Izzy's Traditional Jewish Recipes

Back




Izzy originally from Poland, is an amazing person who spent from age 18 to 24 in German concentration camps doing slave labor, including Auschwitz. Never having had more then a 7th grade education he was liberated in 1945 with nothing more then the clothes he was given, yet he stayed in Germany and became a millionaire there while still in his thirties. In 1964 he came to the US and continued doing business here. Now at 85 he is retired doing the snowbird thing and doing his favorite thing, cooking. Everybody who has tasted his food raves about it, and everyone who knows him thinks he is a real character. Just for a taste here are his Potato Latkes available at www.simonsezproduction.com and Ebay This is a 2 volumes, 2 discs DVD of Auschwitz survivor Izzy cooking up a storm in his kitchen. Watch him make Gefilte Fish, Chicken Soup, Lockschen Kugel, Potato Kugel, Potato Latkes, Horse Raddish, Brisket & Veal, Chicken Dish, Matze Brei and Butter Crumb Cake. Everything you need for the holidays. I've eaten this food and words can't describe it. Don't buy gefilte fish out of a jar make it from scratch, and you've never had chicken soup like this before. No wonder Izzy has so much energy at 85. He's quite a character and fun to watch. This is truly food from the good old days and you can watch it being made. How easy is that to follow? Now more recipes added: Izzy's Cookies and Baking Dough, Apple Cake, Goulash, and Cucumber Salad. (The Goulash is my favorite) and really simple to make.

Gulas is obviously not authentic hungarian cuisine. It's gypsy.

Not really, brother. Gypsys have a similar stuff, but it's not the same at all. It contains different indigredients. Gulash was first made by cattle stockmen. Believe me, it's not gypsy, but almost every food have theire own kind for gypsys too, on theire own taste but they don't have traditional gypsy kitchen or foods. They preferred the foods that were made easily open-air. שנה טובה וגמר חתימה טובה ,אחי

שנה טובה Gypsy food is any food that has a steady guitar rythm in the background. :)
