We have received a number of
compliments from readers on the
“Onion KicheP’ recipes that ap
peared several weeks ago in this
column. Mrs. J. Kleinman of 876
Paxson Rd., Cleveland, 0. writes:
“My mother is of the old school,
a ‘zhemnyi’ this and that. She
gave me these instructions for
making her kind of Zwiebel
Platzlach ... I haven’t tried the
recipe myself . . .
Well, the recipe has been tried
out and here it is, with a few
modifications instead of the
“fistful of this and that”: You’ll
enjoy the basic recipe and the
variations, we feel certain.

packed

M-m-m! Such a heavenly cake! Its
taste and tender texture are out of
this world — yet it’s always at your

Use the onion juice, if it is not
more than 2 tablespoonfuls, in
combining with the sifted ingre
dients. Sift together the flour,
baking powder, salt and pepper
if used, into a large mixing bowl.
Make a well in the center and
add the minced onion. Stir a lit
tle flour with it. Beat the eggs
slightly in a measuring cup and
stir in a half cup salad oil. Add
enough warm water to fill the
cup, stir into the other mixture
to form a dough stiff enough to
handle but too dry. If more mois
ture is required, use the onion
juice a little at a time. Turn out
the ball of dough on a lightly
floured kneading board. Knead
till smooth and elastic. Roll or
pat the dough to Va inch thick
ness and cut the squares, or
rounds (with a cookie cutter or
wine glass). Arrange on a lightly
greased cookie sheet, prick each
“Pletzie” with the tines of a
fork in any design desired and
bake 25 to 30 minutes at 350°
F. or till lightly browned. Yields
36 to 48, depending on size.
VARIATION 1: Roll out dough
to Va inch thickness and cut into
2Vi inch rounds with a biscuit
cutter. Place a teaspoonful of
chopped liver in the center of
each, bring the edges together
making a seam on top from end
to end. Be sure to pinch the
dough together thoroughly, shap
ing each piece to two pointed
ends. Place on a greased cookie
sheet, brush with salad oil and
sprinkle with paprika or caraway
(kimmcl) seeds. Bake as in Basic
Receipe. Delicious with cocktails,
soups or salads.
VARil ATION 2: To serve with
a fish meal, make the filling of
mashed sardines, hard cooked
eggs finely chopped and combin
ed with 2 egg yolks (uncooked).
Add minced parsley if desired, or
a few drops of lemon juice for
additional flavor. Follow further
directions as in Var. 1.
