If you’re looking at the calendar and panicking that the High Holidays are (gasp) a little over two weeks away, you’re not alone! This year, the summer seemed to fly by extra quickly, and it’s hard to believe that the chagim are fast approaching.

For those hosting or bringing a dish to a Rosh Hashanah meal, the menu possibilities are endless. In order to help you navigate the landscape and plan the ideal Rosh Hashanah seudah (feast), our illustrator DenBerg has compiled an incredible collection of recipes for you to choose from, inspired by his grandmother Sophie. Be sure to let us know at [email protected] if you make any of these delicious dishes (and send pictures).

L’shana tova!

A message from our CEO & publisher Rachel Fishman Feddersen

I hope you appreciated this article. Before you move on, I wanted to ask you to support the Forward’s award-winning journalism during our High Holiday Monthly Donor Drive.

This year, we have stood together in strength and sorrow. Our Forward team has worked around the clock to help you find clarity amid the chaos.

If you’ve turned to the Forward in the past 12 months to better understand the world around you, we hope you will support us with a gift now. Your support has a direct impact, giving us the resources we need to report from Israel and around the U.S., across college campuses, and wherever there is news of importance to American Jews.

Make a monthly or one-time gift and support Jewish journalism throughout 5785. The first six months of your monthly gift will be matched for twice the investment in independent Jewish journalism.
