Chulent used to be an exclusive food for shabbos. Now, people eat chulent all the time. Any time. Day or night.
Yeshivos serve chulent many times a week. lunch, dinner, onegs, melava malka’s, snacks. You name it…
What do you think…?
i could eat cholent everyday! i can’t get enough of it!
nothing wrong with it, but isnt there supposed to be a food special for shabbos?
When I saw this thread I got so excited. My favorite food is chulent it is really really good! I could eat it everyday. The school where I teach (a boys school) gives chulent out as a prize to the kids and they love it.
-Kapusta the way chulent came into being is that the Tzidokim believed in only Torah shbichsav and they held that you can’t have a fire burning on Shabbos so the Chachamim said that we should eat something hot on Shabbos so that we show we are not like them. In poland and Russia they had a lot of potatoes and…….thats where chulent came from!
People think it’s strange that I am a girl and I love chulent but I don’t see that as a contridiction
What’s with these mods? 42 can’t get enough kugel and 55 can’t get enough chulent! and 72(me)can’t get enough coffee
Do the mods get food at home?
postsem, yes, I’m not saying because of that, just any food thats especially for shabbos.
which mod cant get enough kapusta? trust me when I say that we all have more than enough kapusta
qaws: the bosses always shnore food! 😉
kapusta-I didn’t think that there is food that you can only eat on Shabbos. In my house we eat leftovers and that is food from Shabbos. I don’t know about you.
postsemgirl: my sisters love chulent too, they can’t get enough of the way i make it!
uh oh, am I on a mods bad side? (sniffle, sniffle)
postsem, I’m not saying that, I mean shabbos is supposed to be special, like special food you wouldnt have during the week. Cake, better wine, etc
55, try some lasagna.

postsemgirl: my sisters love chulent too, they can’t get enough of the way i make it!
ahhem… I think we have some self ego-boosting going on here.
Oh, there’s a chuent thread too! Haha.
What day is it today?
ames: nope, not one bit!
ok, this week I will do something diff, instead of putting my kugel in my chicken soup, I will have my kugel on a plate and I will pour a few spoonfuls of soup on top of it and have a carrot and celery from the soup on the side…
ames- If it’s good why change?
kapusta- yea I get it
jax- you’re total right. Guys make a better chulent! And don’t worry about your ego! My husband better know how to make chulent!
mod 72- lol!
…right next to the kapusta…
72: have you ever tried putting potatoes in the chicken soup while it cooks the soup?! while adding all the soup condiments, add a like 2-3 whole potatoes! it tastes delicious! & can also be served as a side dish too!
Jewess: everyday is chulent day!
Ames, do you eat mazza every week?
Jax, yeah right.
Ames, so that’s something we could eat every week and not get bored of. 🙂
Ames, kugel is a staple, you have variety with meat, chicken and whatever, but not potato kugel.
It’s so funny to me. I never ate potato kugel growing up and I still never really had a good piece (I guess, Jax), but my siblings who also never ate potato kugel love it. I guess I’m kugel deprived.
This is so confusing. I posted a kugel comment in the cholent thread.
By the way, is it CHOLENT or CHULENT?
Ames, I know I take breaks from it, but technically I could eat it every week.
jewess- oy! deprived child!
Thanks Kapusta. 🙂 I’ll be bringing really spicy fish.
jewess- chulent
I had cholent on Pesach once with matzah cooked in it. It was mushy and gross.
55, are you looking for a good recipe?
broccoli, wasnt even bad. anyone ever try it with kapusta?
jax- I want to taste your chulent.
jewess, it’s CHULENT!
and there’s no such thing as sick of chulent. it just doesn’t happen.
and i’m laughing at how we finished a whole page already.
I know that wasn’t 72 because he already turned down my invite,
55, you too are invited to the kapustas for shabbos. bring some cole slaw with you.
I think that it’s really funny that so many people (including me) like chulent very very much!
my good deed of the day
chulent
postsem, its classic jewish food, like a bagel and lox.
55, I invited you, I guess that means you’re on your way because you disappeared.
maybe…
kspusta- I don’t like bagel and lox
ames- I don’t think so. Chulent is just really really good
chulent is not really chulent during the week. it’s called stew. and the taste is not the same taste because of shabbos. but go ahead and enjoy it anyway.
Ha Ha- you people made my day- starting a thread on Chulent (cholent doesn’t quite have the same ring to it!!!)
Yes- by far and away my favorite food ( although I wouldn’t say no to a jumbo steak!!! Mmmmmmmmmm)
postsemgirl- chill it is totally normal for a girl to love chulent in fact my wife sisters and mother love it so….(yeah suppose my wife liking it doesn’t make it normal!!!- JK)
you really believe that? i don’t buy it. and kugel is way better on friday so it can’t be shabbos
Noitallmr- Thanks.
Moish- totaly.
ames- pardon my ignorance, but what is mazza?
