Bubbe's Rosh Hashanah Message
12/09/2007
For our viewers and friends from all over the world,
I want to express my thanks, appreciation, encouragement and for your inspiration which has helped make our videos a success. This has been a very exciting year for both Avrom and I.
Tonight on the eve of Rosh Hashanah, known as the Jewish New Year, I want to kick off the New Year wishing everyone good health, wealth, happiness, and peace.
Take time out, beginning with the traditional custom of dipping a slice of apple in honey. Why not join with our family and yours to start dinner off with everyone sitting around the table together, dipping a slice of apple in honey, wishing each other a sweet and good year.
Another good use of honey can be seen in the recent video that I made for Food Network's Dave Lieberman's show on Yahoo “In Search of Real Food”. The dish I made for Dave is vegetarian and is called tzimis and a meat version can be seen in episode #14 of my show listings. Both are made with carrots and honey and are a traditional dish made for Rosh Hashanah.
I continue to look forward to your emails and comments. I am amazed by the voice mail and the volume that I have received these past few months. And I have enjoyed speaking with you over AIM and on me.dium.com. I look forward to hearing from all of you.
Oh, and for a Yiddish greeting to have a happy holiday is “GUT YOMTOV”May we all have a good and sweet year, wherever you are located.
Gut yomtov-Bubbe

Episode Summary : In the summer heat, you need a fruity treat, to keep yourself cool. Show Notes: This episode is dedicated to me.dium.com Summer time, is a time for food, family and fun. One of our viewers Tad from the University of Kansas, asked the tough question. He wanted to learn how to pick out the best from the fruit and vegetable section. It is then that the new theme music kicked in. Pretty snazzy... Bubbe starts talking about how this is the perfect season for fruit and Bubbe wanted to thank everyone for emailing her about fruit. She then talks about fruit being taken off the tree that it is hard so that since it is coming to the store it has to be semi ripened so that the store can sell it correctly. First Bubbe shows off her fresh fruits, grapes that are fine not worry about. Cherries, Bubbe likes to eat them like nuts. And then watch out for the nectarines and the peaches, apples, and plumbs. You have to watch carefully for the stone in the middle like mango. Mango is delicious and more popular everyday, it needs to be soft and sweeten. Another fruit is an avocado, if it is green it is not ripened, it needs to turn black and soft to the touch. Try to buy fruit a day or two beforehand and those that want to make it ripe quicker uses a paper bag. Make sure to wash and prepare the fruit. Bubbe loves using a clear bowl. And use her lime concoction. Look at the squeezing of the lime, you can see the aroma. Yiddish word of the day and then all of a sudden, Avrom pulls a fast one... ok fine, it's time for an ask Bubbe. Hedwig85 on YouTube wrote in asking about the mushrooms in the fricassee are they necessary if you are allergic. Bubbe responds that they are not necessary and you can still make the dish. No crime of leaving out the mushrooms. Yiddish word of the day sponsored by me.dium.com make sure to check out sneak peeks and special exclusives of Feed Me Bubbe on me.dium.com The word today is "mishpokhe" meaning family. Thank you to everyone using are two godaddy codes, POD59 and BLU59 And Bubbe wants to thank the emails, she wants you to be patient with her.

For this special offer, visit www.gotomypc.com/podcast Sherri P. from Arizona you are our hero! Contributions have been amazing. If it was not for all of your amazing support this episode would not be possible. During the time we were off the air the following had to be repaired: First there was the camera, it needed a good cleaning and $300 worth of parts to get it to work again. Then there was the issue of the computer and camera not hooking up correctly so we were forced to upgrade our software. In the end we are scraping the bottom of the bucket. Those that have donated so far you have done a huge mitzvah (kindness) to preserving these wonderful memories. I am trying to treat this as a job to make sure it gets proper care but I can only do it with your help. We are thrilled to be back and are doing everything in our power to solve all of the issues that have taken place so far. We could have just given up when the repairs needed to be done, but your support has allowed us to continue. Now on to the meat and potatoes.... Today we are going to make blintzes and we have recieved so many requests that this episode was going to be blintzes. It brought back memories of when Bubbe used to make them. Want to make them with bubbe then check out the recipe here (coming soon) Bubbe's gotten a little lazy going with frozen blintzes which is not so bad but in this episode she got to experience finding the recipe. After a long search she found it burried under so many other little recipes. Blintzes can be eaten any time so Bubbe wants to thank everyone for sending in for this request. Bubbe then shows the ingredients. There is a lot of alternating with a little flour and water. More flour and more water, mour flour and then more water. Keep stirring, more water, even more water, more flour, move it, basically keep it moving. Then there is the frying pan. You need to choose one that will become partners with you. And when it comes to the margarine you can use foil. We then proceed to watch Bubbe make batch after batch in the frying pan. And the best part is when she bangs it on the table. Be sure to bang with strong force. The key with all of this is that it takes time and that the first few are always not good or perfect. Don't worry if it's not good the first few as you do more attempts it will get better over time. And don't forget to grease the pan. Time for an Ask Bubbe, this one comes from Meridith who asks "I just found your show today, and I absolutely love it... I'm planning on trying several recipes do you have any advice on where I could substitute butter in your recipe safely, and where it would be a bad idea? Bubbe's answer is that she likes to use margarine since she wants to cut down on cholestorol and fat for dairy meals and for meat and parave using parave margarine. Yiddish word of the Day today is YONTEV which means holiday, so we want to wish everyone a gut yontev, well at that time we were hoping the episode was going to come out before shavuos. Oh well, it may be a little late but we still wish you a gut yontev. Avrom's Behind the Scenes look let's you know another incident with gotomypc.com/podcast. Make sure to check it out and if you like it tell them Feed Me Bubbe sent you. Now time for the feeling and the adding of the cheeses and the mushing together and softening to make a nice blended filling. Then it's time to fry and smell the aromas. Just listen to them sizzle. It's to die for especially with sour cream and a sprinkling for the blintzes. Try them, see you next time and we need m
