Filling the Blintzes All the blintzes -- thin, crisp and golden -- are ready. The filling is waiting. Now it's time to bring them together! - Place a generous spoonful of filling on a blintz, in the top third, and use your fingers to square up the filling (figure A).
- Fold top edge of blintz down over filling, then roll, tucking in the sides as you work (figure B).
- Use your fingers once again to coax the filled blintzes into a square shape ( figure C).
- With a spatula, flatten each blintz as much as possible (figure D).
- Brown in butter on both sides (figure E).
- Serve with sour cream and strawberries.
Eric Greenspan's Matzo Brei Eric Greenspan demonstrates one of his favorite breakfast treats, matzo brei, which he learned from his grandmother. Ingredients:
Two crumbled pieces matzo
1 c. water
Two eggs
Pinch salt
Pinch pepper
1. tsp. butter - Hydrate matzos by breaking them up and pouring warm water over them. Let sit for a few minutes.
- Meanwhile, beat two eggs.
- With your hands, dip the hydrated matzos out of the water and squeeze out as much excess water as possible (figure F).
- Place matzo in a bowl and add eggs (as a rule, use one egg per piece of matzo).
- Heat a generous amount of butter in a saute pan. Add the matzo mixture and let set (figure G).
- Brown the matzo mixture on both sides.
- Serve warm with jam and maple syrup.
