What is the definitive guide to celebrating Purim by Janis Elspas?

Celebrating Purim involves a few key traditions. First, it's customary to read the Book of Esther, also known as the Megillah. This is done worldwide on the day of Purim.

Another tradition is making and eating Hamentashen, a type of homemade cookie. The name translates to Hamen’s Hat, which is where the expression “I’ll eat my hat” comes from.

In addition, it's common to enjoy some candy during the celebration. For instance, I've celebrated with Gimbal's Fine Candies' candy hearts.

Remember, Purim is a time for family celebration and embracing Jewish culture and traditions.
