About

Manischewitz and Rokeach are names you might think of when you think of the supermarket kosher aisle. But Crisco?

Join Yiddish Book Center's Lisa Newman as we explore the ways in which these big brands and others have helped shape American Jewish cuisine. Award-winning chef Michael Leviton (Lumiere, Lehrhaus) will help us explore some of the 1930s cookbooks and recipes that define American Jewry.

Join us for an evening of conversation, cooking demonstration, and tasting as we explore the ways in which ingredients and traditions come together to create the taste of American Jewry.
