Rosh HaShanah Blessings: On Apples and Honey to Celebrate the New Year
Pick up a slice of apple, dip it in honey, and say:
Czech Apple-Filled Yeast Cake (Ceske’ Buchty)
This cake combines Czech culture with Jewish tradition, placing the symbolic holiday apple inside the traditional Czech dough and making it into a ring to symbolize a year of never-ending good.
Hungarian Cabbage Strudel (Káposztás Rétes)
Cabbage was very popular in Ashkenzic communities during all the Jewish fall festivals.
Algerian Chicken with Quince
According to Clemence Barkate, an Algerian now living in France, the traditional Rosh HaShanah dish served in her home city of Constantine was chicken with eggplant, honey, and quince (a hard and crisp fruit resembling something between an apple and a Bartlett pear and has a perfume-like fragrance when cooked).
Apple and Honey Cake Bread Pudding with Butterscotch Sauce
I created this recipe from leftover honey cake.
Sweet Potato-Spiced Sufganiyot (Gluten-Free)
These jelly donuts are easy to make, and using sweet potato replenishes some of the fiber that’s lost when using gluten-free flour.
Hanukkah Radish Salad Canapés
Following in the Maccabean folkloric tradition, radish salad makes for a delicious Hanukkah appetizer.
