I know a guy who left being Torah observant. One day he asked the Rabbi's wife for her cholet recipe that he remembered enjoying back when he went to their home for Shabbos meals. He made her cholet recipe and didn't think it tasted as good as when he had it long ago. He decided the missing aspect was Shabbos, so he went back to keeping Shabbos and once again became Torah observant. Shabbos lunch at his home always included a delicious cholet.
I'm from Puerto Rico 🇵🇷 and I would like to say I love your videos. I hope you continue to share your recipes. I don't see enough focus on Jewish cooking. Thank you for sharing
I love your show I am from South Africa, and every once in a while, I make cholent for Shabbos, but I love your show! Keep doing what you do ! Shabat Shalom!
As a Cohen, you should start to do what you do intergrating with existence, and existence meaning Tora and Mizvois! Keep doing Shabbas, PUT TFILIN EVERY DAY! (I have a discount for you, Shanbas and Yom Tov, you don't need 🙂) and common, bring all the family together to Shabbas, light up candles 5 minutes before the time, get Shabbas on you, and be happy with family, and pray. Let the kids read more Tehilim, and read together with them!!! AM ISROEL HAI!!! AND WE ARE JEWS WE ARE AIMING TO MAKE MIZVOIS AND TORA = LIFE, LOVE AND PEACE IN HAPPINESS! WE ARE SEEKING FOR LIFE, AND THE ABOVE IS LIFE KINDNESS HONESTLY, TRUTH AND PEACE BY DOING MIZVOIS IN A SMILE OF OUR SOUL. BROCHA VE HAZLOCHA, ONLY PEACE AND STRONG TRUST IN GOD, BELIEVING IT'S GOOD, BUT YOU HAVE TO TRUST, AND TO EXECUTE. MAISE HU HAIKAR!!! EXECUTION IT'S THE MOST IMPORTENT. JUST DO. Start to bring them together more! 🙂 Brocha ve Hazlocha.
When I used to make cholent, I put in, sweet potatoes, regular potatoes, onion soup mix, honey, ketchup, garlic powder, onion powder, and short ribs. Oh and lots of water.
I make a vegan cholent with potatoes, corn broth, carribean style curry powder, and all natural peanut butter and when it's not pesach I add seitan with chickpeas. On pesach it's usually quinoa.
Make some schmaltz. Nothing to it. Chicken fat and skin and onions. Render fat, add onion, sliced, cook until browned and pour into a container through a sieve. Keep onion slices and bits of skin for "gribenes"...to eat on sliced dark bread. Allow to cool...fat will be at the top. Use as needed
I'm not Jewish but I work for them and love some of their dishes cholent my favorite and potato kugul the meat version don't know if I spelled it correctly also humus would be nice if you make a video how to prepare the potato kugul
Kol ha kavod,my chulant in a crock pot. My German Jewish mother is probably turning in her grave God bless her. I was brought up in the oven multiple hours chulant. I'm 60 I'm new school everything in the Crock-Pot❤❤❤
If you want to give the kishka a heart attack kick, substitute the chicken fat for rendered beef fat. I had real old-world kishka back in the 60's and even saw how it was made in the shul's kitchen. No one makes it like that anymore and it was soooo good. If you do, let us know.
Why do people have to put so much salt and suger. I cook a lot and cabinet full of spices of all kinds but i never put suger in my cholent or that much salt. But i like what you made and now i have to learn to make kishka
Yussi Weisz We actually enjoyed it very much.It’s just melting in your mouth..ohh yum My husband ended up eating too much 😁 I would not tell you what kind of meat I used though😬(thank you for taking the time to reply, really appreciated)
Nice one! did you say "Merake"? we say or call the fat gravey " Mereke" too in Amharic. and in one of our tribe there is a kind of similar food called kashka made out of corn flour wraped with green or cabbage ( mustrad leaf) is that a considense or there is a connection? Shalom Brother!!
You can skip it all together for a healthier version :) or you can add a half cup of oil, that should do the trick. But for best flavor try to get some chicken fats from your local butcher and render it down over a low flame.
Two Questions for you please ... First, the BBQ sauce. There are so many types of BBQ sauce. Which one to choose from? Second, what are you wrapping the Kishke in? Is that baking paper? Is it healthy to have the chemicals of the baking paper bake into the magnificent Cholent? Thank you good sir!
Hi just to ask you please could you give the amounts of bread and flour for the kishka I know it's hard for good cooks to do that as it's all by your eye but it would really help!! Shabbat shalom 🙋
I will love to see this recipe vegetarian made with home made kishka ;) I'm colombia you can add chaya, plantain, panels and you can blend a little bit of the carrots with beans. Latin variation ;)
The kichka thing is very curious: in Portugal, where I'm from, we have a sort of sausage that's filled with a paste of bread, flour, seasoning including paprika, garlic and chicken meat. Now the curious thing is it was a thing Jews made. In traditional Portuguese homes, it was a custom having pork sausages and bacon smoking by the fire. So if you didn't have any it would look suspicious. These sausages are a part of traditional Portuguese foods, the best are still the ones made with chicken. But these days they are done with pork also. We call them ALHEIRAS (GARLICKY). We eat them fried or broiled. The skin is cut, just a superficial cut (they are horseshoe shaped) along the inside of the sausage, so it comes out when cooking. Sorry about the long "thingy", but this is very curious. Best regards from Lisbon Portugal.
a freilichen Channukah. maybi suggest start by searing the meat on all sides in the pot, remove, then add onions and cook per usual. deglade pan after browning veg and then add beans potatoes etc as usual. return meat to pot at the end before covering.
The Kishke recipe is outstanding. I made it last night. The recipe I had been using requires blending carrot onion celery and egg and results is a very wet and hard to work with dough. This was equally excellent and very easy to work with. Is there a Passover version?
@@Elizabeth-rp1pi here’s the way it works in the winter, when Shabbos begins early. Put it in the crockpot at 14:00 friday, serve at 10:00 Saturday. Cook on low throughout.
@@How_to_613 Too many the list would be long.I'd like to ask you if Yiddish is a type of German dialect. Also I just discovered Knishes:they look delicious but nowhere to be found in my town.Goldbelly has them . Di you do a video about them??
@@sonogabri1 Yiddish has a lot of words similar to or the same as the German language but I wouldn't say it's a dialect of the German language. It's a language mixed of many languages from Hebrew to German, French, English, and polish, and even Russian. It's the language that the European jews spoke and added words wherever the diaspora took them. However, probably has most words from Germany, but the pronunciations are quite different. Knishes are similar to bourekas which is easier to make. Bourekas are made with puffed pastry and can be filled with many things but most times with mashed potato, mushrooms, or spinach. you can also fill it with cheese and eat it as a snack. If you want I can find for you a recipe.
Shalom Yussi, I bet you have Hungarian ancestry. I was born there and the Cholent (Sholet) we used to have had no juices, all beans were standing without sticking together. Lots of beans, little barley some boiled eggs, and "kugli" - that you call kishka. It was shaped round and placed in the pot without wrapping to get the taste of the beans and meat. Another version was filling geese necks with the same mix you call Kishka. It was called "hulzni". As I remember Kishka meant guts, beef guts and that might have been another enhancement for cholent with that ingredient.
What is Kishka? "It's kind of a stuffed meat thing. Israeli soldiers carry it. Incase they're captured behind enemy lines, they eat it and it kills them." Jerry Seinfeld
As a non Jew when I saw cholent cooked I thought it would be great for my crockpot. I put in too much barley and beans and broke my pot. The dish was delicious though.
that's not kishke at all. great grandma and my grandma made it proper. intestines like a hot dog casing. I forgot how they made it but I think they got it when I was still like a 7 year old living in Beverly Fairfax area in los angles, they called it a jewish ghetto, at that time. cholent was super basic didn't have a massive number of ingredients.
Exactly ! And when the vibrant orthodox community that is over 1500 years old would put on a "shtreimel" on a cooking show, that would be a joke as well. :)
@@raidersinthesky what is the point of having two different things being named the same way? What would happen if one named both of his children with 'Alex"
@@jannieschluter9670 then if it’s Alex. Give them a nickname or a code. Alex 1 or Alex 2. Just like pork and chicken. One is made with pork, one with chicken but the same name.
