On
Rosh Hashanah, we eat many foods that contain honey. Here is a
recipe for honey cake, a popular dessert on Rosh Hashanah.
Ingredients
5 cups flour
1 teaspoon baking soda
3 teaspoons baking powder
½ teaspoon cinnamon
½ teaspoon nutmeg
4 eggs
½ package margarine
1 orange (juice and rind)
1 lemon (juice and rind)
Combine the following ingredients, bring to a boil, and then let cool:
1 cup strong tea
1 cup honey
1 cup brown sugar
1 cup granulated sugar
1 cup chopped nuts (optional)
Instructions:
Beat the eggs well, add the melted and cooled shortening, fruit rind, and
juices. Add the pre-sifted dry ingredients alternately with the
tea-honey mixture. Bake in a 9x12 inch loaf pan at a moderate
temperature (350 degrees) for about 1¼ hours.
