Victoria's Rosh Hashanah Menu Ideas
Rosh Hashanah celebrates both the New Year and a birthday – humankind’s. The holiday is at once solemn and festive: joy comes not only from trust in God’s compassion but also the anticipation of renewal and fresh starts. The table is transformed into an altar to supplicate God, partaking of symbolic foods. Honeyed and sugared treats for a sweet year; round foods for a fulfilled year, unbroken by tragedy; foods that grow in profusion at this season and those eaten in abundance, like rice, signifying hopes for fecundity, prosperity, and a wealth of merits.
Here are some menu ideas to help you set your Rosh Hashanah table.
