SUMMARY:Cooking with The Jewish Food Society
DESCRIPTION:Prepare culturally Jewish dishes\, spend time in community\, and learn about the family story behind each recipe. This in-person cooking workshop\, led by two Jewish Food Society team members\, will include making three dishes from the Jewish Food Society archive and cookbook\, reflecting the diversity of Jewish life and experience (each recipe comes from a family with a different background and traditions). After making the dishes in smaller teams\, the group will come together to enjoy the dishes they made and discus relevant themes that the stories highlight such as immigration\, identity\, and resilience. \n\n\n\nShowcasing diversity is central to Jewish Food Society work. It allows them to tell a story that is more resonant to more people\, and it challenges false perceptions with positive celebrations of the ethnic\, cultural\, racial and gastronomic diversity held within the community. \n\n\n\nPresenter Bios:\n\n\n\nYael Raviv joined Jewish Food Society as COO in 2021. She is the author of Falafel Nation: Cuisine and the Making of National Identity in Israel (2015) and numerous articles on food and culture.
