• Playing the Dreidel Game
Dreidel is a game played at Chanukah. Dreidel is a four-sided spinning top with a Hebrew letter on each side.
Each letter represents:
Nun – get nothing
Shin – put in pot
Gimel – get all
Hay – get half
The complete phrase is “A great miracle happened there”.
We use Chocolate coins – Gelts instead of real coins.
Thanks to Kenneth S. Rothschild for making this video. He captured a perfect shot with the Dreidel giving Sharon all four Hebrew letters after many takes! A great ending 🙂
• Gluten Free Latkes & Raw Apple Sauce
Video shows how to make gluten free potato latkes and apple sauce
POTATO LATKES
2 eggs
2 cloves of garlic minced
6 russet potatoes
6 tablespoons arrowroot flour/starch (gluten free, no white and wheat processed)
2 medium onions – grated or chopped
1/2 teaspoon black pepper
2 teaspoon fine sea salt
PREPARATION
Wash potatoes with water and use vegetable scrub on potatoes – keep skin for fiber and nutrition benefits after grating potatoes in the food processor or grater – put in bowl of cold water to help bring out some of the starch and use strainer to squeeze out all liquid to make patties
Frying pan – pour either avocado oil or extra virgin olive oil and have it hot ready before putting the latkes in it
Let’s make some raw apple sauce in the blender – no cooking involved.
I use green apples because it has the lowest sugar of all the apples and I keep the skin on for fiber and nutrition benefits. Use apple corer to remove the core in the middle.
4 apples
1 teaspoon fresh lemon squeezed juice
1 teaspoon cinnamon or 3 drops of doTERRA cinnamon bark essential oil
1 tablespoon honey
Vitamix blender
I hope you enjoyed the cooking show and learned some new tips. Please share with us your results.
Have a wonderful and Happy Chanukah!
