Thread: Gefilte Fish ????!!!! Passover for a confused Christian .

Bill, my Great Grandmother made it from Pike as well. Either way, it is much different when made fresh. My daughter was home for the holidays and left me with a huge pot of home made matzo ball soup. Tastes just a little better when made by a daughter. I'm glad one of them took to cooking and learned from her Great Grandmother and Grandmother .

Thanks Mvcrash. You jogged my memories. I now remember that my Mother would use a blend of Whitefish and Pike, and I'm sure there were another type of fish or two also. Grew up in a small family grocery store. Until it got to much of a chore and burden she would make a huge pot of Gefilte Fish every Friday. It wasn't very much of a Jewish neighborhood, but predominantly Catholic and fish on Friday was still strong back then. It was a popular item.
