Food, Film and Friends: Israel

 

You don’t have to be Jewish to love Israeli cuisine! A cooking class taught by former kibbutznik Chef Johana de la Torre, followed by a screening of Thierry Binisti’s film “A Bottle in The Gaza Sea” (2011).

Menu:
Homemade Pita Bread
Shakshuka (spicy tomatoes & eggs)
Kishúim Memulaím Be’Rotev Tjina (zucchinis stuffed with lamb, pine nuts and tehina)
Broccoli Kugel (broccoli souffle)

 

“Set in 2007 and unfolding over a single year, “A Bottle in the Gaza Sea” (based on a young-adult novel by Valérie Zenatti) is a simplistic but heartfelt engagement with war as experienced by those still growing into their opinions and allegiances.” – Jeannette Catsoulis, The New York Times
