What is Rugelach?
Rugelach is a traditional Jewish pastry originating from Eastern Europe, particularly popular in Jewish communities in Poland. The name "rugelach" comes from the Yiddish word "rugel," meaning "royal," which reflects its rich and delightful nature.
Rugelach is typically made by rolling a cream cheese or sour cream-based dough into a thin sheet, which is then spread with various fillings. Common fillings include fruit preserves, nuts, cinnamon, sugar, raisins, or chocolate. The dough is then cut into triangles, rolled into a crescent shape, and baked until golden brown. The result is a flaky, tender pastry with a deliciously sweet and sometimes tangy filling.
Rugelach can be enjoyed as a dessert, snack, or even as part of a festive celebration, making it a beloved treat in many Jewish households and beyond.
