Sweet or savoury, these handheld delights will be sure to please anyone who bites into them! Moderated by Lara Rabinovitch, Jennifer will share with us how they came to explore their creativity through cooking, and even how preparing dishes has become a way for Jennfier to connect with their Jewish heritage.
