Take the hassle out of cooking and add garlic, sauteed onions, basil, cilantro and more.

Fresh flavor without the time and effort!

People assume that because we work at kosher.com it means that we all love cooking elaborate meals all the time. We hate to burst your bubble, but sometimes we just aren’t in the mood to cook- and that goes for Shabbat too.

After a long week of cooking dinners, come Shabbat and we’re completely uninspired. On those weeks, we just want to make the classics – recipes that call for familiar ingredients, take little effort, and are quick to prepare, so we can finish with the cooking and get right to “resting” and enjoying our family.

Are you with us? If the answer is yes, then this roundup is for you.

To make these recipes even easier, try using Gefen frozen garlic, dill, parsley and ginger cubes. They add lots of flavor without any grating, peeling or chopping. (They’re one of our favorite shortcuts!)
