🍩 Frying Up the Light: Chanukah Kitchen Workshop

All Ages

Led by Julie Ratowitz

2026-12-061:00 PM - 3:00 PMBeth Emet, 1224 Dempster , Kitchen, Evanston, IL

Chanukah reminds us of the miracle of oil—how a small amount of light can grow and endure. Across Jewish communities, that miracle is celebrated through foods fried in oil, each with its own story and flavor. In this hands-on cooking workshop, participants will prepare and taste classic Chanukah dishes such as sufganiyot, latkes, and global variations from the Jewish diaspora. Along the way, we’ll explore the traditions, histories, and creativity behind these beloved foods. Come ready to connect through shared tradition, create delicious Chanukah treats, and collaborate in a joyful, hands-on culinary experience.
