Hey, if you find a Jewish neighborhood, you can find Dr. Brown's Cel-Ray, in
the bottle, or... in the can. If you want great corned beef and you don't
have access to a great deli, corn it yourself! I did, and I made a kick-ass
potato-cheese soup from the broth last night, tonight I'm making Reubens,
and on Sunday, hash. Mmm... hash...

Ahhh, Cel-Ray. I haven't heard of that in years. I grew up in south
Florida and relished trips to Jewish deli's. Real sandwichs of corned
beef, two thin mustard covered slices of rye separated by three inches
of corn beef, a huge dill pickle on the side, a bowl of pickled beets
in the center like a relish. If I happened to go in for breakfast,
real bagels, hard and tough, not the soft bready Noah's we get here in
San Jose. Corn beef hash with real pieces of corned beef, not out a
can as I had in a deli in Brooklyn last time I was there. Blintzes! Oh
my deity. I almost forgot the blintzes. It's almost enough to make me
want to move back to little Havana. Drool. Laura, is it still possible
to get good Jewish food there? I was so disappointed when I was there
a few years ago.
