What are Rosh Hashanah foods?
Rosh Hashanah foods carry meaning. Each dish on the table represents a wish for the new year, from sweetness to abundance. Apples dipped in honey are the most familiar tradition, and a round challah replaces the usual plaited loaf to represent the cycle of the year.
This spread suits anyone hosting a festive dinner or bringing a dish to share. Fish, pomegranates, dates and honey cake all have their place at the table, along with wine to toast the new year.
Nothing brings family together like a table set with these dishes. Woolworths makes it easy to shop the full feast and dessert menu in one trip.

Your guide to buying for Rosh Hashanah
Start with your mains. A whole fish or roast chicken works well as the centrepiece and add a round challah on the side. Add honey for dipping and a few simple sides like roast vegetables or a fresh salad.
Don't forget the sweet extras. Dates, pomegranates and a good bottle of wine round out the table nicely. For dessert, a honey cake or apple tart keeps with tradition and rounds off the meal.
Order everything through the Woolies app for delivery, or shop in store for the freshest picks with Woolies Exceptional Quality™.
