Recipes for Passover 2022
Passover is sneaking up on us this year, and what’s even more startling is that this is our second Pandemic Passover – it’s mind churning to enter year two of anything right now, after a year that for me went by more simultaneously quickly and slowly than any year in my lifetime.
Perhaps this year you are able to gather in a safe small group, whereas last year the world was feeling just haywire. Perhaps you are still hunkering down with your immediate family, and making the most of an important day in the Jewish calendar. Either way, there’s dinner to plan and prepare, and I’ve drunk the Kool-Aid in terms of wanting to make everything holiday feel special, no matter how small the group, pandemic be damned.
17 Passover Recipes: However you are celebrating this year, here are lots of holiday-perfect recipes, from brisket to charoset to chocolate covered matzoh.
If you are a Kosher household, or keeping Kosher for the holidays than you should be sure to check your menu as you pull it together to make sure it follow the laws of Kashrut (no mixing of meat and dairy, no leavened bread or fermented grain products {chametz}).
If you are just looking to create a menu that feels festive and Passover-ish in nature, then perhaps your menu won’t be strictly Kosher, but it will feel like the holidays nonetheless.
This matzoh covered in a toffee-like layer, then draped in melted chocolate and finished with a sprinkle of plain flaky salt, or chopped nuts is the best end to Passover dinner imaginable.
Matzoh brei is not much more than scrambled eggs with broken up pieces of matzoh, and it’s one the simplest and most delicious ways to use up leftover matzoh ever.
Roasting asparagus is probably my favorite ways to cook asparagus. The natural sugars in the vegetables are concentrated by the high heat and you get a lovely golden exterior.
