The very first time I tried Marak Kubbeh Adom coincided with my very first time making it. Fair to say, I fell in love with it. It's the ultimate cold weather comfort food. Marak Kubbeh Adom is a Kurdish specialty, semolina dumplings filled with fragrantly spiced beef or lamb and simmered in a crimson red beetroot broth. To make this recipe vegetarian/vegan simply replace the meat with mushrooms.

This Miso Stracciatella Ice Cream is a very unorthodox version of the gem that is Italian Stracciatella Ice Cream, and you don't need an ice cream maker to make it.
