Encyclopedia > Momos

In Greek mythology, Momos was a minor god of satire. His name is related to μομφή, meaning 'blame' or 'censure'. He is depicted in classical art as lifting a mask from his face.


Momos is featured in one of Aesop's fables, where he is to judge the handiwork of three gods (the gods vary depending on the version). However, he is jealous of what they have done and derides all of their creations. He is then banished from Olympus by Zeus for his jealousy.


This fable is the main source of our knowledge of Momos. Aristotle referred to the fable in his zoological work, The Parts of Animals.


Sophocles wrote a lost satyr play called, Momos.


His name is also spelt Momus (http://www.pantheon.org/articles/m/momus.html).

Momo, however, is a wrench in the plans of the Timesaving Bank thanks to her special personality.
Momo's adventure will take her from the depths of her heart, where her own time flows from in the form of lovely hour-lilies, to the lair of the Men in Grey themselves, where the time people believe they save is hoarded.

There are many, many different choices for momo shapes, and I will teach you two of the most common, the basic round momo, and the half-moon shapes.
For this style, you begin the same as with the round momo style, holding the flat circular dough in your left hand and putting a tablespoon of filling in the middle of the dough.
As you are making your momo's, you will need to have a non-stick surface and a damp cloth or lid handy to keep the momo's you've made from drying out while you're finishing the others.
