Challah PAREVE
Honey Cinnamon Basket Challah | 3 to 4 Challah Loaves Ingredients For the Dough 1½ tablespoons dry yeast 1 teaspoon sugar 1¼ cup lukewarm water 4½-5 cups all-purpose unbleached flour ½ cup granulated Winn-Dixie Sugar 1 tablespoon Winn-Dixie Cinnamon ½ tablespoon Winn-Dixie Salt ¼ cup Winn-Dixie Honey ¼ cup Winn-Dixie Vegetable Oil 2 large eggs
For the Topping 2 egg yolks + 1 teaspoon water 2 tablespoons sanding sugar 1 tablespoon Winn-Dixie Cinnamon
Directions 1. In a small bowl, place yeast, 1 teaspoon sugar, and lukewarm water. Allow to sit around 10 minutes, until it becomes foamy on top. 2. In a large bowl or stand mixer fitted with whisk attachment, mix together 1½ cups flour, salt, cinnamon, and sugar. After the water-yeast mixture has become foamy, add to flour mixture along with oil and honey. Mix thoroughly. 3. Add another cup of flour and eggs until smooth. Switch to the dough hook attachment if you are using a stand mixer. 4. Add another cup of flour and then remove from bowl and place on a floured surface. Knead remaining flour into dough, continuing to knead for around 10 minutes (or however long your hands will last). 5. Place dough in a greased bowl and cover with a damp towel. Allow to rise 3-4 hours. 6. Preheat oven to 350°F. 7. Using a dough cutter or sharp knife, split dough into 6 even portions. You can use a food scale to be the most precise. Roll out each portion into a strand around 10-12 inches long. 8. Lay 3 strands vertically. Take 1 of the remaining strands of dough and place horizontally over the first vertical strand, under the second vertical strand and back over the third vertical strand.
9. Take the next remaining strand and do the exact opposite, placing it under the first vertical strand, over the second vertical strand and back under the third vertical strand. Using the last remaining strand, repeat over and under the vertical strands. The strands should make a tight basket weave in the middle with ends remaining on four sides. 10. On the first side, make a traditional braid using the 3 strands and pinch at the bottom. 11. On the second side, make a braid using an under motion and pinch at the bottom. 12. On the third side repeat a traditional braid and pinch at the bottom. 13. On the fourth side make another braid using an under motion and pinch at the bottom. 14. Fold each braid under the basket, gently pushing upwards as you tuck under. 15. Place round challah on a baking sheet lined with a silpat or parchment paper and allow to rise another 30-60 minutes. 16. Beat egg yolks with 1 teaspoon water. Brush liberally over challah. Mix sugar and cinnamon and sprinkle evenly on top. 17. Bake for 26-28 minutes, or until middle looks like it has just set and the color is golden.

Appetizers Moroccan Chicken Brik | 8 to 10 servings
MEAT
Ingredients Sauce 1 teaspoon saffron threads ½ cup Winn-Dixie Honey Zest from 1 orange ¼ cup freshly squeezed orange juice
Assembly One 50-count package square wonton skins Winn-Dixie Vegetable Oil for frying
Basteeya mixture 1 teaspoon saffron threads 3 tablespoons Ras el hanout spice mix* ½ cup boiling water 2 pounds chicken legs with thighs attached 2 tablespoons Winn-Dixie Olive Oil 2 cups diced yellow onion 1 inch piece ginger, minced 6 cloves garlic, minced 3 cups chicken or vegetable broth
2 eggs plus two yolks, whisked 1 cup slivered almonds, toasted and ground ¼ cup finely chopped fresh cilantro leaves ⅛ cup confectioners’ sugar 2 tablespoons ground Winn-Dixie Cinnamon 1 tablespoon orange blossom water (optional) Kosher salt Freshly ground Winn-Dixie Black Pepper
Directions 1. Prepare sauce: In a small saucepan over medium-high heat, combine saffron, honey, orange zest, and juice. Bring to a boil. Reduce heat to low and let cook slowly until mixture thickens, about 15 minutes. Remove from heat and let cool. 2. Prepare basteeya mixture: Preheat the oven to 220°F. Place saffron threads into a bowl, and pour 1/2 cup boiling water over them. Let saffron steep. In the meantime, rub 1 tablespoon Ras el hanout into the chicken legs and let marinate for 10 minutes. 3. In a sauté pan with a lid, heat oil over medium heat. Add onions, and sauté until translucent. Add ginger, garlic, and remaining 2 tablespoons Ras el hanout, and continue to cook until onions caramelize, about 5 minutes. Add chicken, saffron with the water, and broth. Cover chicken with parchment paper and place lid on pot. Cook in oven until the meat is falling off the bone, about 1 1/2 hours. Let cool. Pick chicken meat off the bones and reserve. Place pan with braising liquid over medium heat, and reduce liquid by half. Reduce heat to low, and add eggs. Cook, stirring continually, until eggs set up, approximately 5 minutes. Your mixture should be smooth and custard-like. 4. Scoop the mixture and place into a strainer to release extra liquid. Add the mixture to a bowl with the chicken. Add almonds, cilantro, confectioners’ sugar, cinnamon, and orange blossom water; mix well. Season with salt and pepper. 8 | For holiday recipes, meal ideas and more visit JOYofKOSHER.com
5. Lay 10 wonton skins at a time on a work surface. Place a tablespoon of the basteeya mixture on each skin. Wet the edges of the skin, and fold in half, forming triangles; press to seal edges. Pour 1 inch oil in a sauté pan, and heat to 325°F. Fry the triangles until brown and crispy, about 40 seconds per side. To serve, garnish with confectioners’ sugar and cinnamon. Drizzle the saffron honey sauce on top. *Ras el hanout is a Moroccan spice blend, usually sold pre-mixed. To make your own simplified version from spices currently in your cabinet, combine 2 teaspoons nutmeg, 1 teaspoon each salt and ginger, ½ teaspoon each black pepper, allspice, and cinnamon.

Appetizers Honey Roasted Squash Crostini with Beets | 30 crostini
PAREVE
Ingredients 1 large or 2 small red beets, scrubbed and trimmed 1 butternut squash, peeled and cubed (about 6-7 cups) 5 shallots, peeled and thinly sliced (about 1½ cups) ¾ cup Winn-Dixie Extra Virgin Olive Oil, divided 3 tablespoons Winn-Dixie Honey ½ teaspoon dried chili flakes plus more to taste 2 teaspoons kosher salt, plus more to taste 1½ teaspoons ground cumin ½ teaspoon coriander 30 slices baguette or country bread (whole wheat ok), ½-inch thick 3-4 tablespoons chopped cilantro (optional) Balsamic Reduction Glaze (recipe follows)
Balsamic Reduction Glaze
| Yields ½ cup
This concentrated glaze is the perfect finish to an elegant dish. It can be made ahead, and lasts up to 2 months stored in the refrigerator. 1 cup balsamic vinegar 1 tablespoon light brown sugar
1. Place vinegar and brown sugar in small saucepan over medium heat. Whisk to blend. Bring to a boil and cook until mixture is reduced by more than half, about 20 minutes; mixture should have a syrupy consistency. 2. Remove from heat, and allow to cool. Transfer to a container or squeeze bottle to store. Recipe courtesy of Naomi Ross and JOY of KOSHER with Jamie Geller Magazine
Directions 1. Preheat the oven to 450°F. 2. Place beets on 3 layers of foil. Drizzle with 1-2 teaspoons olive oil and sprinkle with a dash of kosher salt. Gather and crimp foil into a tight package. Roast for at least 1 hour or until fork tender. When cool, peel beets easily by slipping the skins off. Dice beets and set aside (can be made 3-4 days ahead). 3. Meanwhile, combine the squash, shallots, ½ cup olive oil, honey, chili flakes, 2 teaspoons salt, cumin, and coriander in a large bowl; toss well to coat. Transfer the mixture to a parchment-lined baking sheet, and spread in an even layer. Roast, stirring every 5-6 minutes, until tender and slightly golden, about 20 minutes (this can be done at the same time as the beets). Remove from the oven. 4. Transfer roasted squash mixture to a large bowl, scraping all juices and oil into the bowl as well. Smash with a fork until mashed but still chunky in texture. Taste for seasoning, adjusting with salt or pepper as needed. 5. Reduce oven to 350°F. Arrange baguette slices on a baking sheet lined with parchment or foil. Use a pastry brush to brush baguette slices with the remaining ¼ cup olive oil. Bake for about 10 minutes – slices should be nicely toasted. Remove from oven.
(*Toasts can be made a day ahead and stored in a container or Ziploc storage bag at room temperature.)
6. Spread a heaping spoonful of smashed squash mixture on toasts, then top with a covering of diced beets. Sprinkle with flaky sea salt and garnish with chopped cilantro. 10 | For holiday recipes, meal ideas and more visit JOYofKOSHER.com
