'SHMALTZ'

While one might think

'shmaltz'

means to be flashy,

it is really just chicken fat

recipe:

rendered down, usually after the cooling

process of our chicken soup [above].

After cool down our SOUP should have

a beautiful yellow layer of chicken fat

rendered down from our cooking .

SKIM OFF this yellow layer

this is the 'SHMALTZ'

but wait...

we are not finished!!!

Now, dice up some onions very thin,

and put them in a sauce pan adding

a little 'shmaltz'

and cook the onions down slowly

then add all the rest of the 'shmaltz'

and cook slowly for a while.
