Yotam Ottolenghi’s Rosh Hashanah Dinner Menu
This Middle Eastern–inspired menu for the Jewish New Year eschews classics like brisket and kugel for bass scattered with rose petals, roasted eggplant with a silky buttermilk sauce, and an apple cake with maple icing.
Esther's Gingery Chocolate Chip Cookies
Editor's note: This recipe appears as part of our editors' Christmas Cookie Swap, 10 beloved holiday recipes from the editors of Epicurious and Gourmet Live.
These cookies are delicious fresh from the oven, but to amplify the ginger flavor, allow the cookies to cool completely before eating. Semisweet or bittersweet chocolate chips can be used in lieu of both, and walnuts and other add-ins can be substituted for the candied ginger.
