Soft, tender honey bites, sweet without being cloying, hugely popular around Rosh Hashanah and perfect to offer with a coffee or a tea.

Cantuccini come from Tuscany: small, dry almond cookies, as crunchy as can be, and the best friend your fall and winter teas and coffees could ask for.

Here is a gorgeous fall cake with honey, apples and hazelnuts, so moist it’s dangerous. It’s perfect for Rosh Hashanah or Sukkot, and it’s parve.

These ring-shaped honey cakes, fried and then dipped in honey syrup, are one of the best-known pastries on holiday tables, especially for Rosh Hashanah and Yom Kippur. Today I’m sharing my family recipe for Tunisian yoyos.

A childhood memory… A mountain of golden roses, glossy with honey syrup, sitting proudly on a porcelain serving platter. The best part? How thin the pastry is. A wonderful treat to make for Purim or Rosh Hashanah, or for Shavuot, to recall the giving of the Torah on top of Mount Sinai.

No list of Rosh Hashanah honey sweets would be complete without this cake, the Tunisian harissa (nothing to do with the chili paste!), made with almonds, semolina, orange blossom water and honey. It’s probably the easiest one to make, perfect if you’re just getting started.

This braised beef brisket is a flavorful dish that I’m sharing with you here with a fig and red wine sauce. The meat is meltingly tender, and it’s perfect for a festive meal, especially for Rosh Hashanah or Sukkot.

Delicious leek latkes, traditionally served at Rosh Hashanah but perfect for a change from the classic potato latkes of Hanukkah.
