A Few Words About the Pesadik Knish
Posted: April 2nd, 2010 | Author: knish hunter | Filed under: Homemade, Jewish celebration | Tags: recipes | Comments OffFirst off, Pesadik is not a bad word.
It comes from Yiddish and means Pesach-y or Passover-like. JewFAQ describes “dik” as a Yiddish adjective suffix, which translates as: set aside for, suitable for, in the mood for, “-ish”). Pesach means burnt offering. I hope that does not describe your knishes, with or without leavening agents. Check out this line-up of flour-free knishes. What better way to ring in Spring and this season of liberation?
