OUR DISHES HAND SELECTED
Matzoh Ball Stew
A Bernstein Family Tradition!
Years ago we used to call our Matzoh Ball a “big dumpling” because no one knew what a matzoh ball was. When we were growing up, matzoh balls were the benchmark of every Jewish cook’s abilities. Making light and fluffy matzoh balls (aka “floaters”) is a true art form. They generally have the predisposition to be “sinkers.” Years of eating and practicing has turned us into Matzoh Ball Mavens. PS – if you if want to give it a try on your own, you must use schmaltz – rendered chicken fat. There is NO substitute!
