Join Brooklyn-based author Rebecca Firkser as we celebrate her beautiful new cookbook Galette. A galette is a rustic, free-form tart—sweet or savory, endlessly adaptable with fruit, vegetables, meats, or cheeses. Rebecca’s book is a tribute to the versatility and charm of this beloved pastry. She’ll share the story behind her book and guide us through the simplicity and beauty of galettes.

Chef Maura will demonstrate the dough and show how to shape a galette, while the Sofra team prepares a buffet of recipes from the book. Guests will enjoy flavors such as roasted and raw fennel, lemony spinach and rice, cocoa and pecan, not-quite galette des rois, and a classic berry galette.

Each ticket includes a copy of Galette.
