Do you like to try new recipes and share the results with a small group of friends? Do you enjoy discussing a dish’s ingredients and process of creating it? If you said YES, then join us for dinner based on recipes each guest prepares from Jerusalem, by Yotam Otttolenghi and Sami Tamimi.

This is how it works. Find a copy of Jerusalem—Sonoma County Library has 9 copies, and Phyllis will share her copy. Select a meal category: appetizer, main, side or salad, or dessert, and choose a recipe for that category. Then bring that dish, sufficient for 10 people, to dinner.

Please also bring a beverage to share.

At dinner you’ll get to know each other and discuss your experiences preparing your Middle-Eastern dish. You may also nominate your own favorite cookbook for another Slow Table meal.

Please RSVP to slowfoodsonomacountynorth@gmail.com and tell us what meal category you will bring. There is room for only 10 people at the table.

Questions? Please call Phyllis at 707/433-1660.

This event was inspired by an article in the New York Times describing a cookbook club. We modified that plan to fit our Around the Slow Table format.
