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!
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?
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.
Qaws- The candy machines at YW headquarters have been broken for a while so we are stuck with chulent, kugel (and coffee). :}
postsemgirl: my sisters love chulent too, they can't get enough of the way i make it!
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!
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. :)
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!
What interesting things have you found in different chulents that you've had?
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.
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 think that it's really funny that so many people (including me) like chulent very very much!
my good deed of the day
chulent
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?
