Partytime Butternut Squash Cake

Feb 21, 2013 2:04:11 PM

So good you could serve this as a birthday cake, instead of pumpkin pie on Thanksgiving , or for company anytime. Or just make it for your own family to enjoy, It's so good you had better hide a few pieces for yourself before it's all gone. The best part of this cake is that you can use whole wheat flour and you will not be able to tell the difference from all purpose flour! Truly truly amazing.

This is a peach cake recipe adapted from http://www.food.com/recipe/fresh-peach-cake-67536. I made some alterations that change the consistency and flavor a bit though, so I decided to post it separately. You can also make this recipe with apples or pears.

American Kitchen Classic Gefilte Fish

Dec 9, 2011 1:22:43 AM

Gefilte means "stuffed" in Yiddish and this refers to a traditional Jewish method for freshwater fish to give them more flavor. The fish was stuffed with a mixture of matzo meal, herbs and vegetables. Because freshwater fish tends to be bony, another method evolved. The fish was filleted and ground together with the above ingredients and then stuffed back into the reserved fish skin making little oval fish pouches. Today Gefilte fish is no longer stuffed; instead a combination of several kinds of fish are ground together, seasoned, made into ovals, and poached in fish stock. Among religiously observant Jews, gefilte fish has become a traditional Shabbat food since you don't have to pick the bones out of the fish, which is prohibited on the Shabbat. It is also one of the symbolic foods served on the Jewish New Year, Rosh Hashanah. This is an overnight dish.

Tishpishti (Turkish Walnut Cake)

Nov 9, 2011 9:47:52 PM

Tishpishti is a famous Jewish specialty of Turkey that is a rich, luscious walnut cake bathed in syrup. There are similar recipes that exist in Northern Spain, so the dessert may have originated there, possibly as a Passover cake. However, others believe Tishpishti was always served on Rosh Hashanah, the Jewish New Year. Alternatives - use 1 1/2 cup walnuts and 1/2 cup almonds or 1 cup walnuts and 1 cup hazelnuts. For Passover, omit the baking soda and replace 1/2 cup walnuts with 1/2 cup matzo meal.

Cholent

Oct 3, 2011 2:44:35 AM

Cholent is a traditional meat stew made by many Jewish families every Sabbath. It is prepared on Friday afternoon - rarely measured, so all measurements listed are approximate - and cooks slowly until it is served at lunch on Saturday. I would consider this a basic Ashkenazi cholent, with the flavors of the meat and the onion being dominant. it is open to interpretation, of course, and I often modify the flavors and ingredients depending on my mood. The optional additions are some I've encountered, feel free to add your own!

Andrea's Challah

Sep 12, 2011 1:16:46 AM

This challah comes from a friend who gave me HER friend's recipe - and I don't even know if she knows how many people it has been given to! WARNING: This recipe makes 8 medium sized loaves, so if you don't a bowl big enough or the freezer space, you might want to reduce it. This challah is sweet, rich and a little dense (not hard, just... weighty), so if you are looking for light as air and fluffy, this is not what you're looking for. It's addictive fresh out of the oven, perfect for french toast, and a wonderful base recipe for yeast cakes such as Chocolate Babka. A note: the recipe says to bake it at 350, but I found that with the high sugar content the challahs browned too quickly so I bake mine at 325. If your oven is more even than mine (likely) feel free to try the higher temperature.

Israeli Really Simple No Bake Cheesecake

Jun 7, 2011 3:38:59 PM

Every Israeli mother makes this when in a hurry or lazy. Great for parties or the Shavuot holiday. You can make it as small or as large as you need. There are also many ways to make it less rich to cut down calories but the taste will be affected. I often drizzle flavors on the top and between layers like maple syrup, silan (date honey), fig honey, dulce de leche or chocolate sauce.

Potato and Steak Overnight Kugel Aka Yapchik

May 2, 2011 1:33:50 PM

You don't have to leave this overnight but it works really well if you choose to do so. This is also known as a yapchik, which is basically a potato kugel covering either flanken or a swiss steak. If you prefer no bones, definitely go with the swiss steak which is very tender and delicious and not an expensive cut. I use this recipe for my kugel minus sauteing the onion [Recipe 71313] .

Koloocheh (Persian Purim Cookies)

Mar 28, 2011 4:06:27 PM

This is a dairy version of the cookies my fiance's grandma would prepare for Purim (a Jewish holiday in the spring). The crisp shortbread dough encases a sweet filling made of walnuts and rose water. Easy to make, and delicious! Note: the original recipe is parve and uses oil in place of butter. I have never made cookies without butter or margarine and was scared to try it without knowing the proper proportions. If you know how to do it, please let me know! :)
