Everything You’ve Wanted to Know about Seders But Were Afraid to Ask
Have you ever been curious about the Jewish tradition of seders, ceremonial dinners held on the first nights of Passover? Maybe you’ve been invited to one and don’t know what to bring! Perhaps you’re away from home and looking for a celebration to join here in Madison? We’ve got you! Bianca Martin talks to Rabbi Laurie Zimmerman of Shaarei Shamayim about the most important food holiday in the Jewish tradition and what’s on her seder plate.
Shaarei Shamayim’s community seder is Tuesday, April 23, 2024. If you’d like to attend, email Rabbi Laurie in advance to check if there’s space at: office@shamayim.org.
Join us every Thursday as we explore Madison's food culture, from the brewers and bakers to the chefs and cheesemakers.
