Kishke and Stuffed Helzel
No list of traditional Jewish
dishes would be complete, just
as no traditional Jewish meal is
complet e, without Kishke or
Stuffed Helzel. These heart y,
savory morsels are always greeted
with expressions of rapture. To
prepare Stuffed Helzel (it is also
called "Elzel") at home takes
just a few extra minutes, but it
must be admitted that preparing
the Kishke is a labor of love.
However, like all labors of love,
the satisfaction gained more than
repays the effort.
Directions for preparing Kishke
are detailed, and each part must
be carefully followed, so let's
proceed at once to the recipe for

KISHKE— STUFFED DERMA
3 feet of narrow, or 1 foot of large
beef casings
7 /8 cup sifted all-purpose flour
4 tablespoons farina
1 teaspoon paprika
2 /4 teaspoon salt, to taste
1 /8 teaspoon black pepper
2 /3 cup finely ground raw chicken fat
or beef suet
1 1/2 tablespoons grated onion
1/2 teaspoon garlic powder
For easier handling, cut the narrow
casings into 12-inch lengths. On the
outside you will find bits of fat. Remove
all of them very carefully without
tearing the casings. Then wash the
outsides thoroughly. Now turn the cas-
ings inside-out. A helpful suggestion for
doing this is to start by folding one
end inside. Then let water from the
faucet run into this end of the casing.
At the same time gently keep turning
in the sides. Now gently but thoroughly
scrape and clean the inside of the
casing, which has become the outer
side. Sew up one end of each piece.
Mix all the remaining ingredients to-
gether until well-blended to use as the
filling. Lightly fill each piece of casing.
If you use your hands, flour them lightly
before handling the filling. Do not
pack tightly as the filling swells as it
cooks. Sew up the open end of each
casing. Place in boiling water to cover,
and simmer for 45 minutes. Drain off
the liquid, and examine the casings
again to be sure that they are absolutely
clean. If any spots do show, remove
them gently. At this point the kishke
may be completed, or it may be cooled
and frozen for future use.
To complete the kishke, if it has
been frozen, thaw it completely at room
temperature. Whether it was frozen and
thawed, or completed at the time of
preparation, prick the outside all over
with a needle to permit excess melted
fat to escape and prevent greasiness.
The Kishke may be placed in a pan
of roasting chicken or meat, and cooked
with it for 11/2 hours at 325° F., or it
may be cooked by itself. To roast it
alone, melt 1/4 cup of chicken fat in a
shallow roasting pan and arrange 2
large, sliced, peeled onions evenly hi
the fat. Place the Kishke on the onions.
Roast uncovered at 350° F. for 1 hour,
until the casing is well-browned. Baste
twice with the fat in the pan. Cut
narrow casings into pieces about 1 1/2
inches long, and the large ones into
pieces about 3/4 inches long. Serve very
hot with the main course. Slices of
large kishke topped with tomato sauce
are also served as an appetizer. This
amount makes 5 to 6 portions. The
recipe may be increased as desired.

Leningrad-Kirov Ballet
to Perform in Israel
TEL AVIV (JTA) — The cele-
brated Leningrad-Kirov Ballet
company arrived in Israel for three
weeks of performances with the
Israel Philharmonic. The gala
premiere, a full-length performance
of Tchaikovsky's Swan Lake, was
held at the Mann Auditorium here
Monday night.
The Israel Communist news-
paper, Kol Haam, reported that
an expansion of Israeli-Soviet cul-
tural relations had been approved
in talks in Moscow between Soviet
officials and Mrs. Margot Klaus-
ner, a film producer active in the
Israel-Soviet Friendship League.
The agreement reportedly in-
cludes plans for a joint Soviet-
Israel medical symposium, an ex-
change of art materials and an
exhibit of Soviet graphic arts at
the Tel Aviv Museum.
While we have prisons it matters
little which of us occupy the cells.

of them, as well as the man-

by the Zionist Organization of
Detroit, at the ZOD House,
18501 W. 10 Mile Rd., South-

Founded in 1935, the Israel
team played in the Third League.
After a few years they were pro-
moted to the National Football
League, where they made impres-
sive achievements, especially dur-
ing the last few years.
In 1955-56, they became the Na-
tional League Champions, for the
first time in Hapoel Petah-Tik-
vah's history.
In 1956-57, they were the run-
ners-up in the League, while win-
ning the State Cup for that year.
In the following year, they were
once again runners-up to the
League Champions.
During the years from 1958-59
to 1962-63, they were the National
League Champions for 5 consecu-
tive years.
They finished in third place
last year and this year they will
finish among the first three teams;
the final placing will be known
only after the last game of the
League.
"All the players grew up and re-
ceived their sporting education in
our club, and we feel that this is
the main secret of our success,"
the trainer, M. Shmilovitz, stated.

Mon Levinson Show Due
at Franklin Siden Gallery
The 1965-66 art season will open
at the Franklin Siden Gallery, 213
David Whitney Building, Monday
with an exhibition of new works
by Mon Levinson.
This newcomer is honored with
his first one-man show since repre-
sentation in the Museum of Mod-
ern Art's "The Responsive Eye"
exhibition last spring in which sev-
eral young and unheralded artists
gained world-wide recognition.
While several examples in Levin-
son's exhibit relate directly to the
Optical Art movement, other works
are uninfluenced by any specific
art trends of the recent past. His
medium is paper, vinyl acetate and
plexiglas. Almost all of the works
are small in scale, yet bear great
"presence."
Although the exhibit at the
Franklin Siden Gallery is his first
in Detroit, this New York-born
artist has been represented in num-
erous museum exhibitions, includ-
ing the Houston Contemporary Art
Museum, Chicago Art Institute and
the Albright-Knox.
The exhibit will continue until
Oct. 8.
