I love dates! When I had gestational diabetes, they did not affect my blood sugar in any negative way, and that really sold me on them.
We eat dates fairly simply around here. There’s a recipe in the Ambitious Kitchen cookbook for brownie date balls that I make every week . I like all the muffins on Pinch of Yum that use them, too.
Thanks for the roundup and inspiration! I am eyeing that shake.
That blood sugar benefit was a newer learning for me, but it’s very cool! Thanks so much the additional recipe inspiration- I will be making those brownie balls asap! 😊
Love this list, esp the smoothie! Kerry, when you say dates, the first thing that will come to an Indian's mind is a sweet and sour date and tamarind chutney. It is a must-have condiment on chaat, THE street food that is the heartbeat of most Indians.
Thanks Annada! Oh my goodness, that smoothie (with the tangy buttermilk) is so tasty! I have long been wanting to try chaat—do you have a recipe that you’d recommend? And I would definitely make that date tamarind chutney, which also sounds perfect.
Dates!!! I visited a date farm in Coachella earlier this year and wow it was amazing. And the dates were *chef’s kiss* delish! I’m so intrigued by the chicken dish - that is going on my to-make list. It was such a pleasure to talk with you on the podcast! I so enjoyed our chat 💞
How cool! I’d LOVE to go to Coachella to see a date farm! The whole growing and harvesting process sounds fascinating, and I can only imagine how delicious those freshly picked dates must taste!! Loved talking with you too—I had so much fun! And you and Rebecca were great last time. I’m excited to make all of your tacos and margs! :)

Hi Kerry, here's a chaat recipe one of particular chaat called Panipuri

This chaat contains the tamarind chutney, but I will send you the recipe for dates & tamarind chutney.
Thank you so much!!
Looks amazing, I will try!

Ok next time you are in SoCal, let’s go!
Yes!!
I buy my plump , moist dates at the Armenian and found that they're worth the spend! Love the use in savory dishes here!
Ooh, they sound wonderful! The savory recipes are my favorites—love the contrast!
I love my dates and butter or dates and Brie. But now I am going to have to try some of these recipes.
I love dates and Brie! Have not tried with butter yet, but I want to.
It’s so good. Add a sprinkle of sea salt 😊
Yum! That sounds perfect!
These look great. I love bacon-wrapped dates and now I'm eager to try the version here. And some others!
Thanks, I hope you enjoy! The prosciutto-wrapped Manchego dates are special. ☺️
These all sound great! Just added the Hot Date cookbook to my wish list!
Thanks, every recipe is wonderful! And Hot Date has quickly become one of my favorite cookbooks—the recipes are all so interesting and delicious.
