Purim bread, commonly known as "Hamantaschen," originates from Eastern European Jewish communities. The pastry is traditionally made for the Jewish festival of Purim, celebrating the story of Esther. Hamantaschen are typically filled with sweet fillings like poppy seeds, fruit preserves, or chocolate. The name is derived from "Haman," the villain in the Purim story, and "taschen," which means "pockets" in Yiddish, reflecting the shape of the pastry.
