July 20th at 4pm

Pickling Vegetables: Half Sours, Dills & More.

Pickles are iconic in the delicatessen. At DGS, we pickle cucumbers, radish, fennel, mushrooms, eggs and more. In the first class, Chef Koslow will teach you pickling 101 and demonstrate how to transform any vegetable into a delicious pickle. Learn tricks for how to make great half sours and dills at home.

July 27th at 4pm

Fish: Cured, Smoked & Pickled

The delicatessen traces its roots to Eastern Europe, where our great grandparents cured, smoked and pickled fish. We’ve relearned this important food tradition at DGS. In the second class of the series, Chef Koslow will teach you how to cure salmon, smoke whitefish, and pickle bluefish.

August 3rd at 4pm

Slivovitz, Shrubs & Moving Beyond Manischevitz

Last but not least. Drinking. Our drinking culture was born in Eastern Europe, but was shaped in Lower East Side bars, summer retreats in the Catskill Mountains, and winter getaways to Florida. Learn from Beverage Director Brian Zipin how to make slivovitz at home, turn fruit into shrubs for your cocktails, and pair Jewish food with wine.

For many remote workers, a messy home is distracting.

You’re getting pulled into meetings, and your unread emails keep ticking up. But you can’t focus because pet hair tumbleweeds keep floating across the floor, your desk has a fine layer of dust and you keep your video off in meetings so no one sees the chaos behind you.

It’s no secret a dirty home is distracting and even adds stress to your life. And who has the energy to clean after work? That’s why it’s smart to enlist the help of professionals, like Well-Paid Maids.
