Locally-Sourced Rosh Hashanah
October 6, 2008
In the middle of an otherwise is-it-tomorrow-yet? kind of a day, I was happy to receive news that I’d won second place in The Jew and the Carrot’s Rosh Hashanah Dinner Challenge. The contest asked readers to report on how they made their holiday greener and more locally-inspired. The three dishes I made for Rosh Hashanah — Maple-Glazed Delicata Squash Rings, Vegetarian Collard Greens, and Honey Cookies — all included locally-sourced ingredients, most of it organic.
I actually made one additional dish for the second night of the holiday that I forgot to mention in my entry; a chopped salad that included mixed lettuce and tomatoes from our farm share.
Special thanks goes out to Lauren, for being the laid-back kind of hostess who didn’t mind not knowing what I’d bring until the last minute!
