Dairy foods are frequently served on Chanukah as a reminder of the bravery of Yehudis.
A dollop of sour cream is out of the question if you're allergic to milk.
Tofutti makes a nice non-dairy sour cream (soy-based).
Some non-dairy yogurts and sour creams are nut-based so watch out if you're nut allergic.
Here are some cool, smooth, and savory options to top off those crispy latkes.
Non-dairy Latke Toppings:
Tofutti sour cream (garnish with parsley or dill for added flavor)
Applesauce
Leek and Mushroom Sauce
Salsa (home-made or out of the jar)
Hot Pepper Jelly- Levana Kirschenbaum
Thank you for this post. Our community of singles with food allergies recognizes all cultures. I'd wanted to write about Hanukkah from an allergen viewpoint and your suggestions fit nicely in.
