Rosh Hashanah recipes

Fig and pistachio tart

Baking a cake mixture in a tart tin produces something dinner-party worthy without faffing with pastry. Make sure your figs are nice and ripe.

Honeyed apple cake

Victoria Prever

"It has always struck me as odd that a traditional honey cake can be made without a drop of honey. This super seasonal spin on tradition is still perfectly pareve and packed with oodles of apples yet plenty of honey. I used Collection Select Farms British honey and the delicate flavour really shone through. It’s the perfect way to greet the new year."

Honey sesame tahini challah

Sticky sweet honey and nutty tahini sauce elevate your regular loaf to a special Rosh Hashanah treat. This tender challah is sweet, nutty-tasting and the perfect start to your celebrations. Any leftovers make the best toast, especially spread with Collection Select Farms British Honey.

Harissa tuna with pomegranate and cucumber salsa

Victoria Prever

"Rose Harissa Paste explodes with so much punchy flavour that marinating tuna steaks in it for even a short time produces restaurant-quality fish with minimal effort. It pairs perfectly with the fruity, zesty salsa which tastes as good as it looks. You can prepare the salsa and marinate the fish in advance, giving you more time to enjoy with your friends and family. I picked albacore tuna, as I prefer the flavour, but any fresh tuna steaks are ideal for this recipe. Reduce the griddling time for thinner steaks so the fish stays lovely and tender."

Dried apples bring a concentrated apple flavour to these fluffy, plaited rolls and mean no peeling or coring. The flavour is the very essence of Rosh Hashanah. Add a honey glaze or dip in honey for peak New Year vibes.
