Haroses - a mixture of coarsely grated apples, cinnamon, red wine and chopped nuts (I use walnuts).

Bubbelah - a Passover pancake, basically egg yolks beaten until thick, mixed with milk, salt and pepper, matzo meal (finely crushed matzo) and then folded into beaten egg white. Then dropped into a buttered pan and fried like a pancake on both sides. There is a real art to making these.

Sinkers vs. Floaters - Matzo balls (knaidlach) are normally made in 2 variations - sinkers - which are more dense and "sink" to the bottom of the soup bowl and -floaters - lighter, airer, fluffier and "float" on the top of the soup bowl. Pink - I have perfected an "in-between" matzo ball, so everyone is happy!!

So that in a nutshell should answer your Passover menu questions. Stay tuned, if you're good, we can tell you about Potato kugel and farfel stuffing...

all the best
