Round matzos on Pesach…”Esther kezel” at “Seudas Esther” (on the second day of Pesach)…beet kugel in honor of Shabbos Chol Hamoed… When it comes to Shabbos, Yom Tov, and special occasions, our menu is set in tradition. But do you know why some serve tongue on the second day of Pesach? Or the reasoning behind the minhag of eating “schlissel matzos” on the Shabbos after Pesach?
In Seudah Secrets, Rabbi Dovid Meisels, author of the popular Secrets series, shares with us hundreds of customs regarding traditional Jewish foods eaten during the months of Nissan through Av, as well as the many reasons, all culled from midrashim, Chazal, and the sefarim hakedoshim, for why we eat them. (Future books in the series will address traditional foods eaten throughout the rest of the year, as well.) Whether it’s as a segulah for health and parnassah, or to help increase one’s emunah and yiras Shamayim, every food we eat that’s steeped in mesorah provides us with infinite benefit andbrachah. The food that we eat can do so much good not only for our bodies, but for our souls, too!
There’s a treasure trove of blessing waiting for you on your Yom Tov table! With Seudah Secrets as your guide, you are hereby invited to discover it all.
