Cholent or Schalet (Yiddish: טשאָלנט, romanizedtsholnt or tshulnt or lang-he, lit.'צ'ולנט') is a traditional slow-simmering Sabbath stew in Jewish cuisine that was developed by Ashkenazi Jews first in France and later Germany,[1] and is first mentioned in the 12th century.[2] It is related to and is thought to have been derived from hamin, a similar Sabbath stew that emerged in Spain among Sephardic Jews and made its way to France by way of Provence.[1]
