If we dig into the recesses of our memory, we certainly know the feeling of the day after Tisha B’av, and yet planning a Shabbat Nachamu menu right now feels like I’m planning the menu for my son’s bar mitzvah in three years. We first must experience the mourning process and remove all distraction so that we can fully focus and feel our immense loss. 

The recipes in this roundup are for when you have the headspace to consider reintroducing meat, and beautiful foods in honor of Shabbat. In the meantime, I would like to wish you all an easy and meaningful fast, and may we all see personal redemption as well as collective redemption this year.

Shabbat Shalom,

Chanie
