Food Root Vegetable and Medjool Date Stew
Serves 6 to 8 Active Time: 30 minutes Total Time: 3 hours The Medjool dates in this wintery stew soak up the sauce but still hold their shape during cooking. I use white wine instead of red.

Food A Honey Cocktail for Rosh Hashanah
Growing up, there were exactly four bottles in the Sussman family liquor cabinet — if you could call an out-of-the-way cubby above the microwave, reachable only by footstool, a “liquor cabinet.” The Kahlua was used for brownies or chocolate cake when we ran out of vanilla extract. Chocolate-and-orange-flavored Sabra, an Israeli invention, served no purpose…
