Diane, are you making up for lost time?ehe When Seltzer becomes Holy
Water, you must really be knee deep in the Goyisha boonies, eh?eh IOW,
is "Dueling Banjos" your State song?ehe Well, I begin by adding a
little less than half a glass of milk - relative to the glass (12 oz.)
itself!ehe I then pour to what amounts to 7-10 tablespoons of U-Bet's
(Hershey's is the next best thing). I complete the mix with just
enough Seltzer, where the foam stops short of bubbling over. The key
is more milk, less Seltzer, and never go too overboard with the
chocolate syrup. ie. The employees at Haagen-Dazs in Jewish New York
do not know how to make a proper Egg Cream. It's like drinking syrup
and nothing else. The proper combo has everything in the world to do
with its taste. -D, NYC "Carbonated water is another Jewish gustatory
success story. In 1880, two seltzer producers opened on the East Side.
Twenty-seven years later, thanks to the exploding immigrant population
and its thrist, more than a hundred companies were manufacturing "East
Side champagne." - excerpt from JEWISH NY: NOTABLE NEIGHBORHOODS &
MEMORABLE MOMENTS BY IRA WOLFMAN.."Send a salami to your boy in the
army!" - KATZ'S KOSHER DELI, NYC, est. 1888, popularized WW II
slogan.."It's New York - everyone thinks I'm Jewish!" - GARRY MARSHALL
(filmmaker, umpteenth I-talian celebrity NYer).."During the early
1900s, when hundreds of thousands of Eastern European Jews emigrated
to America and settled in New York City, they brought their family
recipes for knishes. Knishes were made at home until Yonah Schimmel, a
rabbi from Romania, began to sell them at Coney Island ("America's
First Amusement Park") and from a pushcart on the Lower East Side. In
1910, he opened a knish bakery on East Houston Street, where it still
remains today" - LITTLE BIG BOOK OF NEW YORK
