This recipe sounds amazing. Do you have one for brisket?

My grandmother is a Hungarian Survivor but she rejected much of her Judaism. I subscribed to your newsletter as I thought food might be a good doorway to connecting with some of my heritage. I’m loving it so far!

Thank you so much for being here! This is my favorite brisket recipe, it comes from my book Modern Jewish Cooking. https://leitesculinaria.com/104031/recipes-braised-brisket-red-wine-honey.html

Thank you so much Leah. Is your book available in the UK or on Kindle? I would love it!

Those tacos look amazing, and what a great use for leftovers! I would love to make brisket for RS, or even chicken, but with a vigilant vegetarian in the family, everything goes more smoothly when meat and fish aren't around. So here's my leftover hack: make extra matzah balls and then use them as dumplings in mushroom stew or tossed with some other roasted veggies that are lightly spiced and sauced. They would also make excellent 'chicken n' dumplings,' I assume, though I've never made it.

You are kind to accommodate your family member! Meanwhile, matzo ball chicken and dumplings sounds very promising.
