The High Holidays: from Fasting to Feasting


Listen Later

Claiming he makes the best hummus in the world, Leo Campos joins Sonia Podkameni Brown and Shawn Brown to explain Jewish culinary traditions around the holidays. Let's celebrate Rosh Hashanah, welcoming 5781 with honey, apples and pomegranate; then we'll fast for Yom Kippor, and rediscover the taste of honey cake, a distant cousin of the Brazilian Pão de Mel.  Harvest ingredients are on the list for Sukkot; stuff Falafel into a loaded pita with tahini for Simchat Torah. Hungry yet? 

Hosted and produced by Nadia Furini, edited by Isa Pesce.  Background music by Francis Preve (Classique) from YouTube Audio Library.
