Shavuot
Very soon, we’ll be celebrating Shavuot again. It is customary to study the Torah and thank the land for its first fruits during the holiday. On the night of Shavuot, the Torah is studied throughout the night as a gift to all the nights that follow. And to stay full of energy through the night, one must eat well!
That’s why today we’ve put together a full meal you can enjoy together with loved ones. We also wanted to bring in recipes from different countries, because the feeling of unity is something we need now more than ever. All of the recipes are very simple, and perfect even for beginner cooks, but still full of surprising flavour and texture combinations.
- Fondue
How do you bring people together around one table? Just put a pot of fondue in the centre and hand out something to dip into it! The recipe is super-easy and nothing to be afraid of, you don’t even need any special equipment. But the pleasure of dipping into and sharing warm, fragrant melted cheese? That’s something you’ll get plenty of.

Risotto is a wonderfully comforting dish. It can be simple and homely or refined and full of additions. Don’t hesitate to experiment! We’re sharing the most classic recipe, but try adding some seasonal vegetables to make it your own.

Let’s add a bit of freshness to our cheesy madness! And a bit more cheese, of course — this time, sheep’s cheese! In fact, we borrowed this recipe from a small family-run restaurant in a tiny Italian village (the locals call it a town, because they even have a piazza!, but there are only 32 residents). It was so unexpected and so delicious that we couldn’t resist.

And what’s a meal without dessert? Well, absolutely incomplete!
A crepe cake is always a good idea. Just crepes, no fussing with sponges or heavy baking. And honestly, you can choose any filling you like, sweet or savoury. So go ahead and serve it as a dessert or a main dish, for example, with a green salad.
