They probably have certain mixtures of spices that they use and it all
works out in the end. You certainly can't blame the cook for not
adding enough salt if no tasting is allowed.

Tomato aspic seems more disgusting than normal jello. However, I
think I'll make an old fashioned family dish that hasn't made it to
the table in years for this Easter. They're ordering bbq. I can't
think of a less sensitive time of year to eat bbq than Easter, so
jello salad won't ruin anything from my POV.

At one time gefilte fish was very popular in France. Only, they called
it quenelles and it was said you couldn't get a Michelin star without
quenelles on the menu. However, the French would serve them with lobster
sauce sauce (great!) so they were not kosher!

You don't think it would be less sensitive to eat barbecue on 9/11?

I generally eat a lot of hard boiled eggs and associated recipes on
Easter.

A freudian slip proving the anti-American baboon ass face was never a
member of the US military.

I watched the events of that morning live on tv. One of the cats
stepped on the remote control and turned the TV on and it was tuned in
to a news channel.

I knew as I watched it that I was watching many people die a horrible
death, and that that event would change all of our lives forever...

Anyone who served honorably in the US military would no more find
humor in the 9/11 event than they would the attack on Pearl Harbor....
think what you want but that LIAR was never in the US military, in
fact not anything he has ever posted here is true... not even the food
he claims to have cooked, trust me, he did not, one of his douchebag
california cronies did that TIAD slop.

Also the elderly and those who are ill. No life is meant to be
endangered during the fast.

The restaurants and cafes in my Muslim neighbourhood in London were
generally closed until sunset during Ramadan.

If the gefilte fish isn't made with permissible fish, it wouldn't be
kosher in the first place

Modern gefilte fish is basically the stuffing part of 'gefilte' without
the enclosing skin.

Of course it's not funny. It would be HORRIBLY insensitive to have a
barbecue on 9/11. That was my point.

Easter is a festival day. By Judeo-Christian tradition, you're SUPPOSED to
"kill the fatted calf" on days like that.

There was no shred of humor in what I wrote. Your assumption that humor was
intended shows that you are abysmally stupid.

You actually got me to laugh out loud with that "trust me". Trust YOU? A
scumbag whom I've exposed as a liar dozens if not hundreds of times? Nobody
in their right mind would even THINK of trusting you.

A few people saw my Facebook page during "retro" week, when I posted a
picture of myself in uniform during my Navy days. Are you going to make the
outlandish and demented claim that in 1994 I bought a Navy uniform (complete
with ribbons, medals, and warfare qualification pins), and had a photo taken
so that I could post it on Facebook sixteen years later? Are you THAT ****ed
in the head?

I believe quenelles were usually made with pike, quenelles de brochet,
but I haven't the slightest idea whether pike is kosher.

I don't think Pike is a bottom feeder.

Cod is a bottom feeder and it's kosher... bottom feeder has nothing to
do with kosher... "sf" is simply a *bottom*. LOL

Pike is definitely kosher, it's one of the more popular fish used for
gefilte fish.
