Recipezaar: Jewish (Ashkenazi) recipesThe newest Recipezaar recipesin:Jewish (Ashkenazi)Shmaltz- November 7, 2007 From Raymond Sokolov: "Kosher laws don't permit the use of dairy fat (butter) with meat... Jews had no access to vegetable or olive oil so they turned to chickens. They produced their own flavorful meat-cooking fat... The richest deposit of chicken fat appears in the neck of a raw chicken. One chicken will not yield enough raw fat to be worth rendering; a fowl will give up barely enough. Harbor chicken fat in the freezer. When you have a substantial quantity, render it, as indicated below..http://www.recipezaar.com/263816 Roasted Tzimmes- November 4, 2007 This is a traditional sweet Passover stew made of all types of fruits and vegetables with some distinctive spices. I started roasting mine, after an idea I got from Martha Stewart. -- posted by AniSarithttp://www.recipezaar.com/263220 Authentic RussianUkrainian Borscht- November 1, 2007 This is the real way to make Borscht. No canned veggies, no messing around. Just real hearty Borscht, the way my mother makes it. Good ingredients are key, especially the meat, which should be fresh and thick. Once you've had this Borscht, you will not be able to eat any other. For the non-kosher, try it au-natural, or with a nice spoonful of sour cream mixed in (please, not low fat, enjoy this!). -- posted by AniSarithttp://www.recipezaar.com/262907 |
