High Holiday Success:
Early Preparation
EILEEN GOLTZ SPECIAL TO THE JEWISH NEWS
o doubt about it, when the
High Holidays roll around
we absolutely, positively try
and direct all our thoughts
to a higher level. However, there
comes a point somewhere after
the Torah service where those
random thoughts of "I wonder if I
have enough food" or "will I be
able to beat everyone home to get
things on the table before every-
one gets there" intrude.
Relax and know everyone else
is worrying about holiday
meals,too. Services all get out
about the same time and every-
one wants to be able to be a guest
at his own table.
The key to mak-
ing it happen, how-
ever, is being able to
have things ready to
go as soon as you
walk through the
door. With the ex-
ception of rewarm-
ing the main course
or side dishes or
cholent, everything
should be on serving plates, cov-
ered and ready to set out. Keep-
ing with the early prep motif you
should set your table the day be-
fore and the wine and challah can
be put out just before everyone
sits down.
Don't, however, cut the apples
for the apple and honey until just
before you serve them. The ap-
ple slices will brown unless coat-
ed with lemon juice and quite
frankly I think they taste better
au natural.
Finding recipes that lend
themselves to early preparation
and still taste great when re-
heated is sometimes a challenge.
The following recipes all incor-
porate either apples or honey or
both and can all be made well in
advance of your meal.
