In 1904, Abe and Minnie Dubroff immigrated from Russia to Brooklyn where they raised seven daughters and a son.

For a century, the family has gathered at Passover and celebrated the Seder together... first in Brooklyn, then in Boonton, New Jersey.

For the last four decades, Passover has been celebrated in Newburgh, New York.

Led by the three surviving sisters, Sophie Patasnik, Peppy Barer and Rosie Groman, traditional preparations were made for the Seder at Peppy's home in Newburgh.

Six Weeks before the Seder they shopped and chopped, tasted and seasoned.

Using recipes nearly a century old, they began to put together the Gefilte Fish, Cholent, Horse Radish and Sponge Cake.

This is a loving, living album of the Seder.

  • "I think there's too much salt! No? Then what was the pint of tasting it!?"  Hillarious!

  • I saw the whole video on WETA. It is precious-even their visit to the Kosher butcher! This short YouTube video is just a small taste of the whole video.

  • Am so sorry to read that Rose passed away during the summer---now, only Peppy is left, G-d bless her. My deepest sympathy to the whole family on Rose's death; my prayers are with you.

  • Are the remaining two sisters still living? I know the one sister passed right after the film was made, unfortunately. Is Peppy still pepping along? I hope so, God love her.

  • I am sitting here in tears just after watching the whole program on PBS and loving every minute of it. I've known wonderful warm women like this in my long life. They are the treasures of Jewish families. May the next generations follow in their footsteps.

  • I happened upon the entire program early this morning, when I could not sleep. I loved every minute of it; I miss my Jewish neighbors in Levittown, PA!

  • The Pepsi bottle on the table adds a charming ambience to the decor...LOL!

  • A gem of a clip. A gem I tell you.

  • Lobster, no, it's not kosher. Fish, depends on the variety. In the broadest sense, they need visible, easily removable scales to be kosher, but it's actually more complicated than that (of course). And yeah, gefilte fish is made from real fish.

  • Is gefilte fish from real fishes?

    Are lobster and fishes kosher in jewish kitchen?
