Chopped Chicken Liver Ingredients 5 tablespoons schmaltz or vegetable oil, plus more as needed 1 1/2 pounds yellow onions (about 4), cut in rounds 1 clove garlic, minced 1 pound chicken liver (see note below) 2 tablespoons brandy or cognac 2 tablespoons chicken stock 1 bay leaf 1/4 teaspoon hot paprika Leaves from 1 branch of thyme Salt and freshly ground black pepper to taste 2 large eggs, hardboiled and peeled 2 tablespoons chopped parsley, or to taste Dark pumpernickel bread, to serve Directions 1. Put 2 tablespoons of schmaltz into a large heavy-bottomed frying pan set over medium heat. Add the onions and garlic and cover the pan. Once the onions start sizzling, lower the heat and continue cooking, covered, for about 20 minutes, stirring occasionally. Then cook, uncovered and stirring frequently, over medium-high heat for about 20 more minutes, or until the onions are brown and caramelized. 2. Meanwhile, rinse the livers and remove the veins, then pat dry. Warm 2 tablespoons of the schmaltz in a small frying pan set over high heat. Add the livers and sear on all sides, then lower the heat to medium-high and add the brandy or cognac, chicken broth, bay leaf, paprika, thyme, salt, and pepper. Continue cooking, stirring often, for about 3 to 5 minutes, until the livers are just barely pink inside. Remove the livers from the heat until the onions are done cooking, and discard the bay leaf. 3. When the onions are caramelized, add the livers to the onions and cook for 1 minute, just to warm through. Then, using a hand chopper or a food processor fitted with a steel blade, finely chop the livers and onions with the eggs, parsley, and the remaining tablespoon of schmaltz. Adjust seasonings to taste and serve on dark pumpernickel bread. Yield: About 2 cups chopped liver Note: You can also prepare this recipe using kashered livers, which are already broiled, thus removing all blood from them. Follow the directions above but only rinse the livers and pat dry before briefly searing to warm through. Add more schmaltz to your taste as the livers will be drier than if you use raw livers. .

Shabbat Hagadol: What Makes It Great? This Friday Night We Usher in Shabbat Hagadol, “The Great Sabbath.” It Is the Shabbat That Directly Precedes Pesach
The Weekly Message of Torah from Rabbi Rheins Shabbat HaGadol: What Makes It Great? This Friday night we usher in Shabbat HaGadol, “The Great Sabbath.” It is the Shabbat that directly precedes Pesach. Some maintain that it was called “HaGadol” (“Great”) because the sermon this Shabbat was frequently a long and detailed review of the laws and rituals of Passover and the Seder. That is, the “greatness” was not the quality of the Sabbath. Rather, it was the quantity, the great length of the service. Notwithstanding the kernel of truth at the center of that bit of folk wisdom, there are other explanations that are worthy of our attention. Rabbi Avraham HaLevi, a 17th century Polish scholar who is also known as The Magen Avraham, wrote a commentary in the Shulchan Arukh. He refers to a midrashic interpretation that maintains that this Shabbat is called “HaGadol” because a great miracle happened. Just before the Exodus from Egypt, on the 10th of Nisan, for some reason the Egyptian task masters did not try to prevent our ancestors from selecting the lambs that would be sacrificed and used the night of 14th, the evening of Passover. On this night, our ancestors began their preparations for their long awaited moment of redemption. The Passover began the evening of 14th of Nisan and was experienced on the night of the 15th, but the miracles that led up to and enabled the Exodus started well before. And so it is that though we will observe Passover with Seders next week in our homes on Friday night, April 19, we know that the greatness of that night depends on the preparation we make in the coming days.

Chopped Liver Recipe Chopped Liver Chopped Liver
Chopped Liver Recipe Chopped Liver Chopped Liver - traditional recipe for chopped chicken livers with schmaltz and gribenes. Deli-style Jewish holiday recipe for Passover, Rosh Hashanah, or just because. Ingredients • 1 1/2 lbs chicken livers • 1/4 cup schmaltz, divided (see note below) • 2 large onions, sliced (for a sweeter chopped liver, use up to 4 onions) • 5 hard boiled eggs, peeled and diced (divided) • Salt, to taste • Black pepper, to taste • 1/2 cup gribenes (optional - see note below) • 2 tbsp minced fresh parsley for garnish (optional) Recipe Notes You will also need: large cast iron or nonstick skillet with lid large enough to cover, kitchen shears, chef's knife, food grinder or food processor. Makes 3 1/2 cups chopped liver, serving size 1/4 cup. Calories calculated using 1 tsp salt and 1/2 tsp pepper. Learn to make schmaltz and gribenes here. Instructions 1. Prepare schmaltz and gribenes ahead of time, or purchase schmaltz from your local kosher market. Goose fat or duck fat can be used in place of schmaltz if desired. 2. Prepare the livers by cutting off any tough pieces or stringy tendons. You should also cut away any pieces of liver that look discolored, yellow or strange. This is pretty much the worst prep job ever, as uncooked liver has a soft and slimy texture, so make sure this step is done by someone with a strong stomach. 3. Add 2 tbsp schmaltz or oil into a large cast iron or nonstick skillet and melt over medium heat. Put half of the chicken livers into the skillet and fry them for 3 minutes on each side (about 6 minutes total).

Rosh Hashanah & Yom Kippur
“It’s not the Holidays without Eli’s.” ROSH HASHANAH & YOM KIPPUR CATERING A Break the Fast Classic Catering ROSH HASHANAH & YOM KIPPUR Whether Rosh Hashanah arrives early—like this year: September 6!—or not until October, Rosh Hashanah and Yom Kippur forever signify for me the end of Summer and the true beginning of Fall. No matter the weather, I don’t get into an autumn mindset till these two holidays are behind us. I know we’ll be together as a family to break the fast on September 16th. My brothers and I will discuss the quality and availability of smoked fish as we do every year, tell smokehouse stories—my brother Saul went to the smokehouses every week for years and years—and while none of us do that now, we still take a lot of interest in the fish we sell and the fish we eat. Need to turn your Labor Day barbecue into a Erev Rosh Hashanah family dinner? Need help going from summer’s ease to autumn obligations? The Catering Department here at Eli’s is ready to talk you through the menus and ingredients you’ll want to use to usher in the season ahead.

The Ethics of the Green Pass
CONVERSATION GUIDE FOR CURIOUS MINDS THE ETHICS OF THE GREEN PASS By mid February 2021, four million Israelis had received the first shot of the vaccine and 2.6 million got both doses. That accounts for two-thirds of those eligible to get vaccinated. In a TV interview with Yonit Levy, Israel’s Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu praised all those who were vaccinated, and enthusiastically encouraged those not yet immunised to climb aboard the vaccination train. “I call on all of those 570,000 people over the age of 50 who have not yet been vaccinated: Go and get vaccinated! Not just for your health but for all of our health,” Netanyahu said in a rare Channel 12 interview. “If those 570,000 people over 50 get vaccinated, it’ll not only be the last lockdown, but we’ll be done with COVID, period.” Despite some health experts rebuking this assessment, Netanyahu went on to call the cabinet decision earlier that week to start reopening Israel “wonderful news.” He said the “Green Pass” framework that was approved will allow vaccinated Israelis to go to the movies, attend sports matches, and eventually restaurants and flights abroad. DISCUSSION QUESTIONS 1. A survey of Israelis who have not vaccinated found that 41% said they fear possible side effects, 30% are not sure the vaccine is effective, 27% will vaccinate soon, 10% cited information on social media and 4% said the incentives are insufficient. Respondents were allowed to give more than one answer. What steps should the government take to address these concerns? 1 CONVERSATION GUIDE FOR CURIOUS MINDS 2.

Preparing for Your Passover Seder Banquet with Justin Kron
Preparing for your Passover Seder Banquet with Justin Kron If you’ve decided to take on the adventure of preparing a traditional Passover meal to go along with The Passover Experience (also see instructions on how to set up the head table and participant tables for the Seder portion of the program), this document will provide several suggestions for your menu. I am confident that the recipes and tips below will help make your Passover meal as good as the one I would have in my own home. First of all, if you are not having the meal catered, I recommend shopping at a wholesale store (e.g., Costo’s, Sam’s, etc.), if one is available, to help cut down on the cost of serving a large group. During Passover season you should not have a problem finding everything you need. The best places to shop are in areas where there is a Jewish community, but most big-name grocery stores will have a section where traditional Jewish foods are offered, usually labeled “Kosher.” You can also buy many of these items on Amazon. Secondly, to help keep your clean-up simple, I recommend using disposable plates and tableware. Of course, you’re always welcome to break out your fine china and silverware like my grandmother did! Lastly, the menu and recipes below are merely suggestions based on a traditional menu; they are not requirements. You can serve anything you want, although I don’t recommend serving anything with leaven/yeast in it, since that is the main thing that is restricted during Passover.
