An important part of the Chanukah tradition is to serve foods fried in oil, which symbolizes a great miracle.
Faith Wolf, whom many may recognize from her Cooking with Faith classes, invites us in to her home as she bakes sufganiyot, a round, fluffy jelly doughnut and traditional Chanukah favorite.
With step-by-step instructions during her cooking demo, Faith also shares stories of growing up in Brooklyn, NY, a half block down the street from her grandparents.
“I would visit with my grandparents almost every day. I spent a fair amount of time in my grandmother’s kitchen which was pepto bismol pink. She would produce enormous quantities of any kind of food you could imagine,” shares Faith.
“And I remember playing dreidel with my Zayde. The older I get, the more the childhood memories evoke warm feelings.”
Today, Faith looks forward to celebrating with her children and grandchildren, passing on her family traditions and creating new ones together.
