This Jewish holiday make the easiest gefilte fish recipe with salmon!
Jump to Recipe
The holidays were allways so much fun growing up! Mama Goldstein made the best Jewish comfort food. We would wake up to the smell and sizzle applause of the potato lakes frying. The brisket would be tucked into a warm blanket of veggies in the oven, applesauce ready to meet it BFF latkes, and pigs in a blanket would be lined up in rows on sheet pans. Every time I cook for the holidays now I try to bring the flavors of my childhood home in NJ to my apartment in NYC!
This is my version of gefilte fish with a twist using salmon. Also, everything gets blended up in a food processor and then baked for less clean up.

Hacks for Easy Gefilte Fish:
- Bake the fish instead of boiling: I actually bake the gefilte fish in a casserole dish with broth at the bottom. This way everything holds together well and you get a roasted and steamed texture.
- Use salmon instead of cod: I like the sweet salmon flavor this recipe adds plus it has the perfect texture for making the shape of gefilte fish.
