Family Participation Is The Essential Ingredient In All Passover Recipes There was always a sense of warmth and support when we sat in the kitchen, whether we were watching Mom (in those days it was generally a Mom thing) prepare some new or familiar dish, or when we were invited to actually participate in the cooking or baking. Not only did we have a chance to be drawn in to the actual task, but we had an extended and supportive opportunity to talk about whatever was on either her mind or on ours. Somehow it was the most encouraging environment for what today we call “communication.” The informality linked with the tastes and smells and the sight of the cooking and baking seemed just right. Today, one of the phenomena of the modern modern American family is that fathers are cooking and baking more than ever before; some claim that it is quickly becoming the number one avocation of men between the ages of 25 and 45.

Chicken & Napa Cabbage Salad
Chicken & Napa Cabbage Salad with Cucumber, Asparagus, & Cashews PREP TIME: 15 minutes COOK TIME: 15-25 minutes SERVINGS: 2 Tonight’s recipe is our take on a restaurant favorite: the Chinese chicken salad. We’re starting with a base of napa cabbage (yours may be green or red), cucumber, and carrots, marinated in sesame oil and rice vinegar. After a few minutes, the vegetables soften a bit, but maintain just enough crispness to stand up to hearty chicken—cooked in an umami-rich combination of soy sauce and sweet white miso paste. Verdant asparagus and crunchy cashews bring even more satisfying texture to the dish. MATCH YOUR BLUE APRON WINE Lush & Fruity Serve a bottle with this symbol for a great pairing.

Jews, Irish Share Corned Beef Tradition
March 2018 Volume XXIX, Issue 4 Jews, Irish Share Corned Beef Tradition As we inaugurate Temple Beth Or’s First Corned Beef Festival, let’s ponder the age-old question: is corned beef Irish or Jewish? To be sure, corned beef and cabbage are considered the traditional fare of St. Paddy’s Day. But this was not always the case! Pork had previously been the preferred menu item for the day. In Ireland, cattle were used for dairy production and were only slaughtered for food if necessary. Corned beef might not be the Jews’ only renowned col- Pigs were bred for meat. laboration with the Irish. In the early 20th century, Irish and But when the Irish immigrated in great numbers (in the Jewish immigrants collaborated on music for Tin Pan Alley, mid 19th century) to America, they faced discrimination and touching on themes dear to the hearts of immigrants in the poverty. They moved into the slums and tenements along- crowded tenements of New York City. There, Irish compos- side other immigrants such as the Jews and Italians. It was er William Jerome (originally Flannery) and Jean Schwartz at the Jewish delis and lunch carts that the Irish experienced wrote “If it wasn’t for the Irish and the Jews” about their Jewish corned beef and noted its similarity to the far more shared experiences. They wrote: expensive Irish bacon they loved. Jewish immigrants had perfected the brisket cut of meat “… I often sit and think what would this country be as their trademark. Brisket was an economical cut of meat If we hadn’t men like Rosenstein and Hughes.
