Presented by the Sisterhood

Sunday, February 8 | 10:00 am to 12:00 pm | $25
at Congregation Shearith Israel, 2 West 70th Street

Join us to learn about the dish common to all Sephardic kitchens from Greece, Morocco, Italy, Syria, to Turkey:

BOUREKAS:
That versatile addition to any meal!

Sephardic savory pastry aficionado Ruth Altchek will give us a history of the boureka as well as a hands-on demonstration on how to make them. We will get to eat them too!

Ruth has worked in media for more than 25 years, including as editor of The Wall Street Journal’s weekend lifestyle section. She recently published an article in the Wall Street Journal highlighting the history, traditions, and recipes of bourekas in Sephardic cuisine.

Don’t miss out! Bring your friends!
