Does anyone know the reason why we eat stuffed cabbage on Simchas Torah?
October 20, 2019 12:00 pm at 12:00 pm #1793739lowerourtuition11210ParticipantI have heard that since we lein vzos haberacha and the hebrew word for cabbage כּרוב which has the same osiyos as בּרוך.
October 20, 2019 1:05 pm at 1:05 pm #1793751GadolhadorahParticipantBecause all the other great food with a heimeshe taam had already been committed to other yom tovim and the gadolim turned thumbs down on sushi.

October 22, 2019 8:15 pm at 8:15 pm #1793897takahmamashParticipantWe didn’t have stuffed cabbage. Come to think of it, we didn’t last year, either.

I said maybe because kitsch is in the ground saying it

So we eat food which are rolled up.October 23, 2019 10:24 am at 10:24 am #1794057Old Crown HeightsParticipantIf you make large stuffed cabbage rolls and small stuffed cabbage rolls and serve one of each side by side it looks like a Torah scroll at the end/beginning of the cycle.

When I was back in school, one of our rebbeim would frequently challenge the class to come up with “creative” inyanim as to explain some really arcane minhagim. It was actually fun and you would have been amazed at some of the rationales offered (e.g. cooked cabbage has a smell like that of the schach and décor of a very wet succah by the last of a rainy scuccos).

Kohl is german for cabbage and we then cook it in water (play on the words to say in yiddish kohl mit vasser)
October 23, 2019 11:40 am at 11:40 am #1794129☕️coffee addictParticipantKitsch should be korach instead
October 23, 2019 1:03 pm at 1:03 pm #1794161laughingParticipantBecause it’s rolled like the torah
