Apr 18, 2020 at 22:02 comment added El Shteiger @DoubleAA In what way does Shelomo Alfassa misquote sources? Has there been a rebuttal to his article in Mesora?
Apr 17, 2018 at 19:18 comment added DanF Well, I see that Ta'amei Haminhagim gives far better reasons than this one.
Apr 17, 2018 at 19:12 comment added DanF This would explain, most likely, why the minhag to bake this challah is common on the first Shabbat after Pesach. I'm not sure if this would be considered "pagan" considering that there probably are very few Christians doing this activity, now. Frequently, we have adapted Gentile customs and practices and modified it in some way. Shtreimls are a good example.
Sep 18, 2017 at 6:37 comment added Double AA You're now the fourth person here to post an answer citing this article. One at least deleted his answer after checking sources and finding the article explicitly misquotes multiple sources. Obviously this practice is indeed stupid and pagan, but this article may not be an accurate rebuttal.
