In this week’s parsha, Moses floats along the Nile river in a reed basket, rescued by the kindness of Pharaoh’s daughter. It has become a custom for many to serve pigs in a blanket to symbolize the baby in a blanket. Last year we used asparagus in a blanket, but this year we will do hot dogs in a potato blanket.

This year we are sharing our spin on a traditional Jewish deli food menu starting with pigs in a blanket and a yummy SPLIT PEA SOUP (this recipe is made quickly in a pressure cooker, but would work fine on the stove top for a longer time).

PIGS????? Somehow that does not seem right.
Thanks for letting me know, when you click off the site some of the recipes will not be kosher.
Not sure if the website managers realize this, but when you click through on the Food Network link above, the first recipe is for gnocchi with bacon.
Don’t forget that this Friday is also (secular) New Year’s Day. Might be fun to have traditional New Year’s foods, whether apples and honey somehow or black-eyed peas like in America or something else yummy from your culture. This is a great menu to integrate with.
