Amalek’s Kugel is an acronym for four kugels which together form the word Amalek.A for apple or epel (the ayin)
M for Mehl, or Flour (the mem)
L for lukshen or noodles (the lamed)
K for kartofel(potatoes) the kuf.
In Europe and in other places Chassidim serve these four kugels on the Shabbos when Parshas Zachor is read and then they eat them thereby symbolically annihilating Amalek by eating him all up.

ReplyDelete"By eating thrm all up"?
ReplyDeleteIsnt canabalism assur according to everyone, even chassidim?
Didn't u read "symbolically annihlating". I like it. It's actually a mitzva to annihlate Amalek. We cannot do it lmaaseh now, so we do it by suggestion.
DeleteI never heard of this "minhag". Sounds like a hoax
ReplyDeleteAnd I did hear of it.
DeleteSo I guess it's not a hoax.
Right?
My great grandparents and grandparents did. Please be sensitive when speaking about people's minhagim. If you never heard of something ask and research, don't just flippently disregard. Your knowledge isn't the end all! Yes, it's a chassidish mintage, yes, food is used as part of our minhagim as well.
DeleteWell, maybe you're a hoax too!
DeleteI am from Europe and I never heard of this
