Menu for Breaking the Yom Kippur Fast
 
This meal varies according to family tradition and individual preference. In my house, we break the fast with challah and chicken soup. Then, after a while, we have a meal of the previous evening's leftovers, including the treasured kreplach. What could be bad? Others prefer a dairy meal, which might include the following traditional foods:
 
Tea and orange juice
Bagels with cream cheese and smoked fish
Noodle kugel (recipe)
Herring in sour cream
Sliced tomatoes, cucumber, and onion
Honey cake (recipe)
Poppy seed chocolate chip cake (recipe)
Fresh fruit
