UK - London - Stamford Hill Jewish Community - Passover

Rabbi Gluck searching for homets at the beginning of Passover. After the house is cleaned from top to bottom the children in the house hide 10 parcels of homets (bread crumbs) for the man of the house to find. The tools used to search for homets are a feather to brush up the homets, a spoon to collect them and a candle to search with. A prayer is read while carrying this out. When all the homets are collected they are burnt with everything else in the house that contains yeast.
