The inspiration for our main dish on this covalence of holidays was Mark Bittman’s potato latkes (pancakes), presented on NBC’s Today Show December 22. You can see the painstaking process of their creation by clicking on the YouTube video below! My husband was the catalyst and co-chef in the peeling and cooking, as well as the producer of the iMovie. The latkes were served with the traditional applesauce and sour cream, purchased at Safeway. Wild Cohoe Smoked Salmon from Trader Joe’s and deep purple radicchio from the Ferry Plaza Farmer’s Market topped with lovely green artichoke hearts from Costco completed the meal. Rose’ wine from Lioco paired perfectly with this food. Our table setting was graced by a beautiful poinsettia (a gift from our friend Janey), a Christmas card from PeeWee Herman and the same menorah I have been using since childhood. Happy Holidays indeed!
