December 3: Celebrating Hanukkah with Latkes!

Latkes or Potato Pancakes are staples among the Jewish people when celebrating the Hanukkah festival. The oil used when making latkes are symbolic of the oil taken from the Hanukkah story wherein a long-lasting flame lit the Second Temple of ancient Israel. If you're looking for online food recipes for Hanukkah, having this traditional Hanukkah food on the table is definitely a must.

Latkes may be served ungarnished or topped with a condiment ranging from the sweet, like apple sauce or cinnamon, to richer flavors like cream cheese or cottage cheese. You can even mash the potatoes first and create pancake shaped croquettes. When the flat pancake latkes are cooked beautifully and stacked together, they can make for some artistic food photography.

If you're searching for Jewish food recipes or just quick appetizer ideas, why not try out some of these featured Latke recipes made by our Dishfolio food bloggers?

Broccoli Feta Fritters

This is super simple to pull together and I like to do it before I start the main dish. I put them on a plate and stick them in my warming drawer, or you could place them in an oven at 200 degrees.
