Happy Throwback Thursday and Simchat Torah! This week we take you back to 1968 and into the pages of Temple Israels Sisterhood Cookbook! Weve even included a couple timeless recipes. From the Temple Israel Sisterhood’s 1968 Fruit of Her Hands cookbook: _______________________________________________________ Cheese Knishes Dough: 3 cups flour ½ cup sugar ½ lb. butter ½ yeast cake or active dry yeast 1 cup sour cream 1 egg Filling: ½ lb. cream cheese 1 egg 1 Tbsp sugar Mix together. Mix flour and butter with tips of fingers or pastry blender, add rest of dough ingredients and from into dough. Refrigerate overnight. Next day remove from refrigerator, roll twice as wide as long, fold 1/3 of dough over middle third and fold over last third (looks like a book), press edges together and turn dough so that folded part is toward you, roll again and repeat folding. Cut pastry in half, roll out, cut into squares, fill with cheese and foldover and pinch edges firmly together. Place on greased baking pan. Bake in 350 degree oven until nicely browned. Serve with sour cream. _______________________________________________________ Potato Knishes 2 cups flour ½ tsp. baking soda 7 Tbs. Spry ¼ tsp. baking powder ¼ tsp. salt ½ cup warm water 1 Tbs. sugar 1 egg Sift together flour, baking powder, soda, salt, sugar, add egg well beaten, Spry, and warm water. Mix and let stand for 1-1 ½ hours. Then cook 4 potatoes and mash fine; ¼ lb. liver broiled, and ground together with onion that has been fried in any fat. Add egg well beaten and blend all together. Roll cut dough, and cut into small squares, place portions of potato and meat mixture in center. Bring edges together and seal firmly. Place in greased pan. Bake for 15 minutes at 400 degrees, reduce heat to 350 degrees and bake until golden brown. _______________________________________________________ Make sure to check out guest author Laura Silver and her new book Knish - Jewish Soul Food.
