Holidays a Time to Serve Special Foods
(Continued from Page 12)
Eastern European
Jews would eat dried
fruits such as dates, figs
and raisins and almonds.
Almonds are eaten since
it is the first fruitbearing
tree to bloom in -the late
winter.
Another customary fruit
to eat is carob (bokser in
Yiddish) or St. John's
Bread, also symbolic of the
ties between the Jewish
people and the land of Israel
where it grew.
PURIM
Purim is the 14th of Adar,
March 12. On this day
one must perform five
mitzvot (deeds). Two of
these mitzvot relate to food.
The sending of portions of
baked goods, candy, wine or
liquor to friends is called
mishloakh manot (in He-
brew) and shalakh monos
(in Yiddish). This is said to
come from Mordechai's let-
ter to the Jews of Shushan
telling them to send por-
tions to one another.
Although not a mitzva, it.
has certainly become a
long-honored tradition, dat-
ing perhaps from the 12th
Century, to eat the three-
cornered pastries of sweet
dough, filled with pop-
pyseeds and honey.
Western European Jews
made poppyseed cookies;
Italian Jews, ciambella di
Purim; Dutch Jews called
theirs hamapsoren and
sprinkled-them with sugar;
Germans called them
hamanmuetzen; Swiss,
schunzuchen; Austrian,
heizenblauzen; Greeks, di-
ples; Turkish, shamleya.
The idea of filling pas-
try with plum or prune-
jam appears to come
from the 18th Century
when the Jews of
Bohemia were rescued
and a plum merchant was
saved from execution.
Sephardim tended to
make sweet cakes filled
with almonds and nuts,
marzipan candies, whole
egg cake and pancakes.
Jews of Salonika and Istan-
bul often filled pastry with
meat. European Jews, like
on Sukkot and Yom Kippur,
eat kreplakh.
PESACH
- Pesach or Passover falls
on the 14th of Nissan to the
21st, April 11-18.
Ashkenazim prohibit be-
ans, peas, corn and peanuts
as well as wheat, barley, rye
and oats. Sephardim do not
accept this ruling, and so
they eat rice and millet
which rot but do not fer-
ment.
Although most of the
symbols are fairly standard
among communities,
Tribute to UJA
NEW YORK (JTA)
The Israel Philharmonic
Orchestra is dedicating the
opening of its 43rd season to
the United Jewish Appeal
in a tribute to the UJA's
40-year lifeline partnership
with the Jewish people and
the state of Israel.
Leonard Bernstein will be
on the podium for the au-
spicious occasion in
Jerusalem Oct. 7.
Ashkenazim make their
charoses (symbolic of the
color of clay or mortar which
the Jews made as slaves in
Egypt) with apples, nuts,
cinnamon and wine; Yeme-
nites use chili powder;
those of North African ori-
gin add other spices.
Lamb is customarily
eaten on Passover by many
Sephardim and North Afri-
cans to symbolize the sac-
rifice of the pascal lamb
which took place on the eve
of the Exodus. Yemenites
eat a soup stew during the
holiday; Turkish Jews
make a casserole with
layers of .matza, cheese or
meat and vegetables.
Particularly tradi-
tional among
Ashkenazim are knaid-
lach (matza meal dumpl-
ings), fried matza (matza
brei), matza meal- pan-
cakes (chremslach), pud-
ding (kugel).
The first Sabbath after
Passover, some make a
halla with a key on top to
show the state of release
which remains open for the
month after the festival.
thought to be more palata-
ble.
Another legend says that
when the Jews returned to
their tents after receiving
the Torah, they were so
tired they didn't have
energy to wait until meat
was prepared so they ate
only dairy.
;12110
Sephardim eat lamb,
cheese and cheese and
spinach dishes. Others eat
cheese cake, blintzes, beet
borsht with sour cream, sor-
rel soup (schav) and
cucumber soup. Knishes
(dough filled with meat,
potatoes or cheese) and
strudel are also popular.

SHAVUOT
Shavuot, 6th of Sivan,
May 31, is the beginning of
the fruit harvest and com-
memorative of the giving of
the Torah. Eating dairy
dishes is associated with a
figure of speech in the Bible
which compares the Torah
to milk and honey. Since the
holiday falls at the end of
spring when the weather is
warm, dairy dishes are also
