It is a mitzvah to eat meals in the sukkah, especially on the first night of Sukkot. Whenever this happens, it is traditional to recite the Motzi, the prayer over bread, and add a special blessing.
בָּרוּךְ אַתָּה ה' אֱלֹהֵֽינוּ מֶֽלֶךְ הָעוֹלָם הַמּֽוֹצִיא לֶֽחֶם מִן הָאָֽרֶץ
בָּרוּךְ אַתָּה ה' אֱלֹהֵֽינוּ מֶֽלֶךְ הָעוֹלָם אֲשֶׁר קִדְּשָֽׁנוּ בְּמִצְוֹתָיו וְצִוָּֽנוּ לישייב בסוקה

Blessed are You, Eternal God, Sovereign of the Universe, who brings forth bread from the Earth. Blessed are You, Eternal God, Sovereign of the Universe, who has sanctified us through your mitzvot and commanded us to dwell in the sukkah.

JEWTINA Y CO. ROSH HASHANAH RECIPE BOOK INTRO
Rosh Hashanah is one of the many Jewish holidays that calls for a celebratory meal. As we begin the new year, it is in our tradition to eat simanim (symbolic foods), say blessings, and make wishes for the year ahead.
While Rosh Hashanah Seders are more typically celebrated in Sephardi and Mizrahi homes, more Jews from around the world are starting to incorporate this practice into their New Year celebrations. This year, we want to invite folks preparing a Rosh Hashanah Seder to do so Latino/x style. In this guide, we will introduce the traditional simanim, their corresponding blessings, and a traditional Latin American recipe that features the symbolic food. Carefully selected for maximum flavor, we guarantee these foods will sweeten your new year.
Jewtina y Co. is a Jewish and Latino/x organization on a mission to nurture Latin-Jewish community, leadership and resiliency, and celebrate Latin-Jewish heritage and multiculturalism.

Each year, in preparation for the seven-day festival of Sukkot, Jews all around the world build open-air structures in their community centers, synagogues, and homes to remember the ancient huts(sukkot) that once sheltered our ancestors.
Throughout these seven days, people of all ages welcome friends and new guests into their sukkah and invite them to eat, rest and connect. This radically hospitable practice, known as hachnasat orchim, is one of the many defining values of the Jewish people. What makes Sukkot so special is that it is a marathon - one that requires you to emerge from your comfort zone and be vulnerable, compassionate and empathetic (by showing up to neighboring sukkot without an invitation, and by welcoming guests into your own) for an entire week.
The practice of welcoming the stranger, dates back to our first matriarch and patriarch, Sarah and Abraham, who would sit outside of their own sukkah in the land of Babylon and patiently wait for the opportunity to invite dusty wayfarers into their tent. They would nourish anyone in need with food, water, and shade; offer human connection; and ask for nothing in return except that they show the same compassion towards others. Today, this value remains a cornerstone of any Jewish home.
As we enter a week dedicated to welcoming others, this guide is meant to support you in elevating Jewish and Latino/x culture during the Sukkot festival, as well as inspire you to think about the ways in which you and the communities you are a part of, can be more hospitable, compassionate and loving towards others in need throughout the year.

Cada año, en preparación para el festival de Sucot, los judíos de todo el mundo construyen estructuras al aire libre en sus centros comunitarios, sinagogas y hogares para recordar las antiguas chozas (sucot) que alguna vez albergaron a nuestros antepasados.
Durante estos siete días, personas de todas las edades dan la bienvenida a sus amigos y nuevos invitados a su sucá y los invitan a comer, descansar y conectarse. Esta práctica radicalmente hospitalaria, conocida como hachnasat orchim, es uno de los muchos valores que definen al pueblo judío. Lo que hace a Sucot tan especial es que es un maratón que requiere que uno salga de tu zona de confort y sea vulnerable, compasivo y empático (presentándose en sucot ajenos y dando la bienvenida a los otros en la suya) durante la semana entera.
La práctica de dar la bienvenida al extranjero viene de nuestra matriarca y patriarca, Sara y Abraham, quienes se sentaban afuera de su propia sucá en la tierra de Babilonia y esperaban pacientemente la oportunidad de invitar a los viajeros a su tienda. Ellos alimentaban a los que necesitaban comida, agua y sombra, sin pedir nada a cambio excepto que muestren la misma compasión en el futuro hacia los demás. Hoy, este valor sigue siendo el principio que define cualquier hogar judío.
A medida que comenzamos un festival dedicado a dar la bienvenida a otros, esta guía existe para ayudarlo a elevar la cultura judía y latina durante Sucot, e inspirarlo a pensar en las formas en que usted y sus comunidades pueden ser más hospitalario, compasivo y amoroso con los extranjeros durante el resto del año.
