Community members can order cheese blintzes, homemade by Michael Crane, from Congregation Beth Torah for breaking the fast after Yom Kippur.
The cheese blintzes are made with dry cottage cheese, cream cheese, butter, egg yolks, whole eggs, flour, milk and sugar. They are individually frozen and vacuum sealed in packages of six. The original recipe comes from Crane’s grandmother, Ethel Stein Gold, and has been passed through the generations.
Crane calls these blintzes “the number-one comfort food” and considers them his favorite food. He is known for working in the field of traditional Jewish foods since his retirement from Crane Brewing.
Blintz orders can be made between now and Sept. 22 (or until the blintzes are sold out).
