If you loathe gefilte fish, that staple of the Seder, it may just be that you've never had it homemade. In this recipe, created to convert gefilte fish skeptics, the traditional patties are updated with more flavorful fish, and then poached in court-bouillon — that is, a light vegetable broth. Be sure to use a wide pot here; the patties rise to the top as they cook, and you want to give them enough space.

Growing up my Mother (kih) and Bubbie (a"h) used to make this fish every year from scratch. I've updated it a little from their recipe. It's important to season to taste!

This baked gefilte fish recipe is a great shortcut and tastes just as delicious as the homemade version. Baking the gefilte fish loaf instead of boiling it gives it a better texture. Serve this traditional dish for a Jewish holiday celebration.

My mother's gefilte fish is the stuff of legends. We have tried to reproduce it for years, with little success. We have watched her make it, measured, copied, you name it. Still, it is just not the same as the fish my mom makes. Hers is so delicious, even to people who just despise gefilte fish, that friends and family members will travel across the continent to have some. A tough act to follow. That said, here is the best approximation of my mom's classic fish that I can come up with…

Parve Todd: To me, gefilte fish out of a jar is an abomination, but my version, basically an interpretation of the French quenelles be brochet, is cheftastic. Choosing between the two is a no-brainer, in my opinion (see Gefilte Fish: Jarred or Fresh? below). I prefer to use rockfish, otherwise known as sea bass, for gefilte fish because it is indigenous to the Chesapeake region. I blend it with pike and flounder, but you could use any combination of the three. Any white, non-oily fish will…

Tsilia’s presentation of this dish is very unique. She has her fishmonger give her the head and tail from the fish, and she sets them on the platter with the gefilte fish in place of the body, making it look as if the fish swam right onto the table. Most people buy this traditional dish during the holidays, but Tsilia makes her own every year. (Recipe by Tsilia Sorina)
