Rugelach (Template:IPAc-en Script error: No such module "Respell".; Template:Langx, Template:Langx, or Template:Langx and Template:Langx rōgalaḵ)[1] is a filled baked confection originating in the Jewish communities of Poland.[2][3][4] It has become a popular treat among Jews in the diaspora and in Israel.[5]
Traditional rugelach are shaped into a crescent by rolling a triangle of dough around a filling.[6][7] Some sources state that the rugelach and the French croissant share a common Viennese ancestor, crescent-shaped pastries commemorating the lifting of the Turkish siege,[8] possibly a reference to the Battle of Vienna in 1683. This appears to be an urban legend, however, as both the rugelach and its supposed ancestor, the Kipferl, predate the Early Modern era, while the croissant in its modern form did not originate earlier than the 19th century (see viennoiserie). This leads many to believe that the croissant is simply a descendant of one of these two.
An alternative form is constructed much like a strudel or nut roll, but unlike those, the rolled dough and filling are cut into slices before baking.[9]
Etymology
The origin of the word comes from the Polish word rogaliki. The Script error: No such module "Lang". ending (Script error: No such module "Lang".) indicates plural, while the Script error: No such module "Lang". (Script error: No such module "Lang".) can be a diminutive, as, for example, Script error: No such module "Lang". (Script error: No such module "Lang"., villages) is the plural of Script error: No such module "Lang". (Script error: No such module "Lang"., village), the diminutive of Script error: No such module "Lang". (Script error: No such module "Lang"., town). In this case, the root means something like "twist" so the translation would be "little twists," a reference to the shape of this pastry.[8] In this context, note that Script error: No such module "Lang". (Script error: No such module "Lang".) means "corner" in Yiddish.[10] In Polish, Script error: No such module "Lang". can mean "corner", but can also mean "horn" – both the kind on an animal and the musical instrument. Croissant-shaped pastries, which look like horns, are called Script error: No such module "Lang". in Polish, see Script error: No such module "Lang".. Script error: No such module "Lang". is almost identical in pronunciation and meaning to the Yiddish word Script error: No such module "Lang"..
Alternatively, some assert that the root is Script error: No such module "Lang"., meaning "royal", possibly a reference to the taste.[11] This explanation conflicts with Yiddish usage, where the word Script error: No such module "Lang". (Script error: No such module "Lang".) is the dominant word meaning "royal".[12]
Ingredients
Rugelach can be made with sour cream or cream cheese doughs,[6][7][8] but there are also pareve variants (with no dairy ingredients),[13] so that it can be eaten with or after a meat meal and still be kosher. Cream cheese doughs are the most recent, while yeast leavened[13][14] and sour cream doughs[15][16] are much older.
The different fillings can include raisins, walnuts, cinnamon, chocolate, marzipan, poppy seed, or fruit preserves which are rolled up inside. Vanilla-filled rugelach have become popular in New York in recent decades.
In recent years, chefs have introduced savory versions of these pastries, filled with chicken and schmaltz or salmon and boursin cheese.[17]
