Find these classics at Skokie kosher restaurants and caterers.
Cheesecake
The quintessential Shavuot dessert. New York-style, Israeli-style, no-bake, and layered cheesecakes appear at every Shavuot table. Kosher bakeries stock dozens of varieties leading up to the holiday.
Blintzes
Thin crepes filled with sweetened cheese (often farmer cheese or ricotta), pan-fried until golden, and served with sour cream, berry compote, or powdered sugar. A beloved Ashkenazi Shavuot classic.
Dairy Meals
Shavuot is the holiday of dairy. Lasagna, quiches, cheese bourekas, pizza, mac and cheese, and creamy pasta dishes all make appearances at Shavuot meals alongside the traditional desserts.
Milk and Honey
The Torah describes the Land of Israel as 'a land flowing with milk and honey.' Dishes incorporating milk, cream, and honey are especially appropriate for Shavuot, connecting the holiday's themes of Torah and the Land.
