Mixing Bowl: Hanukkah Edition

Graphic by Angelie Zaslavsky
This week in the world of Jewish food we’ve all been lusting after delicious fried Hanukkah goods, but in case you need a break, we bring you some healthy Hanukkah culinary options as well. Happy Hanukkah.
For Hanukkah recipes from Mario Batali’s Latkes with Apple Sauce to Brisket Bourguignon check out Serious Eats’ Hanukkah page.
But the recipe we’re really dying to try right now is The Kitchn’s innovative Apple and Cheese-Stuffed Latkes.
If you need even more latke ideas (or just a parve one), check out Jewess with an Attitude’s corn latkes or Joy of Kosher’s “Eight Days of Latke Recipes.”
And if you just need a break from cooking – and are in New York, check out Grub Street’s “Hanukkah Dining, Beyond the Usual Suspects” for some special Hanukkah dinners around town, including a four-course Sicilian feast.
Why I became the Forward’s Editor-in-Chief
- Alyssa Katz, Editor-in-Chief
You are surely a friend of the Forward if you’re reading this. And so it’s with excitement and awe — of all that the Forward is, was, and will be — that I introduce myself to you as the Forward’s newest editor-in-chief.
And what a time to step into the leadership of this storied Jewish institution! For 129 years, the Forward has shaped and told the American Jewish story. I’m stepping in at an intense time for Jews the world over. We urgently need the Forward’s courageous, unflinching journalism — not only as a source of reliable information, but to provide inspiration, healing and hope.
