The Shofar Blasts as a Metaphor for Life
If, as the Talmud tells us, the blasts of the shofar are meant to remind us of crying, (Babylonian Talmud, Rosh Hashanah 33A – specifically of Sisera’s mother – but that is another subject!), then I would offer the following.
Rosh HaShanah Noodle Kugel
Here’s a delicious noodle kugel that incorporates all the symbols for a sweet and fruitful New Year.
Tart Pomegranate and Cherry Tonic
Behold the heart-healthy mojito mocktail. So brightly delicious and refreshing!
Pomegranate Orange Sheet Pan Chicken
Nothing is easier, faster or more worry-free than a sheet pan dinner!
Homemade Applesauce
This recipe should be in every home’s repertoire. It doesn’t get fresher than this, and it is so easy to make, especially if you have a food mill.
Quick Honey Cake
One summer, I went to the store and no honey cakes could be found. What to do? I combined a standard gingerbread cake mix with some main ingredients in honey cake - coffee and honey - and an easy, quick honey cake was born!
Tzimmes Cake
We eat honey and other sweet foods on Rosh HaShanah to usher in a sweet New Year.
Apple-Filled Star Challah
Family and guests will ooh and aah over this beautiful Rosh HaShanah challah, which tastes as good as it looks!
