Here’s to a Happy Rosh Hashanah and a Great 5787!

An array of New Year’s foods

From the Deli

Chopped Liver – My grandmother’s recipe! Great as an appetizer or spread on a thick slice of hand-cut Bakehouse Challah.

Chicken Broth – The long-simmered broth of Amish chickens, sans salt, ready to heat and serve.

Matzo Balls – Formed by hand using the marvelous matzo meal from the wacky and wonderful people at the Matzo Project.

Dates from Rancho Meladuco – Incredibly good and fully ripened on the tree (most commercial dates are picked early for easier handling and longer shelf life). Highly recommended for just about everything you can imagine. 

Two dozen artisanal honeys to celebrate a sweet New Year! Buy two or three and create a tasty (and educational) little “honey bar” for your family to dip apples into.

Plus whole-roasted Amish chicken, carrot tsimmes, lemon couscous, noodle kugel, knishes, and much more!

From the Bakehouse

Bumble Honey Coffee Cake – The dark deliciousness of buckwheat honey brings a beautiful blend of bold and sweet. (See below for more on this tasty holiday cake.)

More Rockin’ Challah – I’ve loved this traditional Moroccan challah ever since we started making it maybe 15 years ago. Enriched with eggs, braided, and dusted with a generous coating of poppy, sesame, and anise seeds. 

German Challah – One of my current favorites, this is the challah that renowned food writer and University of Michigan alum Joan Nathan was raised on! It’s less sweet, a bit more dense, and, I think, really delicious.

Challah Turbans – Available with or without raisins soaked in Myers’s Dark Rum.

Eve’s Apple Babka – This stuff is selling like crazy, which tells me it’s probably a surefire hit on your holiday table.

Chocolate Raisin Babka – A dark chocolate treat to serve, sliced or whole, for the holiday—or bring one as a host gift!

Rugelach – The classic Eastern European Jewish cookie, filled with currant walnut, raspberry, apricot (my favorite), or chocolate. Not only is it sweet and delicious; apricots are a symbol of dignity and democracy! We also have two special flavors that we make only for Rosh Hashanah—date and coffee, and then, of course, apple. Buy an assortment and share with family and friends.

Apple Rétes – A super tasty, handmade Hungarian apple strudel! A Central European classic.
