Happy Jewish New Year, everyone!!!
Or at least, as of sundown.
We're celebrating Rosh HaShana with a big family meal, and while my husband's brisket is the delicious centerpiece, my favorite part of the meal is much simpler: apples dipped in honey for a sweet new year.
(Yeah, I know I could have that anytime, but I find it generally hard to rationalize adding empty calories to a perfectly sweet piece of fruit. Yet for Rosh, it's tradition! I hear the cast of Fiddler on the Roof in my ear and I dip!)
If you're celebrating the holiday, does your family serve an annual dish you love? If you're not celebrating, and you've never done the apples-in-honey thing, give it a try and let me know what you think!
