This episode of Big Blend Radio's "Cooking with Ruth" Show features Ruth Milstein who talks about the history of the Jewish holiday of Purim and how it is celebrated, and how to make Hamantaschen, a triangular filled-pocket pastry that refers to Haman, the villain in the Purim story. In 2024, Purim is celebrated the evening of March 23 until the evening of March 24. In Jerusalem, where Shushan Purim is celebrated, the festival takes place on the following day, from March 24 to March 25.
