Well, I was just wondering what do you cook for Shabbos/Shabbat. I usually cook on Friday, but unfortunately something came up and had to cook tonight. So while I am waiting for the food to finish cooking, I am in the coffee room. If you can share what is your usual menu for Shabbos, or even a favorite receipe…
January 30, 2009 4:23 am at 4:23 am #641463oomisParticipantTop of the rib in sweet sauce.
Corn Kugel, Yerushalmi Kugel, my special rice, chicken a l’orange, cholent, chicken soup (not int eh order given), and chocolate pie for dessert.
I take a graham cracker crust, mix two packages of instant chocolate pudding with 2 cups Hadar whip and one cup pareve creamer, pour into the pie shell and sprinkle coarsely crushed Viennese Crunch all over the top to cover it. Freeze and serve for dessert (you can take it out at the beginning of the meal and let it thaw a little).
January 30, 2009 4:30 am at 4:30 am #641464CuriousMemberI cook up trouble!
January 30, 2009 4:33 am at 4:33 am #641465mazal77ParticipantMechse = any vegetable stuffed with rice, meat and spices, like zucchini, onion skins, potatoes, tomatoes, eggplant.
Ames, I made chicken soup with tons of veggies, squash Mechse, string beans in tomato sauce, and a turkey roast with cranberry, soy sauce, duck sauce concuction.
I have a vegatarian chulent on the stove, cold cuts, potato borekas, various salads, and Lechmeagene for lunch. For the Mod’s info, that would be a meat pie.
Dessert is a store bought cinnamon loaf, cookies, grapes, and oranges.

January 30, 2009 4:40 am at 4:40 am #641468asdfghjklParticipantames & mazel77: i’m so coming over!!! save me a seat at your tabels!!!!
January 30, 2009 4:48 am at 4:48 am #641469asdfghjklParticipantames: you know mod72 is diabetic!!!!
January 30, 2009 4:51 am at 4:51 am #641470mazal77ParticipantOh and no meal would be complete without rice, but that is only good freshly made.
Onion Mecshe receipe (aromas of Aleppo
3 spanish or vidalia onions
1 lb Hashu (chopped meat and rice mixture)
3 tablespoons tamarind concentrate (available in most local flatbush stores)
2 tablespoon lemon juice
1 teaspoon kosher salt
1 teaspoon sugar (optional)
1. Cook the onions, first cut a vertical slit down the side of each onion and remove the other skin. (I usually make a cut down the onion, before I boil it.) Put the onions in a large saucepan and cover with water, bring to a boil. reduce heat and simmer for 20 minutes till onion layers begin to soften.
2. Drain and remove the onion from the saucepan. Seperate the individual layers of each onion.
3.spoon a tablespoon of the Hashu mix into each onion layer and roll slightly. ( the onion can be frozen on a baking sheet, once frozen, you can transfer in to a frezzer bag for storage.
4. Preheat oven to 350*
5. Place the stuffed onions in a medium ovenproof saucepan or roaster. In a small bowl, mix the tamarind sauce, with the lemon juice, salt, 1 cup of water, & sugar if using. Pour sauce over stuffed onions. Top with ovenproof plate to keep onions from opening. Bring to a boil over high heat, then reduce the heat to low, cover and simmer for 30 minutes, or till juice have thickened and the meat is fully cooked. Transfer to the oven and continue to cook the onions for 1 hour and 20 minutes.
NOTE: I skip the stove top part and put it straight into the oven (minus the plate). I also use cooked rice in the hashu mixture. If you use raw rice, please note, that it will expand and blow out of the shell. Also, check from time to time that there is some liquid in the baking dish. If you need, add a little water, to keep it from drying out.
January 30, 2009 4:53 am at 4:53 am #641471mazal77Participantasdf…. Fadell- that means welcome!! We would love to have you.
January 30, 2009 5:03 am at 5:03 am #641472mazal77ParticipantI made a squash mechse tonight – Sorry, don’t have exact measurements. I use small-medium size zucchini squash. I cut each zucchini into 2-3 pieces, which I hollow out. (I save the insides for something else, like a squash quiche or throw them into a soup.) After I fill it with the meat and rice mixture, along with allspice, cinnamon, salt, an black pepper. I take a large pot and add 4 cloves of garlic and saute in a little oil, than add the stuffed zucchini, and steam, it for five minutes. Then I toss in some dried apricots, some lemon juice, and fill the pot with water to cover the squash. I usually put a ovenproof plate over the squash in the pot. I let it cook for at least 2 hours on a low flame. It is delicious.
January 30, 2009 5:10 am at 5:10 am #641473asdfghjklParticipantmazel77: thanx ya so kind!!!

January 30, 2009 5:15 am at 5:15 am #641475mazal77ParticipantAmes, got to clariy who is Poopa. She is Poopa Dweck and She is the author of Aromas of Aleppo.
I also use prune butter in the onion mechse as well. I was just giving the receipe from the cook book.
January 30, 2009 5:19 am at 5:19 am #641476mazal77ParticipantThat’s why we need other posters. Asdf.. can’t you find a receipe. At least tell us what is on you menu for Shabbat??

January 30, 2009 5:44 am at 5:44 am #641480mazal77ParticipantAmes,we might!! but I think that’s as far as that conversation can go, or may we get our thread cut. 🙁
Asdf… that is quite some soup. I think that might be a chulent in it’self.
January 30, 2009 5:47 am at 5:47 am #641481mazal77Participantames, you DON’T want to know what a gizzard is. but since you’re always googleing.
January 30, 2009 6:38 am at 6:38 am #641483mazal77ParticipantAmes – it IS what you think it is, (well maybe what you DON’T want to think it is.)
January 30, 2009 6:42 am at 6:42 am #641484mazal77ParticipantAmes, I knew someone who used to make it in their Hamud.(Mods’, that’s a sour & sweet kind of broth with veggie and syrian meatballs. Sorry, no receipe, my family doesn’t like it, therefore, I don’t make it.)
January 30, 2009 6:52 am at 6:52 am #641485mazal77ParticipantAmes, I don’t think ASDF… knows what a gizzard is. Then I don’t think he would be eating it. Some things are an acquired taste I think.
If you want to know what it looks like,(if you are a little curious, no, not you Curious) ask your butcher to point it out for you.
January 30, 2009 6:55 am at 6:55 am #641486asdfghjklParticipantames: ha way 2 funny that google!!! it’s some part of the turkey!!! to be honest most guest that see it on my table get grossed out, even one of my sister-in-laws are scared of it!!!

What would you call it? Ames’ and Mazal77’s wacky creations? I’m not sure either one of them would go for it, unless they don’t notice it after you change the foum name to something less demeaning (which still shows in the URL).
January 30, 2009 4:22 pm at 4:22 pm #641502squeakParticipantNo, this time it’s Yiddish, which I don’t normally spell with Latin letters. I could reword it in Deutsch, if you’d like, or I could just translate. I said that we must have a bit to drink after the fish. So I make something that everyone can stomach (though I myself stick to good ‘ole Maker’s Mark).
