While potatoes are the traditional base ingredient, Latkes can also incorporate various other elements like cheese, onion, and zucchini to add flavor and variety. These alternative ingredients provide delicious alternatives for those looking to explore different tastes and textures while still enjoying the cherished tradition of Latkes during the (Jewish) Hanukkah festivities.

Spaghetti Squash Latkes Spaghetti Squash Latkes
I bought a small spaghetti squash the other day because I REALLY wanted spaghetti squash. However, because my hubby doesn't like it with just butter salt & pepper like I do (and has barely liked any other way I've prepared it) I wanted to throw something new and unexpected his way. He loves when I make Latkes so I simply took my go-to Latke recipe, replaced the potato with spaghetti squash, and modified other ingredients accordingly. He actually enjoyed it!I have included as the first few steps my personal favorite cooking method for spaghetti squash; roasting. This keeps the excess water content down. However, you can prep the squash whatever way you choose. You just might need to squeeze out excess moisture or add additional flour (that one would throw off the flavors), especially if you boil it. So I highly recommend roasting. StephieCanCook -

My Grandmother's Wrapped Burdock My Grandmother's Wrapped Burdock
Out of all the dishes in my grandmother's New Year's meal, this is the #1 or 2 most popular. Even when we wanted to eat them on a normal day, she would make them for us. It's a flavor that I crave sometimes.They are wrapped with pork but of course beef works. You can use any part of the thinly sliced meat that you prefer! Wrapping is kind of annoying but the rest of the work is easy. My grandmother always finishes them off by simmering, so if you just simmer like you would when making stews, it's okay. My grandmother's seasoning is quite sweet, so you can adjust the amounts to fit your taste. Recipe by yaichin cookpad.japan -
