, cut sides down, and top with half of the basil.
In layers, arrange half of the squash, zucchini, peppers and carrots, allowing each vegetable to make a complete layer, and spooning some of the gelatin mixture generously over the top of each layer
Arrange all of the eggplant and remaining basil over the top to make 2 more layers and then repeat with remaining vegetables.
Pour any remaining broth mixture over the top and gently shake and tap the pan to distribute.
Fold over plastic wrap to cover terrine, and arrange in a shallow dish to catch any drips.
Add a few small, evenly distributed weights to the top to gently press down on the vegetables (a rectangular plate with 2 cans on top, for instance).
Chill until firm, about 8 hours or overnight.
Gently loosen edges of terrine with a small knife and then carefully invert onto a platter; remove and discard the plastic wrap.
Using a very sharp knife, cut into slices and serve with toasted garlic toast and top with crumbled goat cheese (feta would be wonderful here) if you like.

I made 2 recipes of fruitcake, this year. It was my first attempt & was the result of a discussion with folks I read to at an assisted living facility near my home, after sharing Truman Capote's "A Christmas Memory." Some had never tried fruitcake & some claimed to dislike it. Of the two recipes, this one was the better. It was a baked recipe. The other used a base of graham cracker crumbs & was no-bake. My mom made a similar one, each year at Christmas! Since folks have been kind enough to view this page more than 5, 000 times, I've included the recipe for the baked fruitcake, which was the one that came out tasting better. Enjoy! www.kingarthurflour.com/recipes/everyones-favorite-fruitc...
