We just celebrated the Jewish holiday, Shavout. As tradition goes it’s customary to eat dairy foods on Shavout. We eat dairy foods to symbolize the “land flowing with milk and honey”.
We eat borekas (recipe can be found here) and cheesecake. My friend once made this cheesecake that tasted amazing! It wasn’t too dense, or too sweet, it was just right.
