Tu B'Shevat recipes

Tu B’Shevat is the Jewish New Year for Trees. Originally a date for calculating agricultural taxes, it has transformed into a celebration of trees which has been observed for at least 400 years.

Traditionally, tree-grown fruits and nuts are eaten to mark this festive day. Here is a selection of fruity recipes and ideas to help you celebrate Tu B'Shevat.

Overhead image of chocolate-coated tahini date truffles, some plain, some sprinkled with sesame seeds, some with desiccated coconut and some with cocoa powder, on a blue and white patterned plate. The plate is partly resting on a cream coloured cloth with blue edging, and part of a serving utensil can be seen to the right. Sesame seeds are scattered on the tabletop beside the plate.
