According to Talmudic legend
the Torah is "as nutritious as milk
and as sweet as honey." Since
Shavuot commemorates the giv-
ing of the Torah by God to Moses,
the traditional dishes favored dur-
ing this holiday are "milhig" re-
pasts and honeyed desserts.
Since Shavuot was also the
harvest holiday in Israel, all man-
ner of greens are eaten to evoke
memories of the ancient proces-
sions of an agricultural people
who came down to Jerusalem —
whole tribes, clans and families of

gifts of first fruits for the Temple.
These were called "Bikkurim."
It is still traditional on Sha-
vuot to read the Book of Ruth,
which holds deep meaning for the
Jews who identify with Ruth in
acceptance of the Torah.
In the ghettos of Eastern Eur-
ope, the home celebrations of Sha-
vuot featured dairy dishes served
in all manner of combinations—
blintzes, pot cheese and sour
cream, kreplach with cheese, stru-
del with cheese, raisins and cinna-
mon. The desserts mostly featured
honey. Honey cake was a great
favorite and would be served with
wine for the women and children
and with brandy for the sturdier
sex.
The clinking of glasses, the ex-
pression of good wishes, the
"L'haims" and the "Gut Yon-
teffs' that went with the "Lekach
un Branfen" resound in our mem-
ories. This is to be followed by the
Shavuot feast.
