What’s in the Cholent?

Please see my new article in The Times of Israel called “What’s in the Cholent?”

For all of you who have had the experience, I am sure that you will agree that it’s truly not a Shabbat meal without a big pot of cholent (or, should I say, dafina, as my Sephardic friends say). And it’s not a bowl of cholent that you want to eat unless you’ve hand-picked every single scoop of it yourself, even if you don’t quite know what it is you’re looking for to begin with.
