Hopped Up Homemade Paprika Herring

                                quilted table runner: Terry Mischel's Handmade Quilts

We had this for shabbat kiddush last week and it was super. You need to pick up a basic matjes at the market-- try to find a well filleted and less salty version.

-finely chop two medium onions

-re-cut the matjes into smaller pieces

-add canola oil

-add in some garlic powder and onion powder

-add a little black pepper

-then add alot of paprika

If you want to switch it up, this is a great way to go...........

Fyvush Finkel Knows Herring

Fyvush Finkel, star of Yiddish theater, television, and Broadway says:

" I don’t plan to retire; they’ll have to retire me. I want to re-open my revue, Fyvush Finkel Live! My dream is it should have an open-end run, that it should last a while, and people would come to see it.

At the age of 90, I want to make sure that my children are well taken care of when I’m not around, and to guide them, be around, keep them company. And my health! You’ve got to watch the way you eat. My doctor yells at me: “You’ve got to learn to eat like an 80 year old man! You can’t eat like you’re 20!” I watch my diet, try to lower my cholesterol. But of course, every now and then I take a steak. Don’t forget, I‘m Jewish, you gotta have a steak.  And herring. Once in a while, you have to cheat a little."
