Hanukkah always seems to fall just when we need more light to brighten up early winter evenings, time to celebrate with friends, and Hanukkah foods like latkes to indulge in. Called the Festival of Lights, Hanukkah has many roots. Today, it’s most often thought of as a celebration of the rededication of the temple after the Maccabees defeated Antiochus IV’s army and the miracle of a small vial of oil that burned bright in the temple for eight days, when it should have lasted for only one.
Fittingly, Hanukkah recipes from communities around the world use oil to fry crispy potato latkes and Hanukkah doughnuts like jam-filled sufganiyot and zalabia coated in a sweet syrup. There are also families like Joel Linkewer’s that lived in Central America and Puerto Rico and celebrate with fried smashed plantains or tostones served with spicy covina ceviche. You will find all of these below, plus chef Michael Solomonov’s coffee-braised brisket, a Danish rice pudding recipe that Margit Sheftelowitz grew up eating in Denmark and now serves at her annual Hanukkah party in Israel, and many more.
