  • OILY GOODNESS Getting Ready for the Oily Fragrance and Tastes of Chanukah
    OILY GOODNESS Getting Ready for the Oily Fragrance and Tastes of Chanukah Sfenj (Moroccan Doughnuts) By Michael Solomonov Makes 8 to 10 Ingredients 1 tablespoon dry active yeast 3 tablespoons sugar 4 tablespoons plus 3/4 cup warm water 1 2 /2 cups plus 2 tablespoons flour Zest from 1 orange 1 /2 teaspoon kosher salt 2 cups canola oil 1 cup honey 1 /2 cup ground pistachios Directions 1. Dissolve the yeast and sugar in a medium-sized bowl with the 4 tablespoons of warm water. Let the yeast starter stand for approximately 15 minutes until it is frothy and blooming, so the yeast starter doubles in size. 2. Sift the flour into a large mixing bowl, then add the orange zest and salt. Make a small well in the middle of the flour and pour the yeast starter into the well. Incorporate the yeast mixture by making a swirling motion with your fingers in the middle of the well, while slowly streaming in the remaining ¾ cup of warm water. Knead the mixture inside of the bowl with palm of your hands for approximately 15 minutes until the dough is very smooth. Cover with a clean towel and set aside in a warm place to rise until it’s roughly double in size, approximately 1 hour. 3. When the dough has almost finished rising, fill a large pot with the canola oil and heat until it reaches 350ºF on a thermometer. With wet hands, lightly punch down the dough to deflate. Pull off a piece of donut batter that is approximately the size of a small egg.

  • Traditional Chanukah Potato Latkes
    Traditional Chanukah Potato Latkes I recently realized that while I've shared my recipes for corn latkes, butternut sguash sweet gotato latkes, vegetabl e latkes and beet latkes stuffed with goat cheese, I've never shared my traditional potato recipe. ! You'll need onion, oil, salt, potatoes, eggs, flour and oil. While the recipe works with any type of potato, using Yukon Gold will be much more aesthetically pleasing because they discolor much more slowly than other potatoes and will keep your mixture looking bright and fresh for longer. They also have a buttery taste which will take your latkes to the next level ! Most latke recipes call for raw onion, but I like to fry them off first to give the latkes more flavor. Dice the onion and saute it in 2 tbsp. oil and 1 tsp. salt until golden. Peel and grate the potatoes (by hand or with a food processor) and immediately put the potato shreds into a bowl of cold water. Continue shredding until all the potatoes are grated. Place the eggs, flour, fried onion and 2 tsp. salt in a separate bowl. Drain the grated potato well, add it to the rest of the ingredients and mix immediately. Heat 2-4 tbsp. of oil in a frying pan, over medium heat. Test the oil by dropping a tiny bit of the mixture into the pan. When the oil sizzles upon contact, it is ready. TIP: Add a small piece of carrot to the oil you're fry ing in. When the carrot starts to looks shriveled and brown, replace it with a fresh piece.
