Hamantashen for Purim My Mother’s recipe for Hamantashen, a traditional Purim treat, is a three-cornered pastry filled with mohn (poppy seed) or other sweet filling. 1 cup sugar 4 cups flour (plus more for rolling out the dough) 1 cup butter 1 tsp. Baking powder 1 tsp. salt 2 eggs 1 egg, beaten (I just use the egg white) 1/2 cup orange juice a variety of fillings (poppy seed, jam, etc.) Cream sugar and butter. Add one egg and juice and mix well. Blend with dry ingredients and form into a ball. (Add more flour if dough is too sticky.) Divide into four parts. Roll out each part very thin (approx. 1/8 inch) on a floured surface. With the rim of a glass or cup (depending on the desired size) cut into the dough to make circles. Place on greased cookie sheet. Put 1/2 -2/3 tsp. filling in the middle of each circle. To shape into triangle, lift up right and left sides to meet at the center, above the filling. Lift bottom side up to center to meet other two sides. Pinch sides together firmly, forming a filled triangle. (You should still be able to see the filling in the middle.) Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Brush pastry with egg white before baking. Bake at 350 degrees for approximately 20 minutes. Yields 4-5-dozen Hamantashen.
