New on the blog: "They Buy Matzos from Gimbels and Macy’s: in 1920s New York."

After posting that 1920s ad for Pesach foods, I recalled this 1923 article from a Yiddish newspaper, about how some affluent assimilated Jews had stopped buying foods from Jewish small businesses and instead ordered from department stores whose delivery wagons wouldn't tip off the neighbors that they were buying products.

What foods did the big NYC department stores advertise for in the 1920s?

I found this ad by chance today in the 4/18/1929 issue of the NEW YORK JOURNAL. Check out the prices!

By then, some assimilated New York Jews who didn't want neighbors to know they were Jewish started ordering Seder necessities from department stores instead of Jewish-targeted businesses, since a Macy's van parked outside was "neutral."

VIDEO: Making Southern-Style Pecan Macaroons for Passover.

They look delicious! Eve Jochnowitz and Rukhl Schaechter show how to make them ("af Yidish," with English subtitles).

The French Jewish artist Alphonse Jacques Lévy (1843-1918) often drew, painted and sculpted scenes of the Alsatian Jewish world of his youth.

This picture, "Matzo Balls," was one of several Pesach scenes he drew over the years.

“ 'I’ll Have What She’s Having': The Jewish Deli" is an exhibition at the New York Historical Society Museum in NYC until April 2.

The website has a video and some highlights from the exhibit. Looking at it makes me hungry for a pastrami sandwich on rye and a Dr. Brown's cream soda. 😋

BBC - the values of vegetarianism have long been espoused and cherished by Ashkenazi Jewish cooks. And these values are returning from the sidelines. A new generation of Jewish sandwich slingers and cookbook authors are promoting "plant-forward" eating. In doing so, they're embodying many of the beliefs spelled out by the likes of chef Fania Lewando in her 1938 cookbook The Vilna Vegetarian – yivo.org/The-Vilna-Vegetarian- bbc.com/travel/article/2022022

I'm sorry but the fact that I can't get either corned beef or tongue at the supermarket in Vancouver is something this city needs to fix.
