BEST GEFILTE FISH



Best Gefilte Fish image

The following recipe is from somebody's Mother's mother and grandmother because let's face it, there should be a more-palatable option than eating that dreadful fish-en-gelee out of a jar.

Provided by SomebodysMothers

Categories     Seafood     Fish

Time 5h40m

Yield 6

Number Of Ingredients 15

2 pounds red snapper - head, skin, and bones removed and reserved
1 pound speckled trout - head, skin, and bones removed and reserved
2 quarts water
1 onion
1 teaspoon salt
½ teaspoon ground white pepper
1 pinch white sugar, or more to taste
1 onion, chopped fine
3 eggs, beaten, or more as needed
⅓ cup water, or as needed
1 tablespoon matzo meal, or as needed
2 teaspoons salt
1 teaspoon white sugar
½ teaspoon ground white pepper
1 carrot, sliced into rounds

Steps:

  • Grind snapper meat and trout meat in a meat grinder set to the smallest grind. Process fish meat through the grinder again.
  • Place reserved fish heads, skin, and bones in a large pot. Add water, onion, 1 teaspoon salt, 1/2 teaspoon white pepper, and 1 pinch white sugar; bring mixture to a boil and cook until flavors combine, at least 30 minutes. Strain and discard fish heads, skin, bones, and onion. Return broth to the pot.
  • Beat ground fish, eggs, onion, water, matzo meal, 2 teaspoons salt, 1 teaspoon sugar, and 1/2 teaspoon white pepper in a large bowl with an electric mixture until mixture is soft and holds together. Using wet hands, form fish mixture into oblong 1-inch balls.
  • Gently drop fish balls into broth, adding more water as necessary to completely cover all of the fish. Cover the pot and bring to a boil; reduce heat, uncover the pot, and simmer until stock has reduced by half, about 2 1/2 hours.
  • Place a steamer insert into a saucepan and fill with water to just below the bottom of the steamer. Bring water to a boil. Add carrot rounds, cover, and steam until tender but firm to the bite, 6 to 10 minutes.
  • Carefully remove fish to a serving dish. Place 1 carrot slice on top of each fish ball. Pour broth over the fish balls and set aside to cool to room temperature.
  • Cover dish with plastic wrap and refrigerate until broth gels, at least 2 hours.

Provided by Michael Solomonov

Categories     main-dish

Time 1h45m

Yield serves 8 as an appetizer

Number Of Ingredients 33

1 cup white distilled vinegar (see Cook's Note)
1/2 cup sugar
1 tablespoon kosher salt
3 large carrots, peeled and sliced thin
1/2 cup olive oil
3 red bell peppers, diced
1 green bell pepper, diced
2 medium tomatoes, diced
1 yellow onion, diced
1 tablespoon kosher salt
1/4 cup tomato paste
2 tablespoons smoked sweet paprika
1 teaspoon hot paprika
1/4 cup sugar
1 tablespoon red wine vinegar
1/2 cup Spanish olives, chopped
Olive oil, as needed
2 celery stalks, finely diced
1 red onion, finely diced
1 green pepper, finely diced
1 red bell pepper, finely diced
1 teaspoon kosher salt
1/2 teaspoon ground white pepper
1 pound boneless skinless striped bass, preferably wild-caught, diced
1/2 cup matzo meal
1/4 cup chopped fresh dill
1/4 cup chopped fresh flat-leaf parsley leaves
2 large eggs, beaten
Fresh lemon juice
Olive oil
1/4 cup fresh dill
1/4 cup fresh cilantro leaves
Pinch espelette pepper

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 300 degrees F.
  • For the pickled carrots: Heat the vinegar, sugar, salt and 1 cup water in a small saucepan over high heat and bring to a boil. Place the sliced carrots in a large mason jar. Pour the hot pickling liquid over the carrots and let cool. Refrigerate, covered, at least 30 minutes and up to 10 days.
  • For the red pepper stew: Warm the olive oil in a large Dutch oven over medium heat. Add the peppers, tomatoes, onions and salt and cook until the vegetables are softened, about 15 minutes. Add the tomato paste and continue to cook for 3 to 4 minutes, stirring frequently. Add the sweet paprika, hot paprika, 2 cups water, sugar and red wine vinegar. Bring to a boil, then turn off the heat and let cool 5 minutes.
  • For the gefilte fish: Heat a splash of olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Saute the celery, onions and peppers with the salt until the vegetables are slightly softened and translucent, about 5 minutes. Transfer the vegetables to a large bowl, stir in the white pepper and let cool to room temperature, about 10 minutes.
  • Meanwhile, pulse the bass in a food processor three to six times until it is coarsely chopped. Add the fish to the bowl with the vegetables and mix together by hand to incorporate. Add the matzo meal, dill, parsley and eggs and mix to combine.
  • Add two large spoonfuls of the red pepper stew to the bottom of a baking dish to keep the fish from sticking. Using wet hands, form the fish mixture into about sixteen 2-ounce patties that are about 2 inches in diameter and place them in the baking dish. Spoon the red pepper stew over the gefilte fish, then sprinkle the chopped olives over top. Bake until the fish is cooked through, about 30 minutes.
  • Serve the gefilte fish at room temperature. Garnish with the pickled carrots, a squeeze of fresh lemon juice, olive oil, fresh dill and cilantro and the espelette pepper.

2 large eggs
6 tablespoons matzoh meal
6 tablespoons cold water
1/2 teaspoon kosher salt
Pinch freshly ground black pepper
1/2 to 1 teaspoon unflavored gelatin, as needed
Red and white horseradish

Steps:

  • To make the stock, place all the ingredients for the stock except the carrot slices in a two-quart souffle dish. Cover tightly with microwave plastic wrap. Cook at 100 percent power in a high-power oven for 30 minutes. Prick plastic.
  • Remove from oven. Uncover and strain. Pour half of the stock back into dish. Set remaining broth aside. Add sliced carrots to the cooking dish. Cook, covered, for 10 minutes. Prick plastic to release steam.
  • Remove from oven and uncover. Set aside.
  • To make the fish mixture, place the fillets and onion in a food processor. Process until smooth. Add the remaining ingredients except gelatin and horseradish and process just until combined. Refrigerate until cold. With damp hands, shape mixture into eight plump ovals, about 1/4 cup each.
  • Arrange the ovals in spoke fashion around the edge of a 14-by-11-by-2-inch oval dish. Remove carrots from broth with a slotted spoon and place in center of dish. Pour broth from the dish over all. Cover tightly with microwave plastic wrap, leaving a small vent in one corner. Cook for 10 minutes. Prick plastic.
  • Place a small plate in the freezer (to use later to test gel of stock).
  • Remove fish from oven. Uncover, and turn each piece over. Let fish cool in the broth for 30 minutes.
  • Test the jelly by pouring a spoonful of broth onto the cold plate. Place the plate in the freezer for 1 minute. Broth should be firm. If it is not, place the reserved broth in a bowl and sprinkle 1/2 teaspoon gelatin on top. Let stand for 2 minutes. Stir well and repeat test with chilled plate. If broth is still not firm, add another 1/2 teaspoon gelatin and repeat test.
  • Place gefilte fish in the smallest deep container that can hold it in one layer. Cover with all of the broth. Chill fish and broth at least 24 hours.
  • Serve gefilte fish chilled, with some of the jelled broth and carrots. Pass horseradish in a separate bowl.

GEFILTE FISH



Gefilte Fish image

My mother-in-law took great pains to prepare Gefilte Fish for Passover and Rosh Hashanah. The best legacy she left was to teach her sons how to do it and in turn they would teach their wives and then the next generation. This has been passed down and today it is still appreciated as the Mintz Family Gefilte Fish.

Time 2h35m

Yield 8

Number Of Ingredients 17

1 ½ pounds salmon fillets
1 ½ pounds red snapper fillets
1 pound black cod fillets
1 pound ling cod fillets
2 ½ large onions
4 carrots
5 eggs
1 ½ tablespoons white sugar
4 teaspoons salt
4 teaspoons ground white pepper
¾ cup matzo meal
¾ cup ice water
2 onions
2 carrots
½ teaspoon paprika
½ teaspoon ground black pepper
¼ cup white sugar

Steps:

  • Grind the fish, 2 1/2 onions and 4 carrots together. Place fish mixture in a wooden bowl. Using a hand chopper, add eggs one at a time. Add 1 1/2 tablespoons sugar, 4 teaspoons salt and white pepper and continue to chop until very well blended. Stir in the ice water a little at a time throughout this process. Add matzo meal and chop again. Check to see if mixture is thick enough to bind together to make an oval gefilte fish ball and if not add in more matzo meal.
  • Meanwhile, fill two large heavy stock pots half full of water . Into each pot slice one raw onion and one sliced carrot. Add fish skins, if desired. Sprinkle in paprika, salt, black pepper and two tablespoons of sugar. Bring to a boil over medium heat and let boil for 10 minutes.
  • With wet hands shape the fish balls and carefully drop into boiling stock. Cover slightly and cook over medium-low heat for 2 hours. When done, let fish sit in the pot for 10 minutes, then remove pieces carefully to containers and strain remaining stock over fish balls, just barely covering them. Chill and serve. They will now keep in the refrigerator for up to 6 days.

GEFILTE FISH



Gefilte Fish image

Provided by Sharon Lebewohl

Categories     Egg     Fish     Onion     Vegetable     Passover     Sukkot     Rosh Hashanah/Yom Kippur     Chill     Kosher     Boil

Yield Makes 12

Number Of Ingredients 16

For the gefilte fish balls
1 (1 1/2-pound) fillet of whitefish and (1 1/2-pound) fillet of carp or pike (at fish store, ask for whole fish, filleted and skinned. Retain the heads and bones. Many stores will also grind the fish for you)
2 large onions (about 2 cups when grated; don't tamp it down)
1 stalk celery
1/2 medium carrot
6 eggs, beaten
4 teaspoons sugar
2 1/2 teaspoons salt
3/8 teaspoon pepper
3/4 cup corn oil
1 cup matzo meal
For the cooking
Heads and bones from fish
4 medium onions, peeled and quartered
2 stalks celery, trimmed and chopped into 3-inch pieces
2 medium carrots, peeled

Steps:

  • 1. In a food processor or grinder, grind fish (refrigerate heads and bones for later use), 2 onions, 1 stalk celery, and half a carrot. (If you use a food processor, make sure you leave no large pieces of fish or bones; you may want to transfer the mixture, bit by bit, into a wooden bowl, and go over it vigorously with a hand chopper.)
  • 2. Place fish mixture in a large bowl, and add eggs, sugar, salt, pepper, and corn oil, mixing thoroughly with a wire whisk. Stir in matzo meal, and continue to mix until everything is thoroughly blended. Refrigerate for 1 hour or more (longer, even overnight, is better).
  • 3. Fill 2 large stockpots three-quarters full of water, and bring to a vigorous boil. In each, throw in half the fish heads and bones, 2 onions, half the celery, and a carrot. Divide batter into 12 patties of equal size. (Don't worry that your batter is a little loose; it has to be that way to keep your gefilte fish light.) Transfer each patty to a large cooking spoon, shape into an oval, and very gently lower it into the boiling water. Put 6 in each pot. Lower heat and simmer for 1 1/2 hours.
  • 4. Remove fish balls and carrots from pots, and refrigerate on a covered plate. Discard everything else. Serve chilled with red and/or white horseradish. Slice carrots for garnish.

MY MOM'S LEGENDARY GALICIANER (SWEET) GEFILTE FISH



My Mom's Legendary Galicianer (Sweet) Gefilte Fish image

My mother's gefilte fish is the stuff of legends. We have tried to reproduce it for years, with little success. We have watched her make it, measured, copied, you name it. Still, it is just not the same as the fish my mom makes. Hers is so delicious, even to people who just despise gefilte fish, that friends and family members will travel across the continent to have some. A tough act to follow. That said, here is the best approximation of my mom's classic fish that I can come up with. At least for now. I hope your family loves it as much as we do.

Categories     Whitefish

Time 2h30m

Yield 16 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 14

2 lbs white fish fillets, ground
3 large onions, ground into the fish
6 extra large eggs
2 1/2 teaspoons salt (approx)
3/4-1 cup sugar (no, this is not a typo)
5 dashes black pepper
2 -2 1/2 cups matzo meal (more or less)
2 small onions, sliced
2 carrots, sliced on a diagonal
salt
pepper
sugar
fish bones (optional)
water

Steps:

  • Mix together fish, onions, eggs, salt, sugar, pepper until very thoroughly blended.
  • If you are my mother, or not as squeemish as her daughter, you taste it at this point (yes, raw) and adjust seasonings to taste. If you are me, you just pray that it is well-seasoned and move on.
  • Add matzo meal slowly, mixing very very well, until it is almost thick enough to shape into balls, but just a bit softer. (How's that for imprecise?).
  • Cover the bowl, and refrigerate for at least one hour, or even overnight.
  • At this point, you can shape the mixture into balls or loaves and freeze for future use, but no one ever does because deferring this gratification for that long is just impossible.
  • Make the broth: In a large soup pot, mix the broth ingredients.
  • Bring to a boil, then simmer for at least 30 minutes or so. It should be sort of golden in color. Taste to adjust seasoning. The broth should be sweet and a little salty.
  • Form the fish mixture into balls, cylinders, loaves -- whatever.
  • Add to broth, bring to a boil again, and then lower to a very slow boil for 1 hour and 15 minutes.
  • Cool. Eat. Enjoy.

Tips:

  • Choose the right fish: For the best results, use a firm-fleshed fish, such as carp, pike, or whitefish.
  • Soak the matzo meal: Soaking the matzo meal in water before adding it to the fish mixture will help to create a smooth, cohesive texture.
  • Season the fish mixture well: Don't be afraid to add plenty of salt, pepper, and other spices to the fish mixture. This will help to enhance the flavor of the gefilte fish.
  • Poach the fish gently: Poaching the fish gently in a flavorful broth will help to keep it moist and tender. Avoid boiling the fish, as this will toughen it.
  • Serve the gefilte fish with your favorite accompaniments: Gefilte fish is traditionally served with horseradish, beet horseradish, and/or a sweet and sour sauce. You can also serve it with boiled potatoes, carrots, or parsnips.

Conclusion:

Gefilte fish is a delicious and versatile dish that can be enjoyed by people of all ages. With its delicate flavor and tender texture, it's a perfect meal for any occasion. Whether you're making it for a holiday dinner or a simple weeknight meal, gefilte fish is sure to please everyone at the table.
