Bubbe starts the show off telling us how she is going to make tzimis and it can be used as a main dish or even a side dish. The best way to know the dish is to check out the recipe here. There are no two tzimis that is alike and everyone makes it differently. The way Bubbe figured out her recipe was by studying the Catskills. And there you go a good history of what the Catskills where like and how entertainers became big through its halls. First the sweet potatoes get cut followed by the carrots. You can hear them cracking underneath the knife. Now that everything is sliced and diced we now begin with the marathon at the stove. We are talking 3 hours of adding ingredients in a certain order making sure that everything soaks correctly. You can use an oven, Bubbe prefers dutch oven but she is going to use the stove top with a heavy pot. And there goes the meat and onions but first vegetable oil. Listen to it sizzle. It was so loud you can't hear what Bubbe is trying to say. Thank goodness for captions. The meat turns color and 2 cups of water gets added in and get ready to boil and put the cover on. This will help develop the flavor. This is where Bubbe goes into how healthy it is and the nutritional vitamins this all has. Time for the sweet potatoes and the carrots. If you like orange this is the section for you. Of course dried fruit is added and time to bring it back to a boil and of course time to cover the pot. Another half hour needs to pass now. The way things are going you would never know the time passed by. So back to the video spices and honey into the pot and an explanation of how and why it is used for Rosh Hashana. Orange Juice! Who saw that coming. As it all goes in time to put the cover back on. Finale time so make sure to taste it so that it is to your liking and if you want sweeter more honey or less add lemon. Quarter cup of water and cornstarch and this thickens the gravy. Make sure it's like a cream add it in and stir into the pot to blend it. Back to the cover. This might be the fourth time that we've put the cover on and off. On and off. Can't the cover just decide what it wants to be already. Joking aside Yiddish word of the day time and todays word is MENTSH meaning HONORABLE, and DECENT PERSON. So Bubbe wants to make sure that you be a MENTSH! Now of course Avrom takes a touching moment and decides that it's the perfect time to announce the winner of the Bzz Agent AOL Video Contest.
