L'Shana Tova. The Jewish high holidays are a time for celebration, reflection and, of course, eating. A touch of honey on your Rosh Hashanah menu seals the deal for a sweet New Year. And if you want to break the Yom Kippur fast with a fantastic dairy spread, look no further.
From Roasted Brisket to Honey-Spice Cake, we have the holidays covered. We’ve arranged the recipes in a mix-and-match style so you can choose the mains, sides, and desserts that work best for your crowd.
Note: If you’re preparing a Kosher menu, read the recipes carefully, as not all mix-and-match possibilities will present the right combination of ingredients.
