Hi Suzi,
Your Latin Shabbat sounds lovely! I look forward to meeting you in my classes downtown at some point… Meanwhile, jump in and try that Veracruzana style Gefilte Fish, you can make it with the already pre-made fish mixture sold in frozen sections in Kosher Mart, for example. You will find it’s easy! Very best, Pati

My synagogue in Potomac, B’nai Tzedek, just sponsored a Latin Shabbat this past Friday. On Saturday, I tuned into my favorite NPR show, Splendid Table, and heard your segment. We had just enjoyed a gefilte fish meal very similar to the one you described as well as other latin flavored dishes. Considerable coincidence, I thought. Now, though I am a complete disaster in the kitchen, I’m going to check out your classes downtown! My husband is from Costa Rica and we had a large turnout for the Latin Shabbat, with members representing a number of countries throughout Central and South America. I wish you all the best and look forward to your show on PBS.

Mi Pati!
I canÂ´t wait to get back home and update my iPod with the Splendid Table episode with you in it. So proud of you!
