3/11/14 Kitchen Science

Yesterday in kitchen science, we made jewish cookies called hamentashen. They are triangular and filled with jelly, and are usually made to celebrate Purim. We made cookies with cherry, apricot, and fig jelly. Unfortunately, there was not much science involved, but the cookies were delicious.

  1. Hamentashen means "Hamen's hat" in german. Hamen was one more person who wanted to destroy the Jews. Why he is remembered instead of forgotten and turned into a tasty treat, is odd.

  2. Maybe not chemistry, but there might be some geometry involved - no? Cherry sounds good and apricot even better.
