Best Answer

Most Israel people have grandparents or great-grandparents who grew up in over 100 different countries, and when the families came to Israel, they brought not only their styles of everyday cuisine with them, but also their own traditional holiday dishes.

If you wanted to nail them all down to just a few cultural backgrounds, those might be the Ashkenazi from eastern Europe and Russia, the Sefardi from the countries of the Spanish and Portuguese empires, and the Mizrachi from what is now the Arab/Persian world. But even within one of those categories, you would find a broad spectrum of tastes and traditions, reflecting many countries and many centuries. Just like the modern state of Israel itself.


Jelly donuts have become popular for Hanukkah in Israel in recent years. For Ashkenazim, latkes (potato pancakes) are traditional.
