 r the art of crafting traditional Palestinian Knafeh in this immersive wor
 kshop.\n\n\n\n\n\n\nJoin us for a hands-on knafeh workshop celebrating one
  of Palestine’s most iconic desserts.\n\nTogether we’ll make knafeh\,

 estinian culture and tradition.\n\nYour ticket includes one drink from Ya
 fa Grille.\n\nWhat you'll learn in this dessert class:\n\nDiscover the ric
 h flavors and techniques of crafting traditional Palestinian knafeh in thi
 s experience.\n\nJoin Sitti on a nostalgic culinary journey to master the 
 art of making Knafeh\, inspired by her childhood visits to the famed Habib
 a shop in Amman\, Jordan\, where each bite transported her to their ancest
 ral home of Nablus. In this class\, we’ll explore the traditional techni
 ques and authentic ingredients that make Nabulsi Knafeh so special\, passe
 d down through generations and cherished as a symbol of Palestinian herita
 ge.\n\nIn this hands-on workshop\, you'll learn to create the beloved Pale
 stinian dessert\, Knafeh\, using traditional techniques and authentic ingr
 edients. We’ll begin by preparing the kataifi dough\, shredding it by ha
 nd into short strands and mixing it with ghee\, butter\, and optional oran
 ge food coloring to achieve the perfect texture and color. You’ll then p
 ress the dough into a pan\, ensuring it forms a firm base\, before layerin
 g it with a blend of akawi and mozzarella cheeses. After topping with the 
 remaining dough\, we’ll cook the Knafeh on the stove\, continuously rota
 ting the pan for even heat distribution until the cheese melts and bubbles
 . Finally\, you’ll drizzle the Knafeh with fragrant orange blossom-infus
 ed syrup and garnish it with crushed pistachios\, creating a dessert that 
 is as beautiful as it is delicious.\n\n\n
