This event takes place at CSI Spadina, 192 Spadina Ave., Suite 501
Emily Zimmerman is an OG Depaneer, with a long tenure as the Depanneur’s resident plant-based balabusta (home cook and homemaker supreme). Emily has been veganizing classic New York-style Ashkenazi dishes for years. Now she brings you the mighty knish — delicious, flaky pastries with hearty, savoury fillings. We’ll be making a pair of classic knishes – one with potato and caramelized onion filling, one with sautéed mushrooms and buckwheat.
We’ll enjoy them with some fool-your-Bubbe tofu-based “egg” salad, and some quick-pickled cucumber and onion. Participants will also take home a recipe zine with instructions for all of the above, plus ideas for more knish fillings, both old- and new-school.

She can be found at food events around the city and at The Depanneur hosting the occasional vegan Supper Club or Workshop.
