This is my third holiday season with my fiance and each year he has slowly been introducing into some of the traditions of Hanukkah. The first year was the eight days of gift giving (which he REALLY enjoys!), the second year we bought a small menorah and lit the candles each evening. This year I decided that on the last night of Hanukkah I would try my hand at making a few traditional Jewish dishes, namely Brisket, Latkes and Applesauce all of which turned out superbly.
For the brisket I modified a slow cooker recipe that I found in a Jewish Cookbook, Jewish Slow Cooker Recipes : 120 holiday and everyday dishes made easy by Laura Frankel. The latkes that I made resemble hashbrown patties and were super easy to make. To serve with the latkes I made homemade applesauce which was beyond anything I've ever done before and so easy that I've decided to never by store bought applesauce again.
Happy Holiday Cooking Everyone!
