1. Apples Dipped in Honey
The classic! Eating apples dipped in honey on Rosh Hashanah is the traditional way Jewish people toast a sweet New Year — and the best thing ever for Jewish kids with sweet tooths. Making the honey cups out of apples is and adorable idea courtesy of everyone's favorite shiksa Martha Stewart. Get directions here.
2. Apple-Honey Challah
At the Jewish New Year, loaves of challah are made round to symbolize the continuity of creation, and sweet ingredients like raisins, honey, and apples are folded inside. Food blogger Shiksa In The Kitchen had a wonderful recipe and step-by-step guide to all that exciting, fancy braiding here.
3. Granola and Pomegranate Breakfast Bowl
Another Rosh Hashanah tradition is to eat a "new fruit" — something that is just coming into season that you haven't had yet, often a pomegranate.
SO now we've discussed my favorite Rosh Hashanah ingredients — here are lots of delicious ways to consume them. Not all of these recipes will work for every Jewish person, depending on the level of kosher law he or she observes. L'Shana tova!
