Feast Your Eyes: Prepared gefilte fish

gefilte fish
Saturday afternoon, Scott and I picked up my great-aunt Belle and drove out to my cousin's house for my family's Seder dinner. It was Scott's first Seder and Belle's 90th, so she gave him a quick rundown of what expect on the way out there. The Seder dinner was moderately traditional, starting out with a shortened Haggadah gefilte fish and matzo ball soup (the addition of fresh dill made the matzo balls particularly delicious) and then ending with roasted lamb, string beans and matzo kugel.

It was the first time that Scott tasted gefilte fish, and when the verdict was that it wasn't too bad at all. Our gefilte fish was nice looking, but not quite as lovely as the stuff you see above. Thanks for the picture, C(h)ristine!

Martha Stewart's Passover Feast

Passover begins on Monday at sundown, and Martha Stewart has planned four menus in celebration - a Traditional Seder Dinner, Spring Celebration, Passover Dessert Buffet, and a Passover Brunch.

Even if you aren't planning to prepare kosher food or host a Passover feast yourself, the site is worth checking out anyways as there are a number of absolutely delicious-sounding meal ideas (complete with some pretty fabulous photos) which you could easily incorporate into your own menu planning.

Just a small sampling of her recipes include Gefilte Fish with Fresh Beet Horseradish, (as pictured, above), Grilled Asparagus with Caramelized Shallot Vinaigrette, Matzo Ball Soup, Profiteroles with Caramelized Bananas, and Passion Fruit Mimosas. You can view the full menus via the link below.

Tip of the Day

Have you ever stashed a Coke in the freezer, hoping to chill it quickly, then forgotten all about it, only to have it explode all over your frozen peas?
