Continuing the meal (Seudat HaMafseket)
Jews who observe Yom Kippur fast have a tradition of eating Seudat HaMafseket ( breaking the meal). The meal is generally simple and it is clever in that it contains fibre-rich low-sodium food that provides them with empty lasting energy . Giora Shimon’s family usually has a meat meal for lunch, then a lighter dairy meal in the evening just before. However, if you prefer, you can stick to a less complicated lunch and choose a menu like one of the two below for your pre-cooking time.
