how to say “yeast cake” in Hebrew
עוּגַת שְׁמָרִים
I have a Hungarian-Israeli grandmother. She makes delicious goulash, paprika chicken and other signature Hungarian dishes.
But the best of her kitchen is her neighborhood-famous yeast cake – עוּגַת שְׁמָרִים .
.Broken down:
עוּגָה means cake, while עוּגַת means cake of
means cake, while עוּגַת means cake ofשְׁמָרִים means yeast
means yeastSo עוגת שמרים means literally, cake of yeast.
For example:
סַבְתָּא שֶׁלִּי מֵכִינָה אֶת עוּגַת הַשְּׁמָרִים הַטּוֹבָה בָּאָרֶץ.
My grandmother makes the best yeast cake in the country.
