When I was brainstorming a list of ideas for Rosh Hashana giveaways, something-having-to-do-with-honey naturally topped my list.
Only I don’t didn’t have any “honey connections”.
Imagine my delight when I saw that the National Honey Board was one of the sponsors of a blogging conference I attended earlier this month.
Besheret!
And wouldn’t you know that the first thing I did (well, second, after sampling their incredible honeys) was to chat them up about sponsoring a giveaway on KOAB!
I’m happy to announce that one lucky Kosher on a Budget reader will win this gorgeous honey gift basket (retail value: $100), which includes:
- 3 Honey varietals (these honeys are incredible – and the difference in flavors is amazing!)
- Canvas tote bag
- Honey recipe books (and check out all their honey recipes online!)
- Water bottle
- Honey candle
- Orange blossom honey sticks
- Honey drizzler
- Honey spatula
- Honey lip balm
- Honey notepad and pens
- Honey apron
- Guide to substituting honey when cooking and baking magnet
Here’s how to enter the Honey Basket Giveaway:

I love to use honey in my challah. It will be especially meaningful for Rosh Hashanah!
Honey cake!!! Liked and followed 🙂
I like to use honey in my chicken dishes and use honey instead of sugar in baking my challos.
Honey cookies 🙂
Use it on challah instead of an egg wash, I like to put a little honey in everything I cook, even if it is a dribble.
Liked National Honey Board 🙂
I don’t use honey in a lot of my cooking, but right before Rosh Hashana I get local, raw, whipped honey (usually don’t get other times of year because it’s way more expensive) But it is so amazing tasting and easily spreadable and we put it on everything through the holidays- apples, challah, peanut butter and honey sandwiches…. YUMMMMMMM Holiday indulgence. 🙂
I have a recipe for honey and date cake that I make for Rosh Hashana every year!
I pour honey, garlic and soy sauce over chicken, then bake. Super fast, simple, and delicious!
My peanut butter cookie recipe uses honey, and is fantastic. That’s one of our favorites.
And I’ve “liked” the National Honey Board on FB.
I alwaysake a wine honey (and orange juice) roast. Delicious.

I make honey cookies from my favorite cookbook. It’s designed for kids, so the recipes are super simple. I recently made a double batch of batter with my kids; I baked one batch, froze the rest of the dough to use later, and then we ate cookies for two days and froze the rest. Easy and delicious dessert to pull out on Rosh Hashanah (or bring as guests to a family that’s having us over).
Last year I made honey cookies and plan to continue this tradition. They are a big hit with the kids!
I love the apples and honey and challah and honey, but also put honey into my chicken.
I’m following your RH Pinterest board.

I like to use honey in teiglach for Rosh Hashana. In the past I have bought glazed doughnut holes and used honey to stack them, but this year I may go all from scratch and use this recipe from Gil Marks’ “The World of Jewish Cooking:”

I coat my roast in honey, season it and bake it in red wine. I also make cranberry-apple sauce with honey.
We love this honey chicken recipe from Quick and Kosher. http://www.joyofkosher.com/recipe/honey-chicken/
