Carrots represent our hope that we increase our good deeds, topped here with butter and honey, to symbolize the wish for sweetness in the coming year.

Wishing You a Sweet New Year
L’Shana Tova!

To observe Rosh Hashanah, traditional foods sweetened with honey, apples and carrots are served. They symbolize sweetness, blessings, abundance and the hope for a sweet year ahead. Fish is a part of the Rosh Hashanah meal, for it is an ancient symbol of fertility and prosperity and also represents knowledge since its eyes are always open. This is the time to reflect on our lives, values and relationships. The festive symbolic meal is an integral component of the Rosh Hashanah celebration.

  1. What a gorgeous job and I really love the carmelized apples on the top. Somehow I always think apple cake and don’t use the apples on the savory dish – I have to re hotwire myself.

    Shana Tova.

  2. I’m falling, falling for those carrots!!
    I’m also reflecting on so many things as the leaves colour deeper and eventually fall.
