Posted

If you are looking for new or time-tested traditional Thanksgiving recipes, you can  sample more than 25 innovative creations  from Temple Beth-El members in its “World Series of Thanksgiving Favorites” on Nov. 6  from 4 to 5:30 p.m. A  panel of judges will award the title of “Best Thanksgiving Recipe” and attendees will choose the winner of the “People’s Choice Award.”

Now in its sixth year, this annual fundraiser benefits The Rabbi Leslie Yale Gutterman Religious School Scholarship Fund. Previous cook-off events included the World Series of Brisket, Kugels, Desserts, Noshes and Jewish Family Favorites. Each event attracted 200 attendees, and they have raised a total of  more than $30,000 to assist member families with school tuition.

This year’s judges are Gail Solomon, whose family owned Lloyd’s Deli on Hope Street; Russell Morin, owner of Russell Morin Fine Catering; and Chef Neath Pal, who now teaches at Johnson and Wales University and who owned Neath’s, known for its French/Asian fusion cuisine.

Admission for the event is $10 for adults, $5 for children over 5 and free for children under 5, with a maximum of $30 per family.  Temple Beth-El is at 70 Orchard Ave., Providence.

Raffle tickets selling for $10 each or three for $25 offer the chance to win prizes, including gift certificates and gift baskets. For more information, contact Ruby Shalansky at 401-331-6070 or rshalansky@temple-beth-el.org or www.temple-beth-el.org.
