Chanukah is here! It’s time for the eight-day festival of lights. Chanukah is celebrated with a nightly menorah lighting, special prayers and fried foods. It is customary to eat foods fried in oil, since the Chanukah miracle involved oil. Whether you’re spending the holiday with a small group of friends and family or you plan to have a large group over, after the blessings are said, the candles are lit and the gifts are exchanged, it’s time to start cooking. From classic Chanukah fare such as sufganiyot and latkes, to modern interpretations of your favorite Chanukah meals, our Publix Aprons® team has provided several delicious recipes you should try this year.
Smoked Beef Brisket
Our smoked beef brisket is one meal eaten during Chanukah that is not fried. This Publix Aprons® Smoked Beef Brisket is an essential main course for any Chanukah celebration.
If you don’t have a grill and want a different flavor profile, try our delicious Roasted Garlic and Onion Brisket. You can either bake or braise it.
Chicken with Apricots and Green Onion Latkes
Green onions in potato pancakes? Yes! Green onions add a refreshing and unique twist to traditional latkes. For your Chanukah dinner, Green Onion Latkes can be formed ahead of time by arranging patties in a single layer on a baking sheet and chilling up to two hours. Surprise your guests with these tasty treats.
For a non-traditional latke recipe that you and your guests will love, give these unique Zucchini Potato Pancakes a try.
Sufganiyot
Continuing the fried food theme for Chanukah, Sufganiyot are delicious treats perfect for any time of the day. These round jelly doughnuts originated in Israel and are now eaten throughout the world on Chanukah. They’re deep-fried donuts, filled with jam or custard and topped with powdered sugar.
If you’re not in the mood for Sufganiyot after your meal, our Bakery department offers Seasonal Chanukah cookies and a Chanukah House kit (not available in all stores – check with Customer Service to order) you can design with your family and enjoy!
