Jewish cooking
Peel and pit some peaches, cut in slices and add as much sliced
pineapple, some apricots, strawberries and raspberries, put these in a
dish. Prepare a syrup of juice of two lemons, two oranges, one cup of
water and one pound sugar, a half teaspoon of powdered cinnamon, grated
rind of lemon, add one cup red wine and a half glass of Madeira, arrak
or rum. Boil this syrup for five minutes, then pour over the fruit,
tossing the fruit from time to time until cool. Place on ice and serve
cold.
FISH SALAD
Take one pound cold boiled fish left over from the day previous, or boil
fresh fish and let cool, then skin, bone and flake. If fresh fish is
used, mix two tablespoons of vinegar, a pinch of salt and pepper with
the fish. Make a mayonnaise dressing (French mayonnaise preferred), and
mix half with the fish, leaving other half to spread over top of salad,
after it is put in bowl. Serve either with or without lettuce leaves.
FISH SALAD FOR TWENTY PEOPLE
Boil four pounds of halibut, cool and shred fish. Marinate the fish as
directed. When ready to serve add six hard-boiled eggs chopped, and one
pint bottle of pickles or chow-chow. The pickle may be omitted and
celery cut fine be added. When these are well mixed serve on lettuce
leaves with mayonnaise dressing, of which one pint will be required.
MAYONNAISE OF FLOUNDER
Put some fillets of flounder into boiling water with a little salt and
lemon juice, and cook until tender, then drain thoroughly.
When cold, put them in the center of some chopped lettuce, cover with
mayonnaise sauce and garnish with slices of tomatoes and hard-boiled
eggs.
HERRING SALAD, No. 1
Soak four herrings in cold water overnight, and then rinse several times
in fresh cold water. Skin, bone, and cut in one-half inch pieces. Peel
two apples, and cut in dice. Mix with herring, then add one-half cup of
coarsely chopped almonds and one onion chopped fine. Remove the milsner
or soft egg from the inside of herring, and mash perfectly smooth. Add
one-half cup of vinegar, one teaspoon of sugar, pinch of pepper. Mix
well, and then pour over herring, stirring with a fork to prevent
mashing. Set in ice-box until ready to serve. Put sliced lemons on top.
Herring can be left whole, dressing made and poured over whole herrings.
HERRING SALAD, No. 2
Soak three nice herrings in cold water three hours. Then remove the head
and tail and bones. With a scissors cut in pieces as small as dice, add
one-half cup of English walnuts cut fine, one tablespoon of boiled beets
cut fine, two tablespoons of capers, one large apple cut in small pieces
and one dill pickle cut up. Then take the soft egg (milchner) and mix
with two cups of white vinegar until soft, add one teaspoon of sugar,
three cloves and allspice and pour the sauce over the ingredients. The
sauce should not be too thick. Mix all well together, and serve a
spoonful on a lettuce leaf for each person.
This salad will keep for weeks.
