ISRAEL OUTDOORS PRESENTS:Deconstructing the Sabich Sandwich

COOKING | Deconstructing the Sabich Sandwich
SUNDAY, FEBRUARY 7 @ 1pm ET / 10am PT
The origin story of this popular sandwich begins with Iraqi Jews, who came to Israel in the 1940s and 1950s as refugees. On Shabbat, when no cooking is allowed, Iraqi Jews ate a cold meal of precooked fried eggplant, boiled potatoes, and hard-boiled eggs. Those essential building blocks – combined with other Israeli salads, dressings, and spices and stuffed into pita bread – have been transformed into the mighty sabich sandwich. Join chef Harry as he breaks down the secret of a savory and sabich street sandwich. Ingredient list provided if you're planning to cook along!

TOUR | The Miracle and Genius of Water in Israel
THURSDAY, FEBRUARY 4 @ 3pm ET / 12pm PT
For millennia, desert nations have struggled to supply water in dry conditions. Join expert guide, Ami Braun, as we explore how the challenge of water was approached in ancient Israel....and how the modern State of Israel has taken water management to the next level. Together, we'll learn how the National Water Carrier works, how Israel supersized ocean desalination technology, how the invention of drip irrigation transformed desert agriculture, and how Israel conserves its wastewater and rain run-off. Through these novel technologies and investments, Israel has been able to sustainably meet the water needs of nearly 9 million people while supporting a thriving desert agriculture economy. Now that's a real-life miracle!
