STARTER:    Skillet Fish Pie

This pie is one of those rare recipes that tastes like it came from the oven while being cooked entirely on the stovetop. It is an excellent choice for hot summer days, camping with a gas burner, vacation rentals, or any time you want a homemade meal without heating the entire kitchen. I also like that the batter is neutral enough to work with almost any savory filling, making it a recipe you'll come back to again and again.

SOUP:    Kharcho (Georgian Beef & Rice Soup)

Kharcho is one of the most famous Georgian soups, known for its rich beef broth, warming spices, herbs, garlic, and balanced heat. Traditional kharcho is deeply aromatic and hearty, with slow-cooked broth forming the foundation of the dish. The combination of tomatoes, cilantro, garlic, and khmeli suneli creates its unmistakable flavor.

DESSERT:    Pirozhki with apples

Life is full of tough decisions, like choosing between a juicy apple and a slice of apple pie – but why not have both and call it balanced fruitrition!

NEW RECIPE

   Lavender Syrup

Lavender syrup has long been made in Provence, France, where fields of fragrant lavender bloom every summer. This homemade version uses freshly harvested culinary lavender blossoms to create a delicate floral syrup that pairs beautifully with coffee, tea, lemonade, sparkling water, cocktails, and desserts. The flavor is subtle and elegant—never overpowering—when steeped for the proper amount of time.

   Spinach Salad with Tangerines and Pomegranate Seeds

   Pomegranate seeds — or arils — have been symbols of fertility, prosperity, and eternal life for thousands of years. In ancient Persia and Greece, the pomegranate was considered a sacred fruit connected to goddesses like Persephone and Aphrodite. Today, it’s still a sign of good luck and renewal in many cultures — and nutrition-wise, it’s packed with antioxidants that support heart health and glowing skin.
