    Only two more days of matzah! (Not including today)

    Just in case you’re getting sick of regular old matzah, here are some recipes you might enjoy (my family like’s ’em!):

    Passover Rolls (Grandma Bev’s recipe)

    2 cups matzah meal
    1 tsp salt
    1 Tbl sugar
    1 cup water
    1/2 cup oil
    4 eggs

    Combine first 3 ingredients. Boil water and oil together. Add to dry
    mixture. Beat in eggs, one at a time. Let stand 15 minutes. Shape into small
    balls with oil on hands and place on greased sheet at 375 for 50 minutes.

    __________________________________________________

    Fried Matzah (Grandpa Mort’s recipe)

    1 egg for every 1 1/2 matzah
    oil
    water
    salt
    pepper

    Crack matzah into 4-6 big chunks. Fill bowl with cold water. Immerse matzah
    and immediately drain. Mix eggs, salt, pepper separately. Then coat matzah
    in the mixture. Put oil in the pan and heat on medium high till it bubbles
    through the matzah when you test it. Put matzah in the pan and cook till
    golden brown & crispy. You can keep it as a pancake or break it into pieces
    as it cooks. You may want to sprinkle more salt when eating it.

    matzah me, matzah you..

    love it, when I can eat other things. not so much during P-over.

    the round, handmade ones are the best though

    I recommend the Hanging Rock Petit Verdot. It is fantastic and costs less than $10.

    I would recommend Chaumette Winery’s Bouvet Blanc – they’re based in Ste. Genevieve, Missouri.

    Best QOTD yet!

    Okay, here’s what I recommend:

    -my Grandma Bev’s Passover Rolls
    -my Grandpa Mort’s Fried Matzah (a.k.a. Matzah Brei)
    -my Dad/Zayde’s brisket (it’s kind of a secret recipe, so I can’t exactly give it away on a website, but if you want it, we’ll hook you up — my dad was thinking about doing a one-time “cooking show”-esque video podcast where he would make it, so who knows?)
    -2004 Tishbi Estate Jonathan Tishbi Special Reserve Sde Boker Single Vineyard Red (90 points Daniel Rogov, see http://www.haaretz.com/hasen/spages/808845.html )
    -2003 Yarden Katzrin Chardonnay, see above comments. 🙂

    I’ve been having whole wheat matzah this year, it’s pretty good. Give it a go, you might enjoy it. Not the same as homemade, I know, but I think it’s worth a try. Also, I hate to say it, but I don’t think I’ll be buying a book for Father’s Day… since I’m getting one (and one for me!) for my Dad for his birthday! (May 16) I hope you understand. 🙂

    Have a good weekend, and a good time at the draft!
