To celebrate Tu B’Shevat it has be-
come a custom, in modern times to eat
fruits and nuts indigenous to Israel.
More precisely one should eat 15 dif-
ferent kinds of fruits or nuts because
the Holiday falls on the 15th of the
month Shevat. Some popular fare
which to feast are: almonds, dates,
figs, carob, grapes, plums, apples,
oranges, and apricots.
■ Poached Pears With Or
Without Melba SauceN
A superb dessert that is as delightful to look
at as it is to eat.
6 pears, preferably Anjou
3 cups water
3A cup sugar
Vi teaspoon vanilla (optional)

Here are a few recipes from The
Jewish Low Cholesterol Cookbook to

Trees which decorate and fortify our
society, and are the mainstay of Israel.

Vi teaspoon salt
3 tablespoons oil
2 egg whites
Vi cup white or firmly packed brown sugar
1 teaspoon vanilla
1/2 cup chopped walnuts
■ Pour the boiling water over the dates and
baking soda. Let cool.
■ Stirthe flour and salt together.
■ Beat the oil, egg whites, sugar, and vanilla
together. Stir in the flour mixture alternately
with the date mixture and blend well after each
h addition. Stir in the nuts.
I ■ Bake in a greased 9 by 5-inch loaf pan at
* 350 degrees for 40-45 minutes.
■ Peel the pears without removing the stems.
■ Bring the water, sugar and vanilla (if desir-
ed) to a boil and simmer covered for 5 minutes.
Add the pears. Bring to a boil, lower the heat
and simmer covered for about 25-30 minutes or
until the pears can be easily periced with the tip
of a sharp knife. Let cool in the syrup. Remove
the pears from the syrup with a slotted spoon.
■ If the melba sauce is not desired, boil down
the syrup to about one-half its volume. Cool,
chill, and serve with the pears.
■ To prepare the melba sauce, drain the
berries. Save the syrup. Press the berries
through a fine strainer with a wooden spoon.
Discard the seeds.
■ Flavor the raspberry puree with sugar or
kirsch if desired. For a slightly thinner sauce
stir in a few tablespoons of the reserved syrup.
Yield is about Vz cup sauce.
■ GranolaN
Add raisins, chopped dates, or chopped ap-
ricots, if you want, to the baked granola.
4 cups rolled oats
2 cups wheat germ
1A cup sunflower seeds (optional)

■ Stir in the honey or brown sugar. Spread
the mixture out into 2 large (10-inch by 15-inch)
greased baking pans. Bake at 275 degree for
one hour. Stir a few times during baking so that
the granola will brown evenly.
■ Apricot KugelB
I’ve never met anyone who doesn’t like kugel.
It’s a good choice for anyone except a serious
dieter. Here’s an especially easy recipe.
12 ounces broad noodles, cooked
3 tablespoons oil or melted margarine
12-ounce apricot jam
Vz teaspoon almond extract
V* cup orange juice
3 egg whites
3A cup raisins
Vi cup chopped walnuts

maragarine. Combine with the remaining in-
gredients.
■ Place the noodle mixture into a 21/2-quart
greased casserole or a 9-by 13-inch greased
baking dish. Sprinkle with brown sugar, if de-
sired.
■ Bake at 350 degrees covered for 20
minutes and then uncovered for 10 minutes
longer.

Being
Jewish
In
Hollywood
continued from page 11
But Gary Rubin, like Mazursky,
keeps plugging away. "What propels
me?" He pauses. "Stupidity."
If others smart at the notion that
movies with Jewish themes take a
back seat to commerce, it's only a
matter of common sense, said Seidler-
Feller.
When Hollywood is willing to risk
box office for its beliefs, when
Variety's headlines scream out,
" 'Cantor Bob at the Bimah' a Boffo
Hit," maybe then the transformation
will have been completed
Until then, one must understand
the rules of the game. "Show business
is first and foremost a business,"
Seidler-Feller said.
