Christmas is here, and Chinese restaurants are preparing for the Jews to take over. This week I’ve put together some Asian inspired dishes to grace your Shabbat table, and relieve the Chinese takeout industry.
To start, why not try this Jewish Turkey-Wonton Soup, which actually uses traditional kreplach as the wontons! It looks amazing.
You could also start with these Crisp Orange-Chicken Spring Rolls from Gourmet Kosher Cooking.
My husband and I love this recipe for Sticky Sesame Chicken Wings and we make them all the time! Even my brother who is a bit of a picky eater likes the recipe. This would go great with some perfectly cooked white or brown rice, and perhaps a slaw such as this Asian Slaw with Ginger-Dressing.
The Nosher celebrates the traditions and recipes that have brought Jews together for centuries. Donate today to keep The Nosher's stories and recipes accessible to all.
If you want to serve a more basic salad, why not dress it with this Carrot Ginger Dressing from The Kosher Foodies.
For dessert? Keep it simple and put out some sliced pineapple or orange wedges. Ah, brings back fond Chinese restaurant memories.
Shabbat Shalom, Happy Cooking, and Happy Holidays!
