Barry's Own Blend of Jewish Recipes

By Barry Harvey

A quick note about this book you will by now that the majority of recipes are
Jewish and Austrian, The Jewish Calendar is peppered (no pun intended) with
religious and traditional festivals, celebrated with a multitude of different
foods which also Incorporates different foods from other countries which
I have added to this book. I have always loved food and started taking an
interest in food at a very young age; by writing this book for me it preserves
the traditions and enables me to pass my knowledge to my children therefore
by doing this they will not forget where they come from.
For me it is important to encourage my children to cook and also try some
of the food I was brought up with when I was a Child.

To begin with these recipes can be eaten by all, communities and in particular by both communities indicated by the above symbols.

I saw these two sentences and to me it says everything, it’s straight to the point and true personally, we all should never forget what is written down has meaning.

What hath fins and scales in the waters, in the sea’s and in the rivers shall yield.

Leviticus 11.9

A man hath no better thing under the sun than to eat and drink and be merry.

Ecclesiastes 8:15

I think the above statements says it all as it is so true here would we be without food? There are many Jewish communities all over the world which have a very wide repertoire of recipes which have meaning in relation to the history, and in doing so reflects in the food we eat. Every tradition is in one way or another incorporates the meals eaten and more so when it comes to high Holidays. A quick note about this book you will notice that the majority of recipes are Jewish and Austrian, The Jewish Calendar is peppered (no pun intended) with religious and traditional festivals, celebrated with a multitude of different foods which will represent each holidays. Some of these meals not only represent Jewish Holidays but also Incorporates different foods from other countries which I have added to this book.

In this book I have written all Jewish recipes and no surprise the humble latke, will be in the book, the classic is gefilte fish and many other dishes I on a personal note do not like fish I am not a fish lover I may have a Bagel with cream cheese and a little smoked salmon but that’s about it. I will only eat fish such as Cod nothing else, the only way I will eat fish is if it is made in to gefilte fish. You may now be thinking I am contradicting myself by making this comment but you have just said you do not eat fish yet you will eat a bagel with cream cheese and a little smoked salmon but that’s about it. Only a few weeks ago we had some white fish Pollack which came in a packet of 6 large fillets, no one was eating them so I thought use them up and make some gefilte Fish I prefer the fried version this is the only way I would eat a fish cake.

Before we go any further I would like to point out that you will notice some recipes are measured by The American Cups I find it easier to use this method than weighing everything out, also it is quicker, it will also save time. Again my idea is to make the recipes as straight forward and without the reams of pages just to make up a meal from a book, also the same issues regarding salt etc I will leave to you as my taste will be different to yours. Not only that I have tried to make it simpler again by taking a few short cuts which will save time.

The most important thing about this book is it is strictly kosher hence the time it has taken me to ensure that all ingredients comply. I have just had a thought this book can also be used by the Asian community which in my humble opinion we should all work together and enjoy the diversity our religion brings, but I have noticed that when I have cooked and I mainly cook from my Austrian /Jewish background that people from other communities have either never heard or tasted the food.

To my surprise some do not like the thought of it and yes they were English but they are a minority but what pleases me is people will try something new and are pleasantly surprised, it is having a meal that brings people together after all we all have to eat don’t we? And in doing so brings people together from all backgrounds. All I can say is that we are all equal whatever background Religion we come from I have been through a lot but I will not go on as it will all be explained in
