Cooking for Shabbat – an introduction to Sephardi cuisine
In Jewish life, the dinner on Friday evening is an important part of everyday life. Shabbat starts at sunset and ends on Saturday evening. It is a time to meet and eat together even if the family is not very religious. There are many traditional recipes for the Shabbat dinner that are connected to the region a family lives in or comes from. Sephardi cuisine reflects its origin in North Africa, including the local spices and flavours into a rich variety of dishes. In this course, the cook Chen Cohen will introduce you to a set of dishes from his own family tradition. Participants will learn how to prepare a menu that plays an essential part in creating the special atmosphere of a Sephardi Shabbat dinner. This cooking course is taught in English only, but the teacher also speaks Hebrew and German.
