|
| rdfs:comment | - The Feast of Malaguena is traditionally celebrated on the third Friday in February, in celebration of Jewish Latinos. This feast is the one celebration attributed to the small intersection of the two cultures. The food at the feast includes a melting pot of traditional Jewish and Latin foods, such as plantain kugel (kugel de platanos) or tres leches made with challa (challa three milks). The feast celebrates the precarious melding of the cultures, and helps to solidify family ties on both sides.

The feast celebrates the precarious melding of the cultures, and helps to solidify family ties on both sides. Gold, yellow and Red are the colors attending the feast. These colors reflect the Spanish heritage of the feast, which has now spread to all Latin American countries. Those celebrating wear gold and red if their mother is Jewish and father Latino, and red and yellow if their father is Jewish and mother Latina. The largest celebrations of the Feast of Malaguena are held in New York City in the Lower East Side, the traditional neighborhood of both Jewish and Latin immigrants.
