Anyone else baking/cooking for Purim here?

I'm making roast chicken and vegan moussaka for a festive Purim brunch this weekend.

No. I don’t like Judaism and think it is detrimental to society.

So we're all wondering.
What is the big, Purim sacrifice gonna be this year?

[Anonymous No.12062250]

the blood of virgin girls and foreskins.

>>12062236
Yes, it is a traditional food for the spring holiday of Purim.

>>12062240
Jews do not practice blood rituals (ever); it is strictly forbidden), or animal sacrifice anymore.

>Purim (/ˈpʊərJm/; Hebrew: About this soundפּוּרִים (help·info) Pûrîm "lots", from the word פור pur (גורל / fate),[2] related to Akkadian: pūru) is a Jewish holiday that commemorates the saving of the Jewish people from Haman, who was planning to kill all the Jews.
>Later that evening, Ahasuerus and Haman attend Esther's second banquet, at which she reveals that she is Jewish and that Haman is planning to exterminate her people, which includes her. Ahasuerus becomes enraged and instead orders Haman hanged on the gallows that he had prepared for Mordecai. The previous decree against the Jewish people could not be annulled, so the King allows Mordecai and Esther to write another decree as they wish. They decree that Jewish people may preemptively kill those thought to pose a lethal risk. As a result, on 13 Adar, five hundred attackers and Haman's ten sons are killed in Shushan. Throughout the empire 75,000 of the Jewish peoples' enemies are killed.
>The previous decree against the Jewish people could not be annulled

Wow, those cookies look great, I've never seen them with so much going. The ones you can buy in stores in Israel have way too much dough relative to the filling and I don't like them.
What are the filling OP? Post the recipe

[Anonymous No.12062290]

>>12062262
No, that Esther convinced Haman not to kill us. That we used our wits to triumph over evil.

>>12062264
>"Palestine"

How can you occupy a place that doesn't exist?

>>12062271
Very few Jews do either of these. This is like saying Christianity is bad because of what Mormons or the Amish do. Ultra-Orthodox are a small percentage of Jews and killing a chicken is not the same as like slaughtering animals ritually regularly and offering them to a priest/Rabbi. Most Jews do not do either of these customs.

Blood is forbidden to Jews to consume.

Sterility is appreciated by many Jews as we invented a variety of sterile circumcision equipment.

Some people are rigidly traditional and somewhat superstitious in all religions.

I used brown butter and toasted sugar.

[Anonymous No.12062293]

>>12062283
the dough looks really crumbly too, almost similar to pie crust

[Anonymous No.12062296]

>>12062293
Yeah, but it was very tender, just very, very hard to form and shape.

Perhaps browning the butter did it, or maybe letting the dough chill in the fridge for 3 days did it. Or some other factor I'm not thinking of. Not sure, but I like the result except next time I would use a triangular mold so the shapes aren't all hecked up.

sure, whatever, i just thought it was weird to claim this sort of stuff isn't practiced anymore, when it is.
another question, one time i went to new york on a trip and all around the streets there were jewish boys holding something that looked like stalks of leek asking people "excuse me, are you jewish". what was that about?

[Anonymous No.12062326]

Purim is the best holiday after Halloween. Wish I was jewish so I could celebrate it....

I made hamantaschen with my mom. we did hazelnut filling and raspberry jam filling. they turned out pretty good. she only had self rising flour so the dough puffed up too much but it still tasted good. I like the ratio of filling to cookie in your pic OP, might try that next year

I'm not Jewish but my buddy got me addicted to these cookies in college. I wish I still lived in an area with a sizable Jewish population so I could buy these from the grocery store when I get off from work.

Hazelnut sounds amazing.

Yeah, I didn't add any baking soda or powder to mine which apparently is so that they hold their shape so the filling doesn't leak out.
