Roasted Garlic Soup with Swiss Cheese and Prosciutto

Tue, 22 Apr 2003 20:12:10 -0400

Garlic mellows considerably when it's roasted, so don't be alarmed by the large quantity of it. This soup is delicious and can be served as a first course for dinner or as a main dish for dinner or lunch with the addition of some realy great chewy bread. Enjoy! -- posted by Normaone

Hungarian Potato and Egg Casserole

Tue, 13 May 2003 20:01:23 -0400

This is another one of those comfort foods that takes me back to my Hungarian father. For Passover, use matzah meal instead of bread crumbs. I actually make it with matzah meal all year round. -- posted by Mirj

Beef Brisket with Burgundy-Orange Sauce

Tue, 20 May 2003 20:00:50 -0400

This is the piece of meat you want to make when you want your guests to ooooooh and aaaaaah when you serve it. They'll make even more obscene noises when they start eating. Prep time allows for the meat and sauce to cool. -- posted by Mirj

Lacy Potato Kugel

Fri, 12 Sep 2003 20:04:59 -0400

I have been eating potato kugel all my life - take it from me, this one is the absolute best. It's from the "Kosher Palette Cookbook" it is crispy on the outside and creamy and, well, 'lacy' on the inside. It freezes very well so I usually double the recipe. Enjoy! -- posted by Kishka

Kuure-ed Chicken (A Yooper-Inspired Recipe)

Fri, 10 Oct 2003 20:00:01 -0400

A lot of you don't know it, but Yooper and I are diet buddies. We were chatting on the phone one Friday morning and he told me how he admired my talent of just "coming up" with a recipe off the top of my head. That morning, with Yoop's words echoing in my head, I created this curried chicken recipe. And guess what, Yooper? It's legal for Somersizing. Non-Sommersizers can serve this with some Basmati rice. Mark, I return the compliment by naming this dish after you! Prep time includes marinating, but cook time does not include crockpot option. -- posted by Mirj

Chocolate Babka

Wed, 22 Oct 2003 20:00:34 -0400

This yeast bread tastes heavenly and looks fantastic. Everyone will wonder how you got the chocolate filling into such an elaborate pattern. But the best part is how great a slice tastes when warmed in the microwave. Recipe makes three loaves so you can give one as a gift, freeze one for later baking and still have one to eat now. Rising and resting times are included in cook time. -- posted by sugarpea

Boles Family Butternut Squash Casserole

Sun, 07 Dec 2003 20:01:11 -0500

The best darn butternut squash casserole there is. Your family will melt when they put this warm, sweet casserole in their mouths. It's so good, they'll want it for dessert! This recipe has been in our family for years - passed down from generation to generation. I hope you enjoy it as much as we do. -- posted by Dan & Amanda Boles

Easy meatloaf

Mon, 29 Dec 2003 20:00:34 -0500

This is my mom's very simple and very delicious meatloaf recipe. **Be careful- it's been reviewed as very salty!! It may not need the salt called for in the recipe. It is probably the Progresso breadcrumbs. I use kosher meat which does not need extra salt because it is already salted and also contributes to the flavor- I've tried and the flavor hasn't come out as good with other meat. -- posted by Pax44

Chicken Kneidlach (Chicken Matzo Balls)

Wed, 18 Feb 2004 20:00:17 -0500

I grew up on matzo kneidlach, but have recently discovered chicken kneidlach. They make a great addition to chicken soup, and are yummy in a rich vegetable soup or grain soup as well. You can have soup as a main dish on a cold winter's day. -- posted by Mirj

Corn Latkes

Fri, 26 Aug 2005 23:31:43 -0400

Corn latkes? Yes, corn latkes. Why should the humble tuber have all the fun? These are tasty variation on a Hanukkah favorite. So good, you shouldnt wait til then to make some. Depending on your mood you can serve them sweet or savory. -- posted by justcallmetoni

Carrot Latkes

Mon, 29 Aug 2005 20:26:03 -0400

Another take on this favorite Hanukkah tradition. This recipe is posted for the World Tour 2005 RecipeZaar event. I haven't had a chance to try these yet, but know I will enjoy them. The source is The Hadassah Jewish Holiday Cookbook - Traditional Recipes from Contemporary Kosher Kitchens. This particular recipe was contributed by Abe Koblin, Dayan Group, Baltimore Hadassah. -- posted by PanNan

Two-Potato Latkes

Mon, 26 Dec 2005 17:42:12 -0500

These are not fried in the symbolic olive oil but they are very good, anyway. I found these in Cooking Light, December 2005. We served these with applesauce and low-fat sour cream. Delish! -- posted by Manami

Banana Fritters a La Jacques Pepin

Tue, 03 Jan 2006 13:30:38 -0500

This is from Sweet Simplicity: Jacques Pepin's Fruit Desserts. These are all he said it is and more! The batter becomes like a "tempura" batter because of the ice water. We added a large egg because it is included in the directions and not ingredients and it made sense. If there is anyone who can look it up for me, I would appreciate it. I copied the notes by hand, copy machine at library was broken, & I wasn't allowed to check the book out. We made these for the last night of Hanukah, there were a lot of over ripe bananas and went ahead and made the fritters. I had been saving this recipe for awhile - am glad I did. -- posted by Manami

Quick Blini

Mon, 29 May 2006 20:52:17 -0400

Blini are thin buckwheat pancakes. Russian Blini are served with sour cream and caviar or smoked salmon. However, they also make a nice Hanukkah breakfast with some jam or pancake syrup on top. From the Jewish Holiday cookbook. The rising time is included in the cooking time. -- posted by LUv 2 BaKE

Best Potato Zucchini Latkes

The method for these latkes is what makes them stand apart from ordinary potato or potato zucchini latkes. These are so fabulous they even taste great cold! -- posted by Ashrei

Middle Eastern Chicken Schnitzel

Tue, 16 Dec 2008 18:35:32 -0500

Schnitzel came to Israel via immigrants from Austria and is very popular in the restaurants across the country. This recipe takes the common schnitzel and gives it a Mediterranean twist. -- posted by Celticevergreen

Creamy Smoked-Salmon Scrambled Eggs over Asiago Potato Pancakes

Mon, 22 Dec 2008 19:39:33 -0500

My girlfriend (from long ago) Judy and I were served brunch by a friend who is starting her catering business again. We had Champagne Punch & a few other items but all I wanted were those fabulous eggs & potato pancakes! It was so good! It was delicious! ;) I would prefer a white Chardonay or any very dry Spanish wine but what do I know? :) -- posted by Manami

Cheese Latkes

Tue, 23 Dec 2008 00:14:14 -0500

On Chanukah, it is traditional to eat fried foods, in commemoration of the oil which miraculously lasted eight days. These can also be eaten on Shavuot, when it is traditional to eat dairy foods. The recipe comes from Cardiff United Synagogue, in Wales. -- posted by DrGaellon

Potato Latkes (Potato Pancakes)

Tue, 23 Dec 2008 00:52:50 -0500

Latkas are a tradition for Channukah, but they are great anytime. This recipe makes about 15 latkas, but can easily be doubled or tripled. Easy to make, just allow time to stand at the stove with multiple frying pans. I use every burner that is open to speed it up. Traditionally served with applesauce on the side. Some people also top the pancakes with a little sour cream. -- posted by Karen67

Potato Latkes (Pancakes)

Thu, 08 Jan 2009 23:15:37 -0500

These are sauteed pancakes, and delicious. This is the way my grandmother made them, and they were served at the Jewish holidays of Hanukah and during the 8 days of Passover, but not at the Seder (dinner and religious service), but for a light supper. They are good served as a side dish with the Winter Vegetable Plate in my cookbook. If you don't have Matzo Meal (which is also great for breading meat or fish),substitute all purpose flour. -- posted by Chef Elaine C.

Mujadarra

Fri, 23 Jan 2009 17:33:09 -0500

This is a fantastic lentil dish. In my quest to find healthier food that my family liked and would actually eat, I decided to try this recipe. It was demonstrated on T.V. by Ali Sabbah from the Mazza Cafe, a Jewish restaurant, in Salt Lake City. My family just ate this up, even my picky five year old boy. I had to post it before I lost the recipe. -- posted by bluesagegirl

Potato Latkes / Muffins (Passover)

Thu, 09 Apr 2009 01:50:52 -0400

A really tasty, easy, and healthy recipe adapted from ''The Low-Fat Jewish Cookbook'' by Faye Levy and printed in the New York Times. They are more like cute, individual kugels than latkes, and are really yummy. -- posted by blucoat

Cottage Cheese Pancakes (Levivot)

Thu, 28 May 2009 01:30:44 -0400

This delicious, traditional Jewish recipe is from Joan Nathans wonderful cookbook, The Foods of Israel Today. Use the cinnamon and sugar for a sweeter pancake. You can also add a little vanilla . -- posted by blucoat

Potato & Cheese Latkes With Apple-Pear Sauce

Sun, 06 Dec 2009 11:16:25 -0500

I found these online about 6 years ago and never posted them. What I like is that they are savory and a combination of both cheese and potato.The potato-cheese latkes prep time = 15 mins & frying time = 10 mins per batch. The apple-pear sauce prep time = 10 mins & cooking time = 20 mins. While there is nothing like the traditional applesauce and sour cream, here's this variation - easy to make and tastes great!!!!;) -- posted by Manami
