The Jewish High Holidays started last week. As with most holiday celebrations, a large part of Rosh Hashanah, Yom Kippur (once you're done fasting and atoning) and Succoth is the food. My mother's family is Jewish, but of such a secular nature that there have been times when ham has appeared on the Passover table. I don't have a store of recipes that have been handed down the generations, so I often turn to others when I want to make a holiday appropriate dish.
One recipe I'd like to try and possibly add to my file of Jewish holiday treats was posted by Claire over at Cookthink. It is a delicious looking honey cake that she remembers her (recently departed) grandmother making to represent the sweetness of another new year.
