I've been frogged! |
We had a great seder with ten family and friends. Between the Passover charades, the loud singing, throwing the frog plagues and giggling hysterically while N gargled the "water" part of Chad Gadya, we had a rocking good time.
Our menu:
Bubbe Sara's seder plate |
Sephardi charoset (dried fruits with Yemenite spices)
Fresh-grated horseradish root
Crudites with guacamole and onion confitGefilte fish with both white and red horseradish and hard-boiled eggs
Chicken soup with knaydlach (floaters, not sinkers)
Green salad
Roast turkey and chicken in white wine with artichokes, leeks and mushrooms
Quinoa with mixed vegetables
Francois Payard's chocolate-nut cookies Coconut macaroons
And matzah, and LOTS of wine, including a Canadian Okanogan Valley ice wine for the final two cups.
If you celebrated Pesach, I hope your holiday was as much fun as ours!
Guacamole?

Happy Passover!
