I always look forward to the first farmers markets of the season because there's a very small window when rhubarb is available. And in my book, it's not spring/early summer here in Illinois until a warm, melting, sweet, juicy strawberry-rhubarb crisp hits the table.

My Dad's side of the family is Jewish, and Passover has always been one of my favorite holidays. As a kid, I loved all of the special foods we ate during the Seder; how fun it was to dip the parsley into the salt water, taste the red wine in the Charoset and my personal favorite - the hardboiled eggs. I was always hungry in anticipation of the main meal, so I would load up on the eggs and matzo crackers, taking seconds and thirds. But the BEST part? Dessert, of course. And not just any dessert; it had to be this matzo toffee - a.k.a. matzo crack.  |
