Salty, sweet, spicy, crunchy… There isn’t a note these nuts don’t hit. They’re even tart thanks to the use of sumac. The deep-red powder is made from ground-up sumac fruit and has a tangy, lemony flavour. Letting the nuts, spices (including cumin and cayenne) and honey mingle in the pan for a minute helps create an even coating so no nut is left out.

Eggplant and Tomato Zaalouk Salad
Inspired by Moroccan zaalouk, this cooked eggplant and tomato salad differs from the better-known baba ghanouj with its zingy colour and spicy punch courtesy of paprika, harissa, cumin and lemon. Don’t be afraid to let the eggplant brown—that’s what makes it so sweet and meltingly tender. Top this salad with mint oil to instantly go gourmet.

Hummus with Pine Nuts
This simple recipe uses ingredients you likely have on hand. The je ne sais quoi that makes this hummus so creamy and addictive is twofold: First, we poach the garlic for seven minutes before puréeing it and adding it to our chickpea mix, which takes away its bite but none of its flavour. Second, we pass the hummus through a sieve, ensuring the smoothest of textures.

Israeli Couscous Salad
There are countless variations on this country’s national salad staple. Salad in Israel is an important part of every meal, and despite the endless ingredient combinations, chopping techniques, bright garnishes and final touches, some things do remain definitive: It’s always made with raw vegetables (and usually includes cucumber, tomato and onion), is served at room temperature, and tastes best when eaten as soon as it’s made (so toss it together right before you tuck in!). We gave ours a two-in-one twist: In addition to the mixture of juicy tomato, cool cucumber, bell pepper, raw red onion, cilantro, mint, lemon and oil, we added Israeli couscous and pine nuts, boosting it into satisfying main-course territory.
