Purim, one of the happiest
and noisiest holidays on the
Jewish calendar, is also one of
the tastiest.
A one-•ay festivity which
will be celebrated. this year on
Feb. 27, the occasion commem-
orates the deliverance of the
Jews from a massacre planned
by the Persian prime minister,
Haman. The rescue was achiev-
ed through the intervention of
Esther and Mordecai, as record-
ed in the Book of Esther in the
Old Testament.
One of the Purim delica-
cies traditional with the
holiday is a triangle-shaped
cake called "Hamantaschen."
Haman derives from the
name of the evil prime min-
ister and taschen derives
from the G e r m a n word
"pockets."
Alfred Parker, chief chef at
Yeshiva University, New York,
and one of the foremost au-
thorities on Jewish cooking,
says that the triangle shape of
the cakes is most likely due to
the old-fashioned three-corner-
ed hat worn by government
officials in early times. Haman,
himself, could have worn such
a hat.
Parker also volunteered his
recipe for the tasty cakes
whose preparation he will sup-
ervise for the 5,500 Yeshivah
University students at the
school's three cafeterias.
RECIPE FOR HAMANTASCHEN
1 /2 lb. sugar
1 lb. fat or margarine
1 1/2 lb. flour
2 large eggs
1 /2 teaspoon salt
teaspoon vanilla or lemon
1 teaspoon baking powder
36 ounces prune filling or poppy
seeds
Mix the sugar, fat and flour,
work in eggs and flavoring to make
the dough. Refrigerate for 1/2 hour.
Roll dough into round shapes, then
fold edges in to make triangle
shaped biscuits. Into centers place
1 oz. prune filling or poppy seeds
(with raisins and nuts if desired).
Bake in preheated oven at 350 de-
grees for 25 minutes.
Yield: 36 hamantaschen.
Chef Parker estimates
he drives about 300 miles a
week to oversee the preparation
of 10,000 kosher meals served
at the university's three cafe-
terias — Yeshiva University's
Leah and Joseph Rubin Resi-
dence Hall, Stern College for
WINER 0
Women, both in Manhattan, and
the Albert Einstein College of
Medicine in the Bronx.
Parker became a cook by
accident. At the age of 18
he was an engineering stu-
dent in his native Vienna but
was forced to flee when
Austria was invaded in 1938.
Parker went to a refugee
camp in Switzerland where he
helped out in the kitchens and
gradually began to cook. So
well did he learn his new trade
that he obtained a job in a
Zurich restaurant and, from
there, moved to the renowned
Hotel Fachschool in Lucerne.
He came to the United States
in 1947 and stepped into his
Yeshiva University role ten
y ears later.
