TRAVELS WITH TUTKO - MOROCCO

Back in the day, Sharon Tutko was an adventure-seeking young woman with chef knives eager to experience the world. Most of those things still ring true as she shares the significant food that is still part of her life in this monthly series. Sharon met her in-laws for the first time on a trip through the coast of Spain and Morocco, and tells of some memorable moments including a luxurious "peasant-style" luncheon sitting cross-legged on the floor. Enjoy Moroccan bissara - split pea soup with grilled fluffy pita, b'stillah - a flavorful chicken and ground almond phyllo pie scented with saffron and ginger and turmeric, plus fresh orange segments in minted-orange blossom water served with a simple and divine cardamom-scented rice pudding. #weekday
