When she asked me to talk about the four basic \u201cK\u201d food groups \u2013 knaidlach, kreplach, kugel and knish \u2013 I knew I had found a soul mate.<\/p>\n<p>Off the air she mentioned her German family\u2019s signature dish, Apfelschalet (Apple Schalet), which sounded more to me like an apple pie than the Passover kugel my family calls a schalet. Do these disparate dishes have a common ancestor, I wondered.<\/p>\n<p>The Lewin-Gaertner Family Apfelschalet is baked in a deep dish lined with a sweet cookie crust. Three layers of sliced apples, lemon juice, cinnamon and slivered almonds \u2013 Lewin eschews the raisins in one of the versions \u2013 are strewn with bits of crust between them, then crowned with another cookie crust atop. \u201cIt is our traditional High Holiday dessert,\u201d Lewin told me. \u201cWe make two, one to serve for dinner before services on Erev Rosh Hashanah and another to break the fast for Yom Kippur.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Lewin\u2019s mother, Elsbeth, born in Mainz, was fifteen in 1938 when the family saw the proverbial handwriting on the wall and applied for exit visas. Then came Kristallnacht, and Elsbeth, one of 10,000 Jewish children saved from the Nazis by the British, was hastily dispatched on the Kindertransport. Her father, Willi Gaertner, managed to escape to Britain as well, but the war broke out before they could send for Elsbeth\u2019s mother, Johanna. Elsbeth and her father eventually landed in New York, and Johanna wound up taking the Trans-Siberian Railroad across Russia and then sailing to Japan and San Francisco.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThere seem to be various different versions of the schalet floating around,\u201d Lewin said. \u201cOne of my sisters unearthed one that has cognac in it. My grandmother&#8217;s version, handwritten in German, says to line an iron pot with dough, and put in a layer of apples, sugar, cinnamon, and vanilla sugar until the pot is half full. Then she says to cover that with a thin layer of dough, followed by another round of apples, sugar, cinnamon and vanilla sugar. Another layer of dough goes on top, and it gets baked for 1 to 1\u00bd hours \u2013 no oven temperature given, of course \u2013 until the apples are soft.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>(Vanilla sugar, a common ingredient in Europe but not as well known in the U.S., comes in little packets and is sugar that has been superinfused with a vanilla bean.)<\/p>\n<p>A similar recipe appears in Dorie Greenspan&#8217;s &#8220;Baking: From My Home to Yours,&#8221; which she credits to a Russian grandmother, that also features two layers of apples and three of dough. Somehow through the years the Lewins began using three layers of apples rather than two, with bits of dough, rather than a solid layer of crust, between them.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cWe make it in a 2-quart Pyrex bowl, which lets you know by the lovely brown color it turns all over when it&#8217;s done,\u201d Lewin noted. \u201cIt always tastes better the next day \u2013 it gets a little bit richer.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>But what does this uber pie have in common with the matzah kugel my family calls a schalet?<\/p>\n<p>Gil Marks in \u201cThe World of Jewish Desserts\u201d notes that the word \u201cschalet\u201d derives from an Old French word (<i>chald<\/i>) meaning warm, and was used to describe a \u201ccholent,\u201d or slow-cooked Sabbath stew. (John Cooper in \u201cEat and Be Satisfied\u201d says that the Germans and Dutch used the Western Yiddish word \u201cschalet,\u201d while the Poles used the Eastern Yiddish word \u201ccholent.\u201d)<\/p>\n<p>The first puddings were savory rather than sweet and were more like sausages \u2013 animal casings stuffed with grain or bread mixtures and boiled (kishke anyone?). A bread pudding might be spread over the Sabbath stew, and both the pudding and the stew were called schalets. By 1100, Marks tells us, people began distinguishing between the two and started using the word \u201ckoogel,\u201d meaning ball or sphere, for the pudding.<\/p>\n<p>Cooper cites a German schalet-kugel of the 1870\u2019s containing softened rolls, flour, fat, raisins, eggs, almonds, lemon peel, and syrup. Apfelkuchen (apple pies) were a popular German dish from the 1600\u2019s, he says. \u201cIt is easy to see how the German Jews borrowed and adapted this dish from their neighbors, perhaps even developing it out of the medieval Sabbath dish of fried apple and egg. Possibly the apple schalet was the culinary ancestor of the apple chalotte. Further, in a town in Werttemburg a matzah apple schalet recipe was popular on Passover.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>The Lewin-Gaertner Family Apfelschalet (with sweet cookie crust), Marks\u2019 Apfelschalet (with challah) and my family\u2019s Passover Apple Matzah Schalet can all trace their roots to the Sabbath stew we know as cholent. What\u2019s in a name? A schalet by any other name would taste as sweet.<\/p>\n<p><i><b>Judy Bart Kancigor<\/b> is the author of \u201cCooking Jewish: 532 Great Recipes from the Rabinowitz Family\u201d (Workman Publishing) and can be found on the web at <a href=\"http:\/\/www.cookingjewish.com\">www.cookingjewish.com<\/a>. <a title=\"Listen to her interview with Naomi Lewin\" href=\"http:\/\/www.wvxu.org\/schedule\/cincinnatiedition_archiveview.asp?ID=12\/2\/2007\">Listen to her interview with Naomi Lewin<\/a>. <\/i><\/p>\n<hr \/>\n<h3><u><\/u><span style=\"text-decoration: underline;\"><b>Lewin-Gaertner Family Apfelschalet<\/b><\/span><\/h3>\n<h4><span style=\"text-decoration: underline;\">Ingredients<\/span>:<\/h4>\n<h4><u>For the crust<\/u>:<\/h4>\n<ul>\n<li><em>\u00bd lb.\u00a0(2 sticks) unsalted butter or non-dairy margarine, at room temperature<\/em><\/li>\n<li><em>\u00bd cup sugar<\/em><\/li>\n<li><em>1 large egg, separated<\/em><\/li>\n<li><em>\u00bd teaspoon pure vanilla extract<\/em><\/li>\n<li><em>\u00bc teaspoon salt<\/em><\/li>\n<li><em>1 teaspoon cognac (optional)<\/em><\/li>\n<li><em>About 2\u00bd cups all-purpose flour<\/em><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h4><u>For the filling<\/u>:<\/h4>\n<ul>\n<li><em>3 lbs. apples, peeled and sliced<\/em><\/li>\n<li><em>About 2 Tablespoons lemon juice<\/em><\/li>\n<li><em>About 6 Tablespoons sugar<\/em><\/li>\n<li><em>Cinnamon, to taste<\/em><\/li>\n<li><em>About \u00bd cup raisins (optional)<\/em><\/li>\n<li><em>About \u00bd cup slivered almonds, toasted<\/em><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h4><span style=\"text-decoration: underline;\">Instructions<\/span>:<\/h4>\n<ol>\n<li>Preheat the oven to 350\u00baF<\/li>\n<li>Cream butter and sugar until blended and smooth.
