I know that I am way too late for the contest but I had to write. I had to reread Karen’s post because I wasn’t sure if we were related. My Bubbie Ida would make her gefilte fish and I was the lucky grandchild to take home a jar of the fish stock.When lunch time came mom would heat up some of the stock and then break matzohs in it for me to eat.

Not the ideal thing now for this vegetarian. lol

My favorite passover dish is Charoset toped on a Matza.
it is so good and also has a moderen flavor of healthy food,after thousands of years.

funny! I thought at first you said matza BRIE, like the cheese, which sounded fantastic… but I think you are rhyming brie with fry. enjoy it, whichever dish it is! chag same’ach!

my favorite passover dish is gefilte fish; followed by tea eggs (my sensei’s family always serves those with the seder- my jiu jitsu should perhaps be called jew jitsu- half of the dojo is jewish :)

Oh oh! I just remembered an important Pesach food! Bubelach! My father makes them every year, a light mixture of beaten egg whites, beaten yolks, and matza meal, fried in a good 1/2″ of oil, and when brown on both sides, sprinkled liberally with sugar, and always served with sweet red wine. The hot dumplings, the crunchy sugar, the sweet alcohol – ahh, it’s Pesach!

My children liivvvvve for my matzoh meal pancakes. Pancakes, shmankcakes what makes my matzoh meal pancakes different from all other matzoh meal pancakes? Besides a mother’s love, I fluff those egg whites until there are some serious peaks going and gently fold the whites in the rest of the batter to make a light and fluffy pancake which my oldest son (who eats nothing) praises to no end and he gives me big bachur (16) hugs. I sometimes find kosher l’pesach maple syrup but the kids like to have sugar on them during Pesach to keep it different. A bie gezunt!
