The Bake Sale Items (evolving list)
Hamantash. A hamantash is an Ashkenazi Jewish triangular filled-pocket pastry associated with the Jewish holiday of Purim. The name refers to Haman, the villain in the Purim story. Contributed by Dan Loundy.
Barmbrack bread
Irish. Traditional. Eaten all year round, but particularly at Hallowe’en, when it has a gold ring baked in it; whoever gets the ring will be married within a year. Barm is the old word for yeast. This version is made with black tea.
Houska – Czech braided bread. Jamie’s son-in-law’s speciality. Houska is a traditional bread roll baked and consumed in the Czech Republic. Typical ingredients include wheat flour (but other types can be used), water, yeast and salt. They are often topped with poppy seeds, caraway seeds, linseeds or sea salt. ” The word houska comes from the Czech word husa which means goose. A houska reportedly looks like a roasted goose, hence, the name.” -Judy Riepl
Challah
In most of the modern Jewish world, the term “challah” now refers to a soft yeasted bread with an even, airy crumb. (NYTImes) Contributed by the Peters Family
