Not such a great idea, right? Well, unfortunately, most people who celebrate the Jewish New Year, or Rosh Hashanah, have been suffering needlessly under the tyranny of this strange confection for generations. Honey cake, meant to symbolize the sweetness we hope to find in the year to come, never turns out as tasty as it sounds.
Honey cake is one of the traditional foods eaten on Rosh Hashanah. Honey symbolizes our hopes for sweetness in the year to come. It is also customary to eat apple slices dipped in honey on the holiday. What does Shana Tova mean? During Rosh Hashanah, you’ll often hear the greeting “Shana Tova umetukah!”
I should have known to go straight to Marcy-her Caramel Matzoh Crunch is a legendary treat for Passover. And unlike the slew of honey cakes in my past, hers didn’t disappoint. The blend of spice, honey sweetness, and a tender, moist crumb was what I’d been searching for all along. I’ve made her recipe for every Rosh Hashanah ever since.
Some people discourage baking with raw honey because it kind of defeats the purpose of it being “raw”, but if you have a lot of honey, I say you should bake this cake! An easy and traditional Rosh Hashanah dessert to celebrate a sweet new year. Make something from the blog?
