Jewish Families Prepare Traditional Passover Food Jeanne Lesem By JEANNE LESEM United Press International New York-IUPD-The aroma of good cooking that wafts from a Jewish kitchen quick ens at Pass over, the spring festival of redemption that is the old est festival of this faith. Or so it al ways seemed to me as a child growing up on south ern American and traditional Jewish dishes. As in many modern Ameri can Jewish families, our year round diet contained foods other than those prepared un der rabbinical supervision and endorsement. So special Passover dishes were a treat for me during the eight day holiday period that begins this year on April 12. Even such familiar foods as chicken soup with knaid- Jach (silver dollar-size dump lings of matzo meal and eggs), chopped chicken liver, and kreplach (meat-filled noodle dough) in soup or gravy tast ed extra good. Use Matzos The biggest Passover diet ary change was the substitu tion of unleavened matzos for bread and any baked goods containing leavened flour, and the use of matzo meal (the consistency and appearance of white corn meal) in baking and cooking. Both meal and matzos-then flat wafers about 614-inches square-were a re minder of the exodus from Egypt, when the children of Israel fled in such haste that they had to bake bread before the dough had time to rise. Although matzos and meal are used all year, the un leavened Passover variety is prepared specially for the oc casion. And at our house, my ordinary scorn of breakfast would vanish at the prospect of matzo brie, matzos soaked In water, then squeezed dry and scrambled with eggs. The most festive meal of the holiday is the Seder, meaning the order of events making the ritual of the eve ning. Orthodox and Conserva tive Jewish families observe Seders on the first two nights of Passover; Reform Jews, only the first night. Ours always had the air of a family reunion, althoug.i the two or three families who celebrated together saw one another almost dally at our homes in Little Rock and North Little Rock, Ark Cooking was a co-operative affair, with my mother's gefilte fish (egg-shaped fish balls, usually served cold In their own aspic with a dish of horseradish) a special fa vorite of the grown-ups. They also asked for her borscht, beet soup served cold with a hot boiled potato. Likes Pot Roast But with typical childish dislike of unusual flavors, my taste ran more to pot roast or chicken, relishes and des serts. Particularly if mother's dill pickles, chopped chicken liver or matzo meal maca roons were available. Both sponge and walnut cakes also were favorites, sometimes i served with canned fruit. j Reproducing such dishes today in a small kitchen is not easy, especially when you're guided by the appear ance or "feel" of food instead of scientific measurements. But my only attempt at trans lating mother's gefilte fish recipe into measured terms was so disastrous (the fish balls disintegrated in the ! stock) that I've reverted to her good old-fashioned method using "just enough water to hold the dry ingredients to gether." 4 Attend Board Session A number of members of the Lions auxiliary of this area were in Taft April 6 for i the annual spring board meet ing.
