Daily Voice caught up with some of our readers for the recipes that make their Jewish New Years oh-so-sweet.

This one is a pomagranate-glazed corned beef from Gabe Gilbert of Teaneck, who is in the process of launching The Barbell Chef out of Underground Training in Tenafly. Gilbert describes it as a kosher meal-prep service tailored to athletes.

But Rosh Hashanah is no time to be counting calories...

What you'll need:

  • Desired size corned beef (keep in mind the meat will shrink during cooking)
  • 1.5C equal parts pomegranate juice, orange juice, apricot jelly

Part One:

  • Start out with a desired size corned beef, depending on how many people you'll be having. Keep in mind there is shrinkage when meat is boiled.
  • Boil the meat covered for an hour at medium flame. Make sure liquid doesn't evaporate during boiling process.

*Quick Tip: To tell when the meat is cooked, take a fork and stab in the thicker part of the roast. If the fork gets stuck and doesn't come out easily, it needs to cook longer.

Part Two:

Once the roast comes off easy on the fork, let it rest on the counter out of the pot while preparing the glaze.

  • Mix juices and jelly thoroughly.
  • Coat the roast in the glaze and bake at 350F for 20 minutes uncovered.
"The trick is getting the sauce to caramelize on top," Gilbert said. "It's delicious."
