Having a (Matzo) Ball

It’s Hanukkah, y’all!

I love me some Jewish food.

I don’t eat it that often, but I love it.

The other night, I decided to cook some up, and show Kara how to celebrate right…

Here’s some Matzo Ball Soup. So fluffy. So creamy. So savory. So right.

Here’s some Potato, Onion, and Beet Latkes with Apple Sauce, Greek Yogurt, and Green Onions. So crispy. So crunchy. So earthy. So awesome.

To go with this holiday feast, we had to have some wine…

Moselland 2007 Zeller Schwarze Katz Qualitaswein

This is a Riesling based white blend that is a little on the sweet, apple juice side of delicious, but it’s the perfect compliment to the Latkes.  I picked it up for $11 at BevMo.  You may want to try it out the next time you’re doing a salty/savory dish.  The sweetness and acidity do just the trick to liven up the food.

Happy Holidays, Everybody!

Stay Rad,

Jeff

    Beet latkes, that’s just not right. Whatever happened to the good old potato? You’re Grandma is rolling in her grave. Oy!
