COOKING | Old School Jewish Cookies

Presented by Harry Rubenstein

Rainbow cookies. Linzer tart cookies. Mandelbrot. We’ll tackle these iconic Jewish cookies in a super-sized 1.5 hour baking extravaganza. While these cookies are decidedly old school, we’ll apply some “new school” techniques and flavors to take these treats to new levels of cookie awesomeness. Ingredient list provided if you're planning to cook along!

From the very start of the pandemic, food trends have taken over our newsfeeds. From sourdough starter to shallot pasta to the Tik Tok tortilla hack, we haven’t been able to resist testing out all the quarantine food trends over the past year.

For this workshop, we’re taking inspiration from some of these trends and turned our favorite quarantine recipes into out-of-the-box hamantaschen flavours! Join us as we bake Banana Chocolate Hamantaschen and Dalgona Coffee Hamantaschen. We’ll also share our tips for making the perfect hamantaschen every time!

After we’ve baked our hamantaschen, Jamie Elman and Eli Batalion of YidLife Crisis will join us for a Purim shpiel.

The event is pay-what-you-can, with a suggested amount of $18.

The Greater Miami Jewish Federation has established an Emergency Relief Fund to assist people affected by the extreme and deadly winter weather conditions in Texas. The historic freeze has left millions of people across the state without power, water and basic supplies.

As always, Federation will absorb all administrative costs so that 100 percent of funds collected will be used to provide emergency grants and loans, food, shelter and essential necessities as people struggle with the current crisis and its aftermath.
