Four Kosher Recipes by Zomick's

In today article, food experts from Zomick’s bakery, located in Inwood, share four delicious recipes.  

Boios

Ingredients Mass:

1/2 kg of flour

1 1/4 glass of water

3/4 glass of oil

1/2 tablespoon of salt

Stuffing ingredients:

2 packages of chard

1 cup of grated cheese

2 tablespoons of flour

salt and pepper

Preparation:

Experts from Zomick's recommend firstly, to place the salt and flour in a bowl and add water until a soft and elastic mass is obtained.

Than make a bun and let it rest for 3 hours. Divide the dough into two parts. Stretch until you get a mass not very thin (30 cm in diameter).

Let it rest another half hour. Then, anoint the table with oil and stretch the dough until it is like a paper.

Sprinkle with flour and sprinkle with oil. Then fill it.

Wash and chop the chard and then let it soak for two hours. Dry them well and sprinkle with the flour and 3 tablespoons of grated cheese.

Add the seasonings. Sprinkle the dough with oil and sprinkle with flour and grated cheese. Cut strips and fill each strip (a spoonful of stuffing at the end of each strip) and wind.

Put in a roasting pan and sprinkle with cheese and oil.

According to the experts working for Zomick's, the Boios should be cooked in a strong oven 25 minutes approximately.

Humus

Ingredients:

1 can of chickpeas

3 garlic cloves

lemon juice

sesame paste 20 gr approximately

Salt

Pepper

ground chili

parsley

oil

Preparation:

Process or liquefy the chickpeas, with 1/4 of the water of the can, (the rest of the water can be thrown away), along with the garlic, the sesame paste, salt, pepper, and the juice of half a lemon, 1 pinch of ground chili. From Zomick's point out that the consistency should be like that of a puree, leave it covered in the refrigerator, and serve it with a little chopped parsley and a tablespoon of oil. The Humus is eaten with Arabic bread or Challah bread.

Quince Sweet

Ingredients:

Quinces

Sugar

Water

Preparation:

Put all quinces (well washed and without the trunks) in boiling water. Boil them for about half an hour and let them cool in the cooking water. Then peel and cut them into medium pieces. In the water in which the quinces were boiled, put the husks and seeds. Weigh the quince cut into pieces and put the same amount of sugar. Cover with water and bring to a boil over low heat until the point is taken. The sweet is turning garnet and thickening. The main chief from Zomick's recommends not to stir or if you do it, to do it very softly only with wooden spoon, since the metal spoons cause the sweet quince to crystallize.
