Too Good to Passover - Pre-Passover Seder Dinner and Discussion with Jennifer Adabi

Make a traditional Seder dish, and then join Middle Eastern chef, author, and culinary instructor Jennifer Abadi (and NYWCA member) for a pre-Passover dinner event featuring Alliance-made dishes from her cookbook,Too Good To Passover: Sephardic and Judeo-Arabic Communities of Africa, Asia and Europe.

We will all make one dish for the Seder, then gather at member Jennifer Clair's Soho Home Cooking New York cooking school for a full Seder menu featuring such dishes as Moroccan Date-Raisins “Truffles”; Egyptian Slow Stewed Beef; Gibraltarian Layered Matzah Pie with Ground Beef; Algerian Broiled Pepper Salad; and Italian Almond-Pignoli Macaroons.

During the meal, Jennifer will share special stories about Passover from individuals she interviewed for her book, and explain varying Seder plate foods and rituals from the non-Ashkenazic world.

All attendees will receive TWO credits for the event. Each attendee will recieve a credit for attending, plus an additional credit to 1) prepare one recipe from Jennifer’s cookbook to share at the dinner; or 2) bring two bottles of wine; or 3) take pictures and write a short report of the evening. After signing up and making your ticket selection, Jennifer will be in contact with you about recipes (or wine suggestions) to choose from.
