If you are hosting a Hanukkah dinner, you may be serving the main dish pictured below. Do you know what it is called?
On behalf of YumSugar and myself, I wish you and your family a very fabulous holiday! May your souffles rise and gravy thicken. May your roasts be succulent and your cakes moist.
Well, he's excited about the dreidel, or four-sided spinning top, played with during Hanukkah. That's the spirit, pup!
Rugelach is a traditional Jewish pastry made with a cream cheese dough. It's the perfect sweet finish to a latke happy hour Hanukkah party. The entire menu is finger food including the dessert!
This year instead of hosting a formal Hanukkah dinner, invite friends over for a festive happy hour. Serve guests a selection of vegetable latkes with a buffet of traditional toppings like applesauce, sour cream, and smoked salmon.
Classic potato latkes are delicious alongside cauliflower curry latkes.
Since many of you are celebrating Hanukkah this week, I wanted to share a twist on my favorite latke recipe. I know oil is a huge part of the tradition, but drenching potatoes in a ton of oil isn't exactly the healthiest thing for you, so check out this recipe. It doesn't involve any deep-frying, and mixes grated carrots with sweet potatoes.
Earlier this week, I filled you in on the brand's 12 Days of Christmas Lip-Stravanganza in my post about three lip balms for mistletoe moments, and now here's another festive find: 8 Days of Luscious Lips Happy Hanukkah Lip Spa Set ($18). Included in the sweet kit is a brown sugar exfoliating lip scrub, two breath mint lip balms, a hazelnut cocoa butter lip balm, a day/night lip conditioner, a mango butter lip balm, a shiny clear gloss, and a matte gloss. The only thing that could make this cute collection better?
In case you aren't familiar with them, latkes (or latkas, depending on where you're from), are fried potato pancakes traditionally prepared during the Jewish Hanukkah festival. Although latkes come in many shapes and forms — from zucchini variations to beet renditions — the classic latke is made of shredded potatoes, oil, and seasoning. It's garnished with sour cream or applesauce.
