My husband teases me that I casually mentioned to him once while we were dating, “Oh, by the way. I don’t know how to cook.” Being that my mother-in-law is a fantastic cook, he simply responded, “Oh.” and politely tried to disguise his concern.
When I was first married and went with my husband to his brother and sister in law for Shabbos, she made this delicious tomato dip to put on the challah, potato kugel and basically everything. My husband asked me to please get the recipe and since then we have been…
