Chopped liver is a Stern/Glasser favorite served as an appetizer at family gatherings. Kosher for Passover it’s special ingredient is schmaltz. Schmaltz, rendered chicken fat, is a staple in traditional Jewish cooking. Although a lot of people refrain from using schmaltz because it’s considered artery clogging, to me there are certain recipes from the past that just taste better made the old fashioned way.
