Bringing Israel Home Series Guide & How to Watch

Hosted By: Bringing Israel Home

Bringing Israel Home

Join award-winning chef Michael Solomonov for the premiere of his new digital series, “Bringing Israel Home.” Each Wednesday evening for 16 weeks, Chef Solomonov will bring Israel’s extraordinarily diverse and vibrant culinary landscape into people’s homes via weekly interviews with food and cultural figures in Israel, cooking both new and signature recipes live in his home kitchen, and through live conversation with viewers.

Watch the show each week to experience Israeli cuisine like you’ve never seen it before and cook a unique, new Israeli-inspired recipe along with this James Beard award-winning chef, right from your own kitchen.

Tune in every Wednesday night at 8:00 pm EST starting January 13th! Watch here.

You can find the recipes in advance of the show each week on The Nosher, and you can also view them on Jewish Food Society.
