Yom Kippur break fast has ballooned into a significant event in the American Jewish calendar over the past couple of decades. Hype has escalated, guests have increased, and menus have become more extravagant. But at the heart of this tradition is classic Ashkenazi fare: bagels, smoked fish, blintzes, and cake. 

It’s the same sort of thing I grew up eating in the U.K., where my family’s Polish and Lithuanian roots dictated that we must bring in and break our fasts on fish. One of my most horrifying childhood memories is returning home from synagogue on Yom Kippur afternoon for a nap to find a huge glass jar on the porch housing whole, pickled herrings — heads and all — delivered by my grandmother for that evening. 

We’ve added our own twist on break fast fare, influenced by our surroundings — cups of tea with milk alongside our cake, and marmite on our bagels. Correspondingly, a Costa Rican friend serves gallopinto (rice and beans) and platanos maduros (fried plantains) alongside her lox; another friend with roots in Baghdad’s Jewish community subs zimsterne for kakas (ring-shaped caraway cookies) and babas (stuffed date cookies).

Outside the Ashkenazi community, however, there are many very different, centuries-old break fast traditions that are tempting enough to ditch the bagels for. Read on to learn more about Yom Kippur break fast traditions from around the globe.

Iraq

Iraqi Jews know that you can’t beat a drink and bite of something sweet post-fast, turning to crumbly, date-filled cookies and hariri — a homemade sweetened almond milk that’s often flavored with cardamom. Once that’s settled in the stomach, many embark on a full-on meat meal, like t’beet — a stuffed chicken and rice dish flavored with a mix of warm spices that’s prepared pre-fast and cooked low and slow until Yom Kippur is over.

Morocco 

Instead of coffee, Moroccan Jews opt for mint tea accompanied by marzipan cookies or fijuelas, fried pastries dipped in sweet syrup, before diving into a break fast feast. Many prepare a hearty tomato-based soup called harira, featuring chickpeas and/or lentils, lemon, cilantro, and often chicken or beef. Others turn to traditional Shabbat dishes like dafina (or skhina), Morocco’s cholent equivalent, flavored with saffron and stuffed with all kinds of delights – marrow bones, chickpeas, eggs, meatloaf, rice, the list goes on!

Iran

Iranian Jews keep it simple with black tea, drunk alongside a soft-boiled egg and faloudeh seeb – a refreshing apple-rosewater treat that’s somewhere between a drink and a dessert. Learn more about Persian Yom Kippur traditions here. 

Greece

Similar to Iraqi hariri, Greek Jews break their fast on a traditional homemade beverage called pepitada. Made from toasted melon seeds that are blended with water, sweetened with honey or vanilla, and flavored with rosewater or almond extract, this unique concoction is an excellent thirst-quencher. A version of avgolemono chicken soup called sopa de huevos y limon is a Yom Kippur staple, eaten either before or after the fast. 

Syria

Syrian Jews, too, opt for the “more is more” approach. Stone fruits feature heavily: refreshing apricot water serves to rehydrate the weary; dried apricots and plums are mixed with rice and ground beef and then stuffed inside zucchinis; sour cherries paired with tamarind make a sweet-sour sauce for meatballs. Others choose to ditch the meat in favor of sambusek, triangular turnovers stuffed with cheese, spinach, or chickpeas.

Costa Rica Day 4:

We are breakfast for the last time (each morning we’d get fresh fruit, Teresa would order the gallopinto (which is rice and black beans) with plantain and scrambled eggs- I got something different everyday) then headed off toward Quepos.

2 hours into our drive we got side tracked on a sketchy road - very hilly, gravel road with pot holes. Thankfully we made it through that ok and we stopped at crocodile bridge. Somebody was patrolling for parking but we skunked away when they were distracted and did not pay. We looked at some crocodiles quickly and left.

We then went to Carara National park to look for macaws. We saw 2 macaws flying overhead in the parking lot then saw 0 macaws in the park (which was disappointing) it was $10 a person and when I asked at the end they said the best time to go was in the morning.

We continued our drive and ended up seeing some macaws flying overhead which was nice. We then stopped at playa herradura which was really nice. We parked on the road and there were palm trees living the beach. On the road were restaurants that were on the beach. We ordered a red snapper (which was the first whole fish I have ever eaten) and some ceviche.

After our meal, we swam at the beach. The water was so warm! Then continued our drive to Manuel Antonio.

We stayed at a hostel- villas Jacqueline, highly recommend. I think this was our favorite place we stayed while in Costa Rica. The owner edelste an, an expat from Arizona, checked us in and gave us a coconut drink as a welcome. We ate some chips and fix with other travelers which was really nice. One of them who was super involved in the couch surfing community which was cool, he and Teresa connected over that and he told us about his road trip through Central America (bad ass). Someone hanging out with us from the hotel booked us a tour to see Manuel Antonio and we went to sleep.

[privatetastebyanita]

Selbst gemachte Cevapcici ist schon was richtig Gutes (für uns zumindest 😉) und heute habe ich sie mit Gallo Pinto (schwarze Bohnen mit Reis oder Quinoa) kombiniert und damit, ist das Essen zu einem echten Highlight geworden 👌❤️ In OÖ sind die gesunden, schwarzen Bohnen mittlerweile heimisch geworden. Ich habe meine im @efislebens.mittel.punktef gekauft. Wer die Abwechslung in der Küche liebt, sollte das Gericht mal nachkochen, bei uns war einstimmig das Feedback sehr köstlich: https://www.private-taste.at/post/cevapcici #privatetastebyanitamoser #privatetastebyanita @4kanthof.gundendorfer #cevapcici #gallopinto (hier: PrivateTaste) https://www.instagram.com/p/Ce1XwOKDdNu/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

[hello-eraineydays]

Country #2 in our food cooking tour is... Costa Rica🇨🇷! . . Main: Gallo Pinto (Costa Rican rice and beans) Dessert: Tres Leche Cake (3 milk cake) . . Results: A slightly different version of rice and beans. Of course, we didn't have one of the main ingredients, but we got a good substitute. Overall, not bad! For dessert, for lactose-intorrent people, probably not the best. Surprisingly, it was a very good cake. . . . . #whyitravel #whyimfat #costaricafood #gallopinto #tresleches #treslechescake #foodaroundtheworld #traveltoeat #hungryallthetime #homecookedmeal #dreamingoftravel #notaprofessionalchef (at Hanoi, Vietnam) https://www.instagram.com/p/CPVYlk-gs5t/?utm_medium=tumblr
