"I have been writing #Hanukkah columns for the #StLouis #Jewish Light since 2006 and have covered a trove of historical and #culinary topics regarding #latkes. This year, I thought it might be fun to explore creative ways to serve your #potato latkes.
So move over, #applesauce. These are delicious latkes you can serve as fancy appetizers, exciting breakfasts, fun noshes while watching your favorite movies or football games, and lovely side dishes for your Hanukah dinner. To paraphrase a passage from one of Elizabeth Barrett Browning’s sonnets: “How do I love latkes? Let me count the ways.
We all know that Hanukkah celebrates the #Maccabean army’s victory over a much larger #Syrian force, and the miracle of the #oliveoil that kept the Temple’s eternal light burning for eight days. Thus, we honor the miracle of #oil by enjoying #friedfoods on Hanukkah.”
