Orange and Rye Honey Cake
"Are you sure there are only four Jewish New Years? Because it sure seems like there are a Hell of a lot more than that!"
Rye Honey Cake
Pre-heat oven to 400
Sift together:
6 ounces rye flour
6 ounces all-purpose flour
1 tablespoon baking powder
1/4 teaspoon baking soda
3/4 teaspoons kosher salt
1/2 cup sugar
3/4 teaspoon lightly crushed caraway seeds
Blend or process:
2 mandarin oranges or 1 orange
6 ounces Date honey (Silan)
3/4 cup oil
2 eggs
2 tablespoons rye whiskey
1 1/2 teaspoons vanilla
Pour the orange blend into the sifted ingredients and mix just enough to combine. Scrape into two mini-bunds or an eight-inch tube pan plus a couple of muffin cups (Or one full-size bundt pan or tube pan)
Sprinkle a few extra caraway seeds on top. Bake for 12 minutes. Reduce oven to 350 and bake 12 minutes more (This is for the 8-inch pan. You will need a longer baking time for the Bundts). Test with a skewer and bake a few more minutes in a turned-off oven if needed.
A few years back, I was dictating a Rosheshone recipe and the result instructed folks to marinate tofu in a bottle of forgiveness. I was impressed with how very appropriate an ingredient a bottle of forgiveness is for the holiday season. This year I wished a friend a year full of brokhes and Chad changed it to a year full of brooches. Why not? I wish a heathy year full of brooches to all.
