We are pleased to announce that the Yiddish word of the day section is now complete along with a long time request to have Bubbe say the Yiddish words. After working very hard on figuring how this would be accomplished we are thrilled to announce that this has be completed.
We hope that you will enjoy this brand new feature as we continue to enhance and grow our website. More words will be showing up in the future. Thank you once again with everyone that has contributed to this momentous goal!

Episode Summary :
After thanksgiving, you have all those leftovers. What to do? Bubbe is here to the rescue for this leftover challenge!
Show Notes:
Fall is a time when the trees turn color. A season of thanks and gathering. What better way to celebrate the season then with a challenge for Bubbe!
The office of me.dium writes… “I’ve got a little proposition for you Bubbe. Me.dium is hosting a series of online events the week of November 26th called Me.Fest. Since most of our U.S. users will be feasting upon the remains of their Thanksgiving dinner, the events for Me.Fest are a mix of everything from new videos, music reviews, online shopping, sport analysis, political discussion, and the general craziness leading up to the holidays. We know Bubbe must have tons of great leftovers in that fridge, so it would be great to see what culinary recycling ideas you guys can come up with!”
Let’s see if Bubbe is up to the challenge! Today on Feed Me Bubbe! And the episode begins! YAY!
Here’s Bubbe with her use of leftovers and then Avrom just has to get in the act. On the back of the shirt it clearly says the words Geni! Avrom being the director he is seeing all the hidden inside jokes in all the movies decides to try his hand but fails miserably. Bubbe just has to call him out on it and wants to know what shirt is being worn. The shirt says “Who’s your daddy?” This shocks Bubbe! She continues reading how it says my father, my mother, me? What could this be all about?
Our fans over at Geni.com checked out our latest episode and we are giving them a shoutout for their wonderful website www.geni.com in which Bubbe figures out that geni must stand for genealogy! It all starts with the family tree. Make the family tree online free and simply, it’s facebook but it is within your own family and the best thing is that it is FREE! A secure way of keeping the family all together. Bubbe is concerned about the security of it all but it is private and secure. A perfect time of year to do this since families get together for parties and festivals. It is a chance to discuss and undertake a project like this. The Geni team watches Feed Me Bubbe at lunch! Awesome! As Avrom finishes talking about geni.com Bubbe kicks Avrom out of the kitchen and back to the camera.
As Bubbe was saying, she still is in hysterics that I interrupted the flow of the show. This just leading to her train of thought leaving the station and getting a bit lost. As Bubbe was saying, she was given a challenge from me.dium and Bubbe doesn’t want the ordinary leftovers. This is her recipe that she came up with for the challenge. The answer to thanksgiving leftovers is of course turkey egg rolls.
Bubbe starts up with the leftover meat from the turkey. This all is available in the recipe section of our website. Look at all that diced turkey. Tons of diced vegetables. Watch Bubbe slice that celery but at least make sure your knife is sharper then Bubbe’s.
Time to then grate a carrot, and the key to grating a carrot is to be careful. You know you need to watch your fingers. The vegetable oil gets added to the pan as the vegetables sizzle and sauté for several minutes. The turkey gets added into the mixture and gets to hang out with the rest of the dish. The finished mixture gets added to the bowl and so does the garlic powder get added so that they are mixed. Oh and here comes the egg and it all gets mixed binding all together.
Here comes the egg roll wrappers. You can get them at any grocery store since it is so thin and easy and it is a time savior. The great thing is that they don’t dry out, start out by adding 2 tbls. of the mixture and get ready to wrap it al up like origami. It’s all about folding one way, then the other way, then the other way, then the other way. Water acts as the sealer and the paste so that it won’t come apart. And that gives you the perfect turkey egg roll. Use whatever you have leftover for the dish.
Yiddish word of the day time and word is TSUZAMEN meaning together. This is the time of year when families get together. As Avrom tries his best to pronounce it and Bubbe gives Avrom the keys to pronunciation, be confident in trying it yourself. The way Bubbe helps is by saying it all in syllables.
After a quick mention from GoToMyPC.com/podcast time to get back to frying up the egg rolls. Normally we don’t like to make fried foods but we don’t do this all the time. Key here is seam side down. That is going to make them nice and crispy and tasty. And look at them as they get brown and nice and crispy as they all get turned around. The egg rolls are ready and brown on both sides and now we drain them out. And of course be careful since they are very hot.
Two different sauces of duck sauce or cranberry sauce and this even has a Bubbe touch to it of hot water being added into it to keep it a hot sauce when serving. This can be served with all of the leftover vegetables with pareve italian dressing on it and along with pareve sherbert or italian ices. It is a new recipe instead of the normal turkey pot pie. Bubbe decides to use the cranberry sauce while the other plate duck sauce. It is nice and hot! Sometimes add the white rice if you want to add a little bit extra to it all.
Cranberry sauce can be placed in a blender to help out. As Bubbe cuts one of the rolls open you can hear the crunchiness and see the chicken or in this case turkey. Bubbe then shows off her apron that she uses for the fall festivals. It’s a great picture of a scarecrow in the middle of the harvest. A special thanks to me.dium for giving off this challenge.
As the closing credits roll on we are visited by Dean himself from me.dium calling to thank us for letting us be part of another episode! It’s always fun for them. There is a great Me.Fest week coming up and you have to check that out. Listen to the end credits to hear the way Dean’s grandfather would make a greeting.

Episode Summary :
A cookie episode that is easy and fun to make with your kids.
Show Notes:
Time for the holidays, and that could only mean one thing… cookies! That being said this episode is brought to you by Stanley C. of Los Angeles.
Oh look at all of the dreidels! And oh the wonderful background music. Today we are going to make cookies. With all the festivals and holidays, what better to have then the holiday cookies! The children can take part in the cookies.
The jewish holiday of Chanukah was the time when the Jewish army conquered an ancient army. It’s not a religious event but more of a historical event. There was a little bit of oil left, it was brought back to the temple, and it burned for eight days. This is the reason why we celebrate Chanukah for eight days.
Now before we made episode #13 which was the potato latkes. But the emphasis today is on the children’s video. We hope that you will all join us in this. And the children should watch so that they will be able to do it also. Now we begin…
Oh but wait here is Avrom letting everyone know that they have visitors today on the show! Chow.com is joining us today for this very special episode. Time now for the cookie recipe. Bubbe wants to make sure that you know about making the dough ahead of time for the children.
Bubbe shows off her mother’s recipe with all of the pages torn showing you how they were used. We have 3 cups of flour available, and baking powder, and all the other ingredients to make the dough that you can find in the recipe section of this website.
Bubbe sifts the main ingredients together and shows us how she makes this all pareve. Pareve, so that it can be eaten with all types of different meals. The mixer is back for another appearance. It just spins, and spins, and spins. Spins just like a…. dreidel! You knew we were going to go there.
As the mixture get pebbly Bubbe stops it and then is going to do the rest by hand. The last bit of flour is mixed in as the dough is all put together to make a wonderful mixture. Cut into 3 different parts everything is all wrapped together. Remember this is all for making ahead of time so that you have it ready for the children.
Bubbe rolls it all with the rolling pan explaining a little tidbit that the thickness doesn’t matter much unless it is too thick. If it is too thick then the dough just won’t bake.
Now it’s time for the Yiddish Word of the Day! Bubbe interrupts and she decides to do Ask Bubbe. Unexpectedly Avrom agrees and decides to go with Bubbe for an Ask Bubbe segment. Bubbe had no idea how many young viewers are out there of the Feed Me Bubbe show. This makes Bubbe very proud and she wants to read the first three that she received.
Bubbe wants to give the recognition to the children since they deserve it and we hope that they take part in the festival and the Chanukah baking. Bubbe wants to make sure they take a look at the sweet and sour meatballs which is episode #3. Bubbe wants to make sure that they help out roll the meatballs and be a young host or hostess and do the serving. That makes the desert the cookies.
The first one comes from Alex and his Busia. It reads, “My name is Alex… and my Busia… (Polish for Grandmother) and I LOVE Your show!!! I am 8 years old and would like you to do a meal I could make with her. Something easy please….Busia helped with spelling. Take care of yourself, Bubbe. say hello to your grandson from this grandson. Your friend Alex….” This email was kept hidden from Avrom, what a lovely surprise.
Oh but wait there is more where that came from. The next one is from Timmy and Becky! They are waiting patiently for this episode. Well there you go, it’s been made! See what happens when you make a request!
We have a wonderful message from Rafi who shared a picture of Alice and Wendy. If you want to be a part of the fun be sure to email us or leave a voicemail message.
And now perhaps, I believe, yes, we have confirmation that it is time for THE YIDDISH WORD OF THE DAY! Well Bubbe interrupted the Yiddish Word of the Day so Avrom does a little bit of the same right back. Avrom brings in some flowers which Bubbe has to mention that the real gift is supposed to be Chanukah Gelt for the children while the adults have a good meal with the potato latkes.
Bubbe asks Avrom what the Yiddish word of the day is. Avrom stands there not really knowing what to say, so Bubbe takes it upon herself to give a special Yiddish word that is special for Alex. The Yiddish Word for friend is Fraynt.
Bubbe shows a picture of her mother with her children, and then Bubbe brought out the picture of Avrom making muffins. Avrom can’t believe that she still even has that on her in the first place. Bubbe then brings out the official Feed Me Bubbe t-shirt! And there is no picture on the children version of the shirts. Avrom then relates how $1 for ever t-shirt sold is going to help out the organization called mazon! Mazon helps out with hunger all over the world.
Bubbe really loves the color of it, a wonderful blue. We did our best to make these shirts at the lowest price point as possible. We got to thank everyone from the Video On the Net conference. We had fun going to the Roxy and we were on a panel. Bubbe felt very comfortable and a whole lot of questions were asked of us.
Bubbe shows us all of the cookie sheets and Bubbe shows all the different types of improvising. Also we get to see the aluminum foil trick. Don’t forget that you can bake your cookies right on top of the pan. Don’t go and spend more money, it is all about the improvise, it just allows you to do something different.
Cookie cutter time. Bubbe uses her cookie cutters and improvised items to make dreidel’s and Chanukah gelt shapes. As Bubbe gets into making the various shapes she lets us all know about the way it goes into the oven. She also shows us the egg white, and even Bubbe makes mistakes, so you should not worry about making mistakes. Just keep going and it will taste great.
Time for the jimmies, and the decorating. So many ways to decorate and even with chocolate jimmies. You could even use sugar and cinnamon. But did you know there is even colored sugar. This is the part the children enjoys. The decorated cookies are on the sheet but Bubbe is letting one of the ones go in the oven plain. Why could this be? Well you will find out how we are going to decorate it all special. This will be more fun then even just putting the sugars on.
Fast forward to the fun part for the children. With the help of icing we are going to do extreme decorating. We put some blue all the way around, a little dot for color, and then the yellow in the middle with a little design. Children please send your pictures of the way that you decorate it. Bubbe would love to see them.
A special thanks for Bill Averbach for the use of his music as performed by the Austin Klezmorim. Visit his website today, www.bamusic.net the latke recipe song was a beautiful song that all of us enjoyed. Thank you again.
Oh and of course we have a wonderful message from susan from Michigan, and she absolutely loves the website and the cooking. You just have to listen to this amazing message as it plays during the credits.

Episode Summary :
A succos treat that just can’t be beat!
Show Notes:
Thomas of New Berlin, WI, this episode is for you!
Thank you for your support of our program and we hope that you enjoy this wonderful stuffed cabbage episode!
Avrom brings everyone up to date on the latest emails that are requesting for stuffed cabbage. Ellen wants sweet and sour stuffed cabbage since her own Bubbe passed away many years ago.
And here comes the opening music! I love this part….
Bubbe is now ready to make the stuffed cabbage which is a favorite for everyone. It is harvest time since it is succos. Bubbe explains how cabbage is a vegetable from the earth and the combination of why stuffed cabbage is perfect for succos.
It has many names like… stuffed cabbage. Let’s not forget cabbage rolls, and the polish they call it… gowumpki. In Yiddish, because you didn’t think we would leave that out, it is holishkes. Like Ellen, Bubbe loves the sweet and sour sauce.
Bubbe got herself a semi-large head of cabbage, not wanting anything smaller then 3 - 3 1/2 pounds. The worst part of the process is preparing the cabbage and this is what Bubbe is working on now.
Step 1: Cut off the core and take those leaves off.
Step 2: Put it in the pot, got to let it steam.
Step 3: Read the real recipe in the recipe section where Bubbe makes it really easy to understand the process in full details.
Bubbe, always being prepared, had a smaller head already prepared and ready to go. You go Bubbe!
With the close of the pot cover, it is now time for THE YIDDISH WORD OF THE DAY!!!! And today Bubbe goes old school with the word HEYMISH which means traditional, homey, and friendly. It just gives you a heymish feeling. A good familiar family feeling. When you come to Bubbe’s home you get a heymish feeling.
Oh and an exciting announcement! Project ReadOn! We have the entire catalog now being transferred into closed captions. If you need that little extra gift, get a Feed Me Bubbe t-shirt. Only at feedmebubbe.com
The cabbage is out of the pot and on the plate ready for Bubbe to show you the next step. Bubbe throws down advice letting you know that you can do this all the day before or even two days before. It’s amazing how well the leaves peel off with no effort whatsoever.
And of course with any meal there are extras and Bubbe tells you exactly what to do with the extra cabbage. But with that it is now time for the main event, the filling of the cabbage.
All of the ingredients from the eggs, to the hamburg, and even to the onions! So many great ingredients being combined to make a meaty stuffed cabbage filling.
Bubbe does a little mixing with her hands and gets ready to take the filling she just made and to fill the cabbage leaves. The rolling technique is amazing, just like a blintz. If one is not enough Bubbe shows you again. It is poetry in motion.
Since you get the idea, now it is time to do the rest. Oh and here comes the part where Bubbe shows what you can do with the extra cabbage that she was talking about before. The key is not to waste the food since you can always make use of it. Others may use cabbage in the oven but Bubbe prefers using the stove itself.
But what if there is a torn leaf, as Bubbe expertly holds up to the camera? Not a problem just add the torn one to another leaf and add the filling like normal. Nobody will know the difference since it gets rolled up anyway!
As we watch Bubbe stir the tomato paste with two cans of water among other ingredients the lovely sauce for the stuffed cabbage really shines. Give a good stir and it gets poured all over the cabbage rolls. And that is all, that is it! Just bring to a boil and put the cover on!
Two cabbage rolls are taken out and they look delicious and amazing. And look at the side dishes. It is quite amazing what one can do with the leftovers.
Bubbe then thanks everyone the wrote letters… ummm we mean emails! Wait who writes letters any more in this day in age of technology? Nobody does, it’s all about the instant communications with the emails! (and we love every one of them!)
And at this point the credit rolls, we can’t forget Guertin’s graphics and awards that did a wonderful job providing beautiful t-shirts. If you have graphics and awards needs be sure to give them a ring.
Special thanks to Project ReadOn for their closed captions and to Blubrry for their overwhelming support! And with that we end another ever exciting episode as the banjo plays us out!

Episode Summary :
Schnitzel, a hearty chicken meal that comes from the heart.
Show Notes:
The show opens up with a dedication in the memory of Jon Honig by Evelyn, Jeff, Wendy and Richard.
The rap like music begins, and our hip Bubbe gets into her spiel. Today it is all about chicken. But not just any chicken, this is schnitzel. It is a great way to give yourself a treat with not as much fat. And when the grandchildren eat it, what more can you ask.
Bubbe then shows off something that she is very proud of. It is a sample that says “Life’s greatest treasures come from the heart…” or as Bubbe likes to call it “Feelings come from the heart.”
Time to get to work. Find the recipe on feedmebubbe.com. So first the bread crumbs is really important. Grate it yourself but make sure to use the correct side of the grater. If you use the wrong side… well it could hurt. Just make sure to watch your fingers.
Then comes the egg, and the water, and the mixing. Speaking of mixing, in the flour is all kinds of spices. It is all about taking the spoon and mixing it all together.
Time to get rid of the fat. Just cut it out the best that you can and put into a plastic bag. And now it is hammer time. So bang that mallet or pot tops and start breaking the meat and expand it the best you can.
When it is time to coat and fry them make sure to wash your hands first.
Time to ask Bubbe… this time the question comes to us from YouTube. Svillethomas asks “Should I feel out of place watching these videos if I’m not Jewish?” What a good question and Bubbe has the perfect answer… “Absolutely not, enjoy….” She makes Irish food, Italian, etc. Bubbe makes it kosher but you can get all the food supplies in the market. This will help you develop new taste buds.
Today’s Yiddish word is very important for all over the world. TSDOKE now those that know of the word in hebrew it is TZEDAKAH but in Yiddish TSDOKE. Anyway Bubbe tells a touching story about the way people used to drop in coins. In this time when awful things are happening in California with the fires please remember to give TSDOKE to those that need. The key is not giving a fish but teaching how to fish.
All kinds of craziness taking place where we are getting emails from China and even India. ABC World News covered the story along with hearing that even Fox and Friends mentioned it on the air. Be sure to call the phone number and hear your voice on the air. 646 - 248 - 6978 or look on feedmebubbe.com for the toll free version.

Back to the chicken in the pot. But the oil in the frying pan and let the oil flow. Now it is time to give the chicken a bath in the flour, egg wash, and bread crumbs.
Place on the aluminum foil pan and get it ready for the oven and even use the freezer if you need it. And then Bubbe turns the chicken over and places it into a plate with luchen (noodles), string beans, and carrots.
This podcast is sponsored by Guertin’s Graphics and Awards for all your graphics and awards needs go to www.guertingraphics.com or call 508-754-0200. Guertin’s Graphics and Awards is a family owned business for over 40 years. The quality of their product is amazing so the next time you have a graphics and awards need you know Guertin’s Graphics and Awards will be there to help you out.
Now you think the episode is over… but it ain’t over. Judy in Studio City leaves us with a great tip for the mandle bread. She couldn’t find the old ice trays. Well here is a great solution, take the dough and put it into the refrigerator a little while maybe an hour or too, it hardens up and it makes it easier to make the loaves put together.
And as for Jdate… maybe Bubbe should be doing shows on JDate, but it is all in good times. Anyway be sure to look out for t-shirts on its way with for every 100 shirts sold $100 will be donated to MAZON! Stay tuned…

For our viewers and friends from all over the world,
I want to express my thanks, appreciation, encouragement and for your inspiration which has helped make our videos a success. This has been a very exciting year for both Avrom and I.
Tonight on the eve of Rosh Hashanah, known as the Jewish New Year, I want to kick off the New Year wishing everyone good health, wealth, happiness, and peace.
Take time out, beginning with the traditional custom of dipping a slice of apple in honey. Why not join with our family and yours to start dinner off with everyone sitting around the table together, dipping a slice of apple in honey, wishing each other a sweet and good year.
Another good use of honey can be seen in the recent video that I made for Food Network’s Dave Lieberman’s show on Yahoo “In Search of Real Food”. The dish I made for Dave is vegetarian and is called tzimis and a meat version can be seen in episode #14 of my show listings. Both are made with carrots and honey and are a traditional dish made for Rosh Hashanah.
I continue to look forward to your emails and comments. I am amazed by the voice mail and the volume that I have received these past few months. And I have enjoyed speaking with you over AIM and on me.dium.com. I look forward to hearing from all of you.
Oh, and for a Yiddish greeting to have a happy holiday is “GUT YOMTOV”
May we all have a good and sweet year, wherever you are located.
Gut yomtov
-Bubbe

Episode Summary :
In the summer heat, you need a fruity treat, to keep yourself cool.
Show Notes:
This episode is dedicated to me.dium.com
Summer time, is a time for food, family and fun. One of our viewers Tad from the University of Kansas, asked the tough question. He wanted to learn how to pick out the best from the fruit and vegetable section.
It is then that the new theme music kicked in. Pretty snazzy…
Bubbe starts talking about how this is the perfect season for fruit and Bubbe wanted to thank everyone for emailing her about fruit.
She then talks about fruit being taken off the tree that it is hard so that since it is coming to the store it has to be semi ripened so that the store can sell it correctly.
First Bubbe shows off her fresh fruits, grapes that are fine not worry about.
Cherries, Bubbe likes to eat them like nuts. And then watch out for the nectarines and the peaches, apples, and plumbs. You have to watch carefully for the stone in the middle like mango.
Mango is delicious and more popular everyday, it needs to be soft and sweeten.
Another fruit is an avocado, if it is green it is not ripened, it needs to turn black and soft to the touch.
Try to buy fruit a day or two beforehand and those that want to make it ripe quicker uses a paper bag.
Make sure to wash and prepare the fruit.
Bubbe loves using a clear bowl. And use her lime concoction.
Look at the squeezing of the lime, you can see the aroma.
Yiddish word of the day and then all of a sudden, Avrom pulls a fast one… ok fine, it’s time for an ask Bubbe. Hedwig85 on YouTube wrote in asking about the mushrooms in the fricassee are they necessary if you are allergic.
Bubbe responds that they are not necessary and you can still make the dish. No crime of leaving out the mushrooms.
Yiddish word of the day sponsored by me.dium.com make sure to check out sneak peeks and special exclusives of Feed Me Bubbe on me.dium.com
The word today is “mishpokhe” meaning family.
Thank you to everyone using are two godaddy codes, POD59 and BLU59
And Bubbe wants to thank the emails, she wants you to be patient with her. It is taking her a lot of time to get to all of them so please be patient.
Make sure to vote for Bubbe for the Podcast People’s Choice Awards www.podcastawards.com
Bubbe uses her melon scooper to scoop out the watermelon. That always helps.
For the layering use whatever you want, Bubbe starts with grapes, strawberries, and then carefully layers the rest of the fruit. Just make sure to wash your hands before preparing any meal, even fruit!
After a rock montage that they use in all the movies to show progress it is time for the lime juice mixture all over in the glass bowl!
And that takes us to the end of another exciting episode…
Oh wait no it’s not! Ed from Ed’s Mix Bag has something that he has to say! Listen to the credits for this wonderful surprise! 646 - 248 - 6978

Sherri P. from Arizona you are our hero! Contributions have been amazing. If it was not for all of your amazing support this episode would not be possible. During the time we were off the air the following had to be repaired:
First there was the camera, it needed a good cleaning and $300 worth of parts to get it to work again. Then there was the issue of the computer and camera not hooking up correctly so we were forced to upgrade our software. In the end we are scraping the bottom of the bucket.
Those that have donated so far you have done a huge mitzvah (kindness) to preserving these wonderful memories. I am trying to treat this as a job to make sure it gets proper care but I can only do it with your help.
We are thrilled to be back and are doing everything in our power to solve all of the issues that have taken place so far. We could have just given up when the repairs needed to be done, but your support has allowed us to continue.
Now on to the meat and potatoes….
Today we are going to make blintzes and we have recieved so many requests that this episode was going to be blintzes. It brought back memories of when Bubbe used to make them. Want to make them with bubbe then check out the recipe here (coming soon)
Bubbe’s gotten a little lazy going with frozen blintzes which is not so bad but in this episode she got to experience finding the recipe. After a long search she found it burried under so many other little recipes. Blintzes can be eaten any time so Bubbe wants to thank everyone for sending in for this request.
Bubbe then shows the ingredients. There is a lot of alternating with a little flour and water. More flour and more water, mour flour and then more water. Keep stirring, more water, even more water, more flour, move it, basically keep it moving.
Then there is the frying pan. You need to choose one that will become partners with you. And when it comes to the margarine you can use foil.
We then proceed to watch Bubbe make batch after batch in the frying pan. And the best part is when she bangs it on the table. Be sure to bang with strong force.
