Ukrainian Jewish Heritage: Hannukah in Ukraine, then and now

Hanukkah is a joyous holiday, celebrated every year by Jews around the world with the lighting of candles on a candelabra called a menorah, or hanukkiya* in modern Hebrew. Traditional Hanukkah treats includepotato latkes,calledplyatsky or deruny in Ukrainian,and sufganiyot, doughnutswith jam, called pampushky in Ukrainian. There is also a tradition to give Chanukehgelt—coins, and more recently gifts— to children. And there is a special Hanukkah dreidel (E.top,Uk.dzyga) game. A dreidel is a top, or dzyga in Ukrainian.Hanukkah is actually a relatively minor Jewish holiday. There are no religious restrictions on work … other than a few minutes after lighting the candles. In North America, however, as a symbol of Jewish identity, Hanukkah has assumed a place equal to Passover …Happy Hannukah! Hannukah Sameach!
