Latkes

Cultural Context

Latkes, or potato pancakes, are a traditional Jewish dish, especially popular during Hanukkah. They symbolize the miracle of oil, commemorating the rededication of the Second Temple in Jerusalem. While the classic recipe remains beloved, modern variations include sweet potato and zucchini latkes, enjoyed by many around the world.
