Moroccan Jewish cuisine I am from Rabat. My grandmother is Jewish. She cooked it for us. She traveled to Israel and will return in a few days. I will tell her to prepare it for us because I love this dish very much I miss you mi lala🥰🇲🇦🇮🇱 sorry for my bad English 😅
Bonjour Meryam! Je prends une chance et je me dis que peut-être en tant que marocaine vous parler le français si oui n’hésitez pas à communiquer avec moi en français sinon je vais vous laisser un message en anglais sous celui-ci j’espère que votre mamie vous fera une Dafina comme vous les aimez et bien sûr si vous avez des questions n’hesitez pas nous serions absolument ravi d’y répondre en espérant vous relire bientôt je vous souhaite une très bonne journée❤️❤️
Hi Meryam! thank you so much for your message I am not sure if you speak English or French I speak a little bit of Arabic but not enough to be able to write it fluently if you have any questions please do not hesitate I would love to help you and I really hope that your grandmother will make you the perfect dafina full of love as usual !! I hope that I will read from you again soon until next time wishing you and your family a blessed day
Hi Nat Lim! Thank you so much for your comment what kind of meat do you use usually in your dafina are you a lamb a beef or a veal lover? I would love to know more!! until next time stay safe stay blessed
Hi! I am so grateful that you answered! Chicken will become super dry; I would encourage you to try with beef for veal shank with bone or boneless!! Niuuummm! If you have cheek: that becomes soft like butter! Let me know if I can help you!
Not Jewish at all, but I like to use lamb meat on the bone, which adds a different flavor and is good with the eggs. After several hours, it comes right off the bone, and the eggs are yummy too when you unpeel them and let them simmer.
Bonjour Benjamin merci beaucoup pour votre commentaire est-ce que vous avez essayé de faire la recette de dafina et si oui comment elle est sorti? à très bientôt je l’espère et un grand shabbat shalom
I'm not Jewish but I've enjoyed several channels regarding the traditions, food, family time. I just have a question about the Cholent; why is it the shabbat lunch? Thank you for educating me😊
Hi Shelly ! thank you so much for your amazing question and I’m grateful that you have found many interesting channels here on RUclips As Orthodox Jews we eat Cholent on Shabbat lunch because since we cannot cook during Shabbat we have to prepare it before Shabbat and therefore it’s a tradition to eat cholent which means in French “chaud” which means hot and “ lent “ in a nutshell we eat something that is cooked slowly over many hours ( in a crockpot or the oven ) and baking as out to cook before Shabbat or that is warmed up for many hours On a side note, some people do not eat cholent they only eat cold food on Shabbat lunch but the vast majority will eat cholent on Shabbat out of tradition. There are of course many traditions surrounding cholent: this is one of them 😁 I hope that it answers your question if you have other questions please do not hesitate I really love these kinds of questions sending you warm wishes to you and your family
Have to admit that I'm always troubled by what time should a Cholent or Dafina be started if to be eaten at 12pm the next day? and I say that because Shabbat starts at different times in the summer vs the winter! What do you believe is the ideal time/cooking time? Thanks and interesting seeing you put the wheat in a different crock pot 😄makes sense when having so much to put in one already 😁 Hello from Montreal 👍And will look at more on your channel 😊
Hi Gail! I am so happy our paths are meeting! What a great question! I personally put my dafina/cholent on Friday morning whatever time shabbat comes in. This way i am not in a rush and the dafina/cholent has the time to cook and the potatoes to brown and everything becomes more and more yummy and infused with the special taste of shabbat! For the ble: this mini crock-pot is a game changer! you can also make it more spicy: in our house it is BRULANT /super releve aka super spicy!! so it is a plus too IMO :) Do you usually put your ble in a bag in the dafina/cholent? I would love to know! Thank you again so much Gail for your lovely comment and I am looking forward to reading from you soon! Stay safe and blessed my new friend from Montreal:) Love Sara Malka

@@gaila.8830 Hi Gail! You are right, trial and error will be the key to you success as you have difference between recipes of course but also between crockpots! for example in my crockpot from the crockpot company i know i have to cut the amount of water in half ( so i do not cover the ingredients with water at all) but with my 20$ Walmart crockpot I have to cover the ingredients with water otherwise everything burns!! what brand of crockpot do you have? THank you again for your insights:) I hope your soupy dafina days will be over very soon:)
Hello from across the pond 🇬🇧, please may I ask a question about your eggs, In some of your videos when you crack your eggs you check for blood spots, but when you boil your eggs or cook in your cholent you place the whole egg in ,how do you test them for blood spots beforehand??. Love your recipes I’m not Jewish but very interested in different religions & areal foodie Thank you for your beautiful videos & including & explaining to us non Jewish, may Gob bless you & your family peace be with you alway along with health happiness love & wealth 🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻 jacqui
Hi Jacqui! Good question! There’s a rule in kosher laws that states that if the majority of an item is kosher, then the totality is kosher ( it’s more complicated than that but just to make it easier to understand) So because the majority of the commercially produced eggs do not present a blood spot then one can use them unchecked for bloodspot if they cannot check it ( like in a dafina/ cholent) I hope it helps!
Sara Goldberg hi Sara! Excellent question! We personally prefer to separate them one in a larger crockpot and the other in smalllllll slow cooker as the wheat is hot 🥵/ spicy but my mother in law adds it in the large crockpot in a cheesecloth! Do you have a small crockpot?
@@destroyraiden hi Destroyraiden! Thank you for your comment if I understand correctly your question is what is was the water for the wheat necessary? if you are talking about putting the wheat in the second mini crockpot then yes you have to put water with your wheat but if you don’t put wheat in your main crockpot with the meat 🥩 then you don’t need to add any extra water let me know if it answers your question and if or you do have any follow up questions!

Hi there- I am not Jewish, but love the look of the Dafina and would like to try it Please,why do you put the rice in a separate bag?Also do you put the eggs in raw in their shells or do you peel and hard boil them first?
Hi Camcas! Thank you for your questions: I love questions!!!

The wheat goes in the crockpot in the cooking bag or in a mini crockpot ❤️
Looks delicious

0,47 hamim co jest w tym woreczku pierwsze?czy w garnku sa 2 woreczki jeden z ryzem a drugi z...?
Shouldn't the eggs be added at the end( so not to be crushed)? The chick peas at the bottom? Have you always used ketchup (in Morocco)?
Cook on high really?
I cook in high until the PM and turn it on low just because I know my crockpot but some need to leave the temperature at low all the time
Not Jewish at all, but I like to use lamb meat on the bone, which adds a different flavor and is good with the eggs. After several hours, it comes right off the bone, and the eggs are yummy too when you unpeel them and let them simmer.
Super! Simple et efficace 👍Toda raba😉

Did both Cholent and Dafina not for Shabbat but for the last day of Hannuka and was our first time doing it my mom and I 😊
Dafina was "soupy " (lots of broth indide the crock pot) not sure if it was normal but on the plate it looked like what I'm used to eating 😁
The Cholent was not soupy or soggy so to me it was good like that even though all kinds exists
I think in the end it will be to do the same recipe over and over with changes of water levels, timing etc and see ( trial and error)
