Yes,I made gefilte fish.

Yes,I made the horseradish,the chicken soup,the matzo balls and the brisket.

And for a fresh and not too heavy side-dish,with a local flavor,I made tabouli. When in season,and particularly for Rosh Hashana,I like to add pomegranate seeds.

Pomegranate adds color,a tangy flavor,and is one of the healthiest fruits there is. I like to use large-grain bulghur,Italian parsley that I don’t chop too finely,and some mint and coriander. For the dressing,I use a strong extra-virgin olive oil,fresh lemon juice,salt and pepper.  That’s it! The tabouli can be made a day ahead of time,so it’s great for hassle-free entertaining.
