A childhood memory… A mountain of golden roses glazed with honey syrup, displayed on a porcelain serving platter. The best part? The delicate, paper-thin pastry. A wonderful kosher treat to make for Purim or Rosh Hashanah celebrations.
A beautiful addition to your dessert platter, cornes de gazelle are small pastries filled with almond paste, some even add hazelnuts. They’re easy to make, though a bit time-consuming. The advantage is they freeze beautifully.
The list of honey sweets for Rosh Hashanah would be incomplete without this cake, Tunisian Harissa, made with almonds, semolina, orange blossom water and honey. It’s probably the easiest to make, perfect for beginners.
These honey-glazed cookies shaped like yoyos are one of the most beloved pastries on holiday tables, especially for Rosh Hashanah and Yom Kippur. Today I’m sharing my family’s Tunisian yoyo recipe with you.
Pkeila is a signature dish of Tunisian Jewish cuisine. This stew features spinach that’s been slowly cooked until caramelized, then simmered with meat and white beans. A true delicacy for those who love it, don’t be put off by its distinctive dark color - this is a dish that wins hearts.
This braised beef brisket features tender, melt-in-your-mouth meat in a rich fig and red wine sauce. Perfect for festive meals, especially Rosh Hashanah or Sukkot.
