Gefilte Fish
My mother-in-law made these oval gefilte fish balls every Passover and Rosh Hashanah. They were always delicious! The best legacy she left was to teach her sons how to do it, and in turn, they would teach their wives and then the next generation. This has been passed down, and today, it is still appreciated as the Mintz family gefilte fish.
Miracle Baking Powder Pie Crust
Using baking powder in pie crust guarantees it will turn out tender and flaky every time. This crust recipe is my favorite for fruit pies.
Cuban Goulash
I first had this served over egg noodles, but served with rice is just as nice. This recipe was introduced to me by a Cuban friend when I was seven years old. To this day, (twenty years later), it remains one of my favourites. Don't be frightened by this seemingly strange combination of ingredients; this is brilliant! The nice thing about this recipe is that it doesn't require any measurements. You use an equal amount of each ingredient, so it's infinitely scalable!
