In this week’s parsha, Egypt‘s destruction is complete. The plague of locusts decimates the land, followed by darkness and the death of the firstborn. The Children of Israel are granted their freedom and begin their long journey to the Promised Land. In Egypt, the darkness was so thick and unrelenting the Egyptians were immobilized. For our Shabbat menu we are going to introduce black grains, so dark and delicious no one is going to want to get out of their seat either – until after dessert!

Start your meal with these crispy quinoa fritters. I always make extra quinoa just so that I can turn them into cakes. They make a perfect first course and great hot or cold. They reheat well too.
