אופן ההכנה

שלב 1: Mix the flour, sugar, salt and half of the lemon zest, add the cold butter in cubes and rub it in with your fingers into crumbs.
שלב 2: Add the egg and quickly work into a smooth dough. Wrap it in plastic wrap and refrigerate for at least 1 hour.
שלב 3: For the filling, bring the milk to a boil, stir in the poppy seeds, sugar and honey and cook, stirring, for 5–8 minutes until thickened.
שלב 4: Remove from the heat, stir in the butter, raisins and the rest of the lemon zest and let cool completely.
שלב 5: Preheat the oven to 180 °C. Roll the dough out to a thickness of 3 mm and cut out rounds 7–8 cm in diameter.
שלב 6: Place a teaspoon of filling in the center of each round. Fold the edges in on three sides to form a triangle and pinch the corners firmly; leave the filling visible in the middle.
שלב 7: Transfer the pastries to a baking sheet lined with parchment paper and brush with beaten egg.
שלב 8: Bake for 12–15 minutes, until the edges are lightly golden. Let cool on the baking sheet.

טיפים

If the corners open during baking, chill the shaped pastries in the fridge for 15 minutes before baking.
The filling must be thick and cold, otherwise it will run out.

היסטוריה ומקורות

מקרא

The Book of Esther prescribes sending gifts of food to one another on Purim (mishloach manot) and giving gifts to the poor; sweet pastries have long been part of this.¹

מנהג עממיאשכנזים⁂ לאימות

The Yiddish name homentashn ("Haman's pockets") is usually explained as a pun on the German Mohntaschen ("poppy-seed pockets"). The Hebrew name oznei Haman means "Haman's ears"; in popular tradition the triangular shape is also linked to Haman's hat.²
