Prep your menu ahead to avoid any High Holiday culinary stress!

(The Nosher via JTA) – The High Holidays can be a stressful time, particularly if you’re cooking and hosting multiple meals. It’s not only the sheer amount of food, but the logistics — menu planning, limited oven and/or stovetop space, ensuring everything is at the right temperature when you’re ready to serve.

The best way to sidestep that stress is to plan ahead (at The Nosher, we’ve long been big fans of starting Rosh Hashanah prep way ahead of time), and the freezer is your best tool. We’ve rounded up 19 Rosh Hashanah recipes that freeze excellently (some, arguably, benefit from that extra time developing flavor), so you can cook bit by bit, breaking down your prep into bite-sized chunks (pun very much intended), so that you’ll actually be able to enjoy Rosh Hashanah meals — not just provide enjoyment to others.

From holiday classics like brisket, matzah ball soup and honey cake to symbolic dishes you may not have come across, like Israeli duvshaniyot cookies and Syrian-style stuffed zucchini, there are so many delicious recipes here to lighten the load. And please be sure to rate and review any you try, we love to hear from you!

Honey Pomegranate Cake

Bake now, enjoy later, just wait to add the glaze until the day you serve it for the best flavor and texture.
