The Festival of Lights celebrates the oil that burned for eight long nights. This enabled the Maccabees to find more oil after the battle when the amount that they had should have burned for one day. Fried foods are traditionally the focus of the feast. Latkes and Sufganiyot (deep-fried jelly doughnuts) are always on the menu. In this class, you will learn to make classic potato latkes; hard cider apple sauce; herbed sour cream and sufganiyot.
You will work in teams to execute the class menu. At the end of class, participants gather to enjoy the food they have prepared. Wine is served with meals in most classes. All class menus are subject to change. While a snack platter is offered in both morning and evening classes, you may want to consider a light snack before joining us for class. Students are encouraged to bring a light lunch or dinner to all pastry classes.
