Cooking Tips : No Need For a Special Diet to Use Ingredient Substitutes
By the way. If this doesn't convince you to keep a ready supply of applesauce and tofu on hand, nothing will! ☺
Za’atar is a spice mix or a spice blend used in Arab and Israeli cuisines. It is used in recipes the same way Westerners use salt.
Sure many recipes are tradition! But if you won’t eat a dish because of that one vegetable that you just don’t like, then go ahead and substitute the veggie for the one you do like! It’s OK. That’s not illegal!

Food Blog Spotlight: Honey Chai Cake Recipe | Arabic Food (Reblog)
Image credit: Arabic Food I, photo by Victor Maia, found at Flickr.com
Connecting the dots.
Several months back, began using the Google+ collections feature to maintain a collection of posts and links related to World Cuisine. In the process, stumbled across the Arabic Food Recipes blog. My husband and kids are turned on to chai tea. Even though I am a coffee fiend, having been encouraged by them to try a cup, it's very easy to understand why they are chai tea lovers. At the aforementioned food blog found a cake recipe and thought to myself:
- 'Chai tea is delicious. Why not chai cake?'
Here is another thing to note about this blog. When many of us are enjoying the holiday season, we say "Happy Holidays" to others. Why? It's not to be anti-Christmas. America is a diverse nation. Some folks do not celebrate Christmas. But they do celebrate a holiday! This blog has holiday recipes for Christmas, EID, and Ramadan. Cool huh?
