Fourteen delicious recipes to celebrate the Jewish new year
By DenBerg August 31, 2023
If you’re looking at the calendar and panicking that the High Holidays are (gasp) a little over two weeks away, you’re not alone! This year, the summer seemed to fly by extra quickly, and it’s hard to believe that the chagim are fast approaching.
For those hosting or bringing a dish to a Rosh Hashanah meal, the menu possibilities are endless. In order to help you navigate the landscape and plan the ideal Rosh Hashanah seudah (feast), our illustrator DenBerg has compiled an incredible collection of recipes for you to choose from, inspired by his grandmother Sophie. Be sure to let us know at [email protected] if you make any of these delicious dishes (and send pictures).
L’shana tova!

The Forward is free to read, but it isn’t free to produce
I hope you appreciated this article. Before you go, I’d like to ask you to please support the Forward.
Now more than ever, American Jews need independent news they can trust, with reporting driven by truth, not ideology. We serve you, not any ideological agenda.
At a time when other newsrooms are closing or cutting back, the Forward has removed its paywall and invested additional resources to report on the ground from Israel and around the U.S. on the impact of the war, rising antisemitism and polarized discourse.
This is a great time to support independent Jewish journalism you rely on. Make a gift today!
— Rachel Fishman Feddersen, Publisher and CEO
