Whenever Nadia Tommalieh graces the kitchen at the Pantry, she brings with her the stories of her home and family in the form of delicious and heart-warming food. The holidays are the perfect time to dig into some of her favorite sweet and savory treats yourself, and to share them with those you love. In this class you’ll make ka’ak asawer (Palestinian stuffed and shaped date cookies) along with toasty barazek (sesame and pistachio cookies infused with mastic), ghraibeh, (shortbread cookies infused with orange blossom water), and kobez el Eid (seasoned, cheese-stuffed and molded olive oil bread).
Please note: some classes can be adjusted for students with dietary restrictions, but many cannot. If you’re vegetarian, pescatarian, or gluten-free, you can use the drop-down menu on our events page to view the best classes to fit your needs. If a class you’re interested in doesn’t appear in that filtered view, please email us before registering and we’ll see if the class’s menu can be modified.
All class and event purchases at The Pantry are non-refundable. If you’re unable to attend, you are always welcome to transfer your ticket to a friend or family member.
We understand that plans can change. When possible, we are happy to offer a credit or a transfer to a future event if we are able to fill your spot from our waitlist. Because our classes are small and ingredient-driven, this is not guaranteed and depends on demand and timing. Cancellations made within 48 hours of the event are not eligible for credit or transfer, as we are typically unable to fill those spots on short notice.
