"From: "Whole Grains Every Day, Every Way" by Lorna Sass. Adapted from a Jewish dessert.

"The Dr. Shakshoukah restaurant must be one of the most famous little places in all of Jaffa, quite possibly Israel, quite possibly the Middle East.

"This is a classic Israeli/Sephardic dish. In hebrew Le'Shakshek means "to shake," after you see the finished product you'll understand why it is named this. This is a very easy dish to make and is extremely good for a college student's budget. This is a classic food that always reminds me of Israel.
