So touched to be able to join @freeholdhal ‘s family Seder of the 11th Plague via Zoom. Totally had not shopped for this and just made do. I learned a paschal yam is an acceptable modern substitute for shank bone. Used broccoli for karpas and kale for chazeret. Found an unopened jar of horseradish in the fridge which could well be 10+ years old. I put it out for ceremonial purposes but only took the tiniest dab for fear of botchilism. I did have apples, dates, walnuts, cinnamon, honey, and Graham’s 10-year tawny port in lieu of Manischewitz wine and I was quite pleased with the charoses. What a treat to see my old adoptive family from college years, and to be able to celebrate together in this way at this time. #food #realfood #passoverfood #plaguepassover #pesachsameach #manishtanahashanahazeh #coronadiaries #lifeinthetimeofcorona #jewishfood #jewishresilience (at Zoom) https://www.instagram.com/p/B-vw_K4ho7o/?igshid=7212dxqbh64v
