Do it for the kreplach
I've been thoroughly impressed by David Sax's single-mindedness in his attempt to Save the Deli in the US.
Deli, read Ashkenazi, food is a phenomena in the US, but has never reached the same vaulted position in the UK. If David thinks things are getting bad in the US, he should look at the UK. Well he did, and he liked what he saw. But can there be any doubt that what we have pales in significance to the US experience.
This video is the preview for the US edition of his forthcoming book. Having just watched it I'm hungry and drooling at all that pickled meat.
As the video reminds us, what the world needs now is schmaltz, sweet schmaltz, it's the only thing that there's just too little of. Other than gribenes, of course.





thats some serious salt beef....
