Jacques Pepin's Hanukkah Celebration

In this special episode, Jacques and Claudine celebrate the Jewish "Festival of Lights" with a light, French-inspired Hanukkah dinner menu. It begins with a sparkling Consommé Printanier with a colorful sprinkling of carrot, turnip, zucchini, and miniature Chicken Quenelles. Then it's a silky Cold Mousse of Chicken and Pistachios with a beautiful garnish set in aspic. A soulful Veal Roast with buttery braised lettuce is the hearty centerpiece of the meal. And Jacques serves it with crispy, golden Vegetable Pancakes Tempura—his homage to the traditional Hanukkah potato latke. For dessert, there's a spectacular Frozen Citrus Soufflé surrounded by a crown of freshly-baked lady fingers served alongside a classic rum-soaked Holiday Fruit Cake, brimming with Jacques' own homemade candied fruit.
