A History of the Sufganiyot:⁠ .⁠ After the Jews rose up and drove their Greek/Syrian oppressors out of Jerusalem in the 2nd century, they wanted to purify and rededicate the temple. This required lighting the menorah, but there was only enough oil for the lamp to burn for one day. It ended up lasting for eight. The Jews called it a miracle - and so became the tradition of eating delicious things fried in oil on Hanukkah.⁠ .⁠ The establishment of Caribbean colonies in the 16th century brought cheap sugar to Europe, causing a pastry revolution, and spreading a love of jelly across the continent. During that time, Polish Jews started adding jelly to the doughnuts that they ate on Hanukkah. When they migrated to Israel in the early 20th century, they brought their delicious jelly-filled doughnuts with them.⁠ .⁠ Until the 1920s, sufganiyah and latkes were of comparable popularity in Palestine during Hanukkah. The Histadrut, Israel's national labor union, pushed to replace the homemade latke with the sufganiyah as Israel's 'quintessential Hanukkah food' in order to provide more work for its members and boost the local economy. Commercial bakeries began selling sufganiyot days and weeks before Hanukkah began, lengthening the employment period, and their effort was successful - sufganiyot became the most popular food for Hanukkah in Israel.⁠ .⁠ At TLV, we serve them year round - with traditional jam, rose water, or turkish coffee.⁠ What's your favorite flavor?⁠
