272525 Sat Mar 21 20:12:40 -0800 1998 3 28 Kosher 0 1434313 Is there in New York City a take-out shop or store stocking home-made gefilte fish (fresh or frozen) that is WITHOUT sugar? Not that diabetes is the issue, but having been raised on the subtle tart Litvak style of preparing this dish, the sweetening of this delicacy is an abomination to the palate. I would make it myself but time does not permit lately. Anyone with hints?? Sat Mar 21 20:12:40 -0800 1998 0 Allan Evans 1 1434333 I found it! Zabar's has it homemade. Now, I'm not certain if it does not contain sugar but I had it last Saturday and it was not sweet.

Not to mention, that their lobster and shrimp salad kicks butt! i don't recall it being sweet either, just really good!

All you do is place in boiling water and then drain and slice. I've had the regular kind, which is excellent, but it does have sugar (and we prefer it that way). However, there is also a sugar-free version which I have not tried. Good luck. Thu Feb 25 21:20:36 -0800 1999 1434313 0 Larry
