(New) Jewish Cooking Classes?

Jamie Oliver’s TED Prize Wish – Teach Every Child About Food from David Bryfman on Vimeo.

David Bryfman, currently the Director of the New Center for Collaborative Leadership at the  Board of Jewish Education of Greater New York-SAJES, got inspired by Jamie Oliver’s passion for healthy eating.  He’s thinking about how to bring Jaime’s suggestions for education into the Jewish community:

His presentation on healthy eating is something that every educator, parent, grandparent and anyone else who feeds our children, should watch (and it wouldn’t hurt the younger generation to watch it either). It got me thinking about the obligatory Jewish cooking classes that many Jewish supplementary high school programs offer – and why not? They’re popular, relatively simple to plan, and you slip in the Jewish content piece without the kids even realize that they’re learning.
