Commenter Memories Number 76-Ricpic's new diet is not kosher!


I mean it is Kosher but something isn't right.

Maybe he needs a little yiddisher pickel.

At the risk of beating a story to death it turns out, at least according to the Post, that the mutual stabbings in Brooklyn were not personal but about business. The Post states that "Geritano has been linked to the Genovese family, and sources said the attack may have been the family's bidding" after Iacono allegedly refused to ante up protection money. Sources said. So who knows why what happened happened. Nevertheless my long held belief that a pastrami sandwich at Hymie's Deli is a safer bet than the anchovy special at Lucali pizzeria still stands.

I hear it has to do with a girl but the papers always love to pin it on the Mafia.

Markie has a relationship with someone as he has guy on his payroll who is on house arrest. There were a lot of stories about how this guy was actually doing his mob business when he was supposed to be working for him. You can google it. If he had a problem with those guys they would have a sitdown. Plus my neighborhood is all Colombo's and Gambino's. The Genovese family is not allowed. Just sayn'

So, um...ricpic?

I'm pretty damn hungry for that ham hoagie. Of course, since we're eating at Troop's deli? It just might be smoked turkey.

Here's how I see it. How about you offer me a bite. If it's ham? I'll eat the rest. If it's turkey? I'll pass it back to you.

By coincidence I just picked up a box of Holyland Matzos from my local Trader Josephs- kosher and imported from Israel.

When I was growing up Wisconsin there was only one Jewish family. They were a big family and I used to hang around the boy in my grade. He used to bring matzos to school and share them with us other kids.

I wanted to introduce my kids to ethnic food besides Mexican and I also figured than If I'm going to eat carbs it might as well be without the salt and fat. Plus Trader Joseph's had them attractively displayed near the register. I also bought a dozen eggs for my kids to color.

So what's the saltiest, fattiest thing I could put on matzos? What is good on matzos?

Well the best thing for matzo is of course matzso ball soup of which the stock is....how can I put it delicately.....chicken.

A great breakfast for your kids or for you is Matzo Brei. It's Jewish french toast. Beat up as many eggs as you like in a bowl. Take the big matzo boards and break them up into little pieces and throw them into the bowl, enough pieces to absorb most of the egg. Salt and pepper to taste. Slide the whole mess into a hot pan greased with butter or oil, doesn't matter that much. Turn with spatula when browned on one side, brown other side and serve. Great with jam, maple syrup, you name it.

I have a lot of Jewish New Yorkers who work on What Not to Wear and when they come to film I always get bagels from Brooklyn Bread which they swear are the best bagels they ever had.

What's funny is that Brooklyn Bread is owned by a Mafia guy who runs the neighborhood and is not the one who ownes the bagel store where one of the guys works. That is Bagels on the Park. A bunch of guys who hung out there were pinched a couple of years ago on gun charges. You can look it up.

Here is a link to the rest of the story.

Matzi Brei is some great stuff. Great after a night with a young jewish lady who is cooking you breakfast the next morning.

(In my single days of course.)

Really? What a pity.

Pink fish is for pussies.

Or so I've been told...

They are all pink on the inside.

Thanks for the recipe ricpic! I'm going to make Matzo Brei on Saturday. We already went through a box of them so I'll have to pick up another.
