History


Dipping apples into honey as a celebratory dish and ceremony for Rosh Hashanah likely originated with the Ancient Israelites.[1]


Overview


Apples and honey consists of raw apples sliced and served with a separate dish of honey. A blessing is said in Hebrew over the apples and honey, to ask for a “Sweet New Year”, and the apple is then dipped into the honey and eaten.[1] Dipping apples in honey is a minhag and is not dictated by the Tanakh or the Talmud.[2]


In American-Jewish Culture


Ahead of Rosh Hashanah in English-speaking Ashkenazic schools, young schoolchildren learn the "dip the apple in the honey" song (to the tune of Oh My Darling, Clementine).[3]
