Sukkot Blessings
It is a mitzvah to celebrate in the sukkah. While the Torah instructs us to live in the sukkah for seven days, many choose to only eat meals in the sukkah. When eating or reciting kiddush in the sukkah, recite this blessing:
Vegan Seven-Vegetable Soup with Matzah Balls
This colorful soup is nutrient-rich and is great on its own or served topped with vegan matzah balls during Passover.
Vegan Matzah Balls
The brilliance of this recipe is that you don't boil the matzah balls. You bake them! This way, they stay intact.
Vegan Sweet Potato Kugel
The walnuts in this sweet kugel give it great texture, and the quinoa flakes add just the right amount of moisture.
Vegan Walnut Lentil Pate
This Passover dish is simple to prepare. Serve as a hearty appetizer with crudite for dipping, or use as side dish alongside the main course.
Vegan Chocolate Peanut Butter Matzah Squares
These make for an amazing Passover treat! If peanuts don't conform to your Passover minhag, try using almond butter in this recipe instead.
Galilee Diary: Booths
Spread over us the sukkah of Your peace. Blessed are You O Lord, who spreads out a sukkah of peace over us, over the entire people Israel, and over Jerusalem.
Building Sukkot for Ourselves and Others
Somehow, it always seems to rain on Sukkot. The week before the holiday usually falls during the first nice days of fall— this year my housemate packed away her summer clothes this past weekend, and I wore jeans instead of shorts for the first time in too long.
The Symbol of the Sukkah
The reading for the Festival of Sukkot comes from Parashat Emor in the book of Leviticus. The very end of the Sukkot portion contains the rationale for the festival of Sukkot, literally “booths.”
You shall live in booths seven days; all citizens in Israel shall live in booths, in order that future generations may know that I made the Israelite people live in booths when I brought them out of the land of Egypt, I the Eternal your God. (23:42-43)
