BABY MOSES IN A BASKET

Steps:

• Slit the dates lengthwise and remove the pits.
• Grind almonds in food processor until a powder consistency.
• With machine running, add sugar, vanilla, rose water / almond extract and 1 tsp hot water.
• Mixture should begin to come together in a ball (if not, continue slowly adding hot water, being careful not to add too much or consistency will be too soft).
• For each Moses, make a small ball for the head and an oval piece for the body.
• Roll the body in the crushed pistachio nuts and attach body to head.
• Put Moses in a date and press the date to secure him.
• Gently pinch top and bottom of date to make basket shape, if necessary.
• Using whole clove, pierce 2 holes in the head.
• Place coriander seed or mustard seed in holes to represent Moses' eyes.

ROASTED BABY BEET AND BABY CARROT SALAD WITH A SHERRY WALNUT VINAIGRETTE

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F.
• In a small ovenproof casserole or roasting pan place the beets with 1 tablespoon of the olive oil, 1/4 teaspoon of the salt and 1/4 teaspoon of the pepper. Toss to coat well and push to 1 side of the pan. In a piece of foil, place the carrots with 1 tablespoon of the olive oil, 1/4 teaspoon of the salt and 1/4 teaspoon of the pepper. Toss to coat well. Wrap the foil tightly and place alongside the beets in the roasting pan. Transfer to the oven and bake, stirring occasionally, until the beets are crisp-tender, about 45 minutes. The carrots may be done earlier, so check occasionally. Remove the beets from the oven and allow to cool slightly. Toss with the tarragon and chives and set aside to cool to room temperature.
• In a mixing bowl combine the sherry vinegar, honey, remaining salt, and remaining pepper and whisk to combine. While continuing to whisk, add the remaining 1/4 cup of olive oil and the walnut oil in a thin, steady stream, until smooth and emulsified.
• Place the lettuce in a salad bowl and add the beets, walnuts, and crumbled goat cheese. Drizzle some of the vinaigrette over the salad, to taste, and toss to thoroughly combine. Serve immediately, drizzled with additional vinaigrette, if desired.

BABY LEAF SALAD WITH BACON

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F.
• Lay the bacon on a baking sheet, and bake for 20 to 25 minutes, or until crisp. Dry on paper towels and large dice.
• For the dressing, place the egg yolk, mustard, garlic, lemon juice, salt, and pepper into the bowl of a food processor fitted with steel blade. Process until smooth. With the food processor running, slowly pour the olive oil through the feed tube (as though you were making mayonnaise) and process until thick. Add 1/2 cup grated Parmesan and pulse 3 times.
• Toss the lettuce with enough dressing to moisten well. Divide the lettuce among 4 plates. With a very sharp knife or a vegetable peeler, shave the Parmesan into large shards and arrange them on the lettuce. Sprinkle the diced bacon over the salad and serve.
