In fact, I've been offended by the reaction of those who've tried it as an adult. Although Mike enjoys red horde radish, the white is really the way to go. Did you know that ball, or the pattie, or the dumpling shaped gefilte fish is not really gefilte! The reason it's called gefilte (which means stuffed) is because that ground up mix of Whitefish fish, Yellow Pike and Carp is seasoned to taste and stuffed back into the skin/shell of the fish and then cut into fish steaks and cooked with the fish stuffing in the center, hence gefilte fish. Making it as balls is really much easier. Can you say kreplach? I grew up eating gefilte fish, I’m convinced that it’s the only way to acquire a taste for it.

But I do admit that I buy Gefilte Fish throughout the year, and find it to be a tasty snack, especially with red horse radish. Yum!

I won't be making gefilte any time soon. I can’t believe I married you… I won’t be making gefilte any time soon.
