Another Hanukkah recipe; Sephardi style:

Also, I forgot to mention that one of our favorite “decorations” for Hanukkah is my husband’s homemade, lighted-up Star of David which hangs in the front window along with the electric monorah, designed by using the single electric Christmas candles. We can’t put our fire-lit menorah in a window due to curtains.
He takes 6 wire hangers and forms them into two triangles; then he wraps each triangle in a string of lights of one color (we choose blue for one and white for the other). Then he attaches them together and it gets hung up.
Thought I’d share!
Have a Happy 3rd day of Hanukkah!

I need to correct a previous post of mine, for historical accuracy. Sephardic Jews are only descendants from Spain and Portugal, the Spanish diaspora since 1492. Mizrahi Jews are those from the Middle east, northern Africa and the Caucasus region; Romaniot Jews are those from the former Byzantine Empire, the Greek speaking Jews.
They all have different food traditions and even language blends. In America, about 90% are Ashkanzi Jews, so that’s why the food traditions that we commonly associate with the Biblical Days are from the Ashkanaz community.
My husband’s family came from Eastern Europe.
Just wanted to clarify that.
