Melting Pot Cholent

To Ashkenazim this traditional Sabbath casserole, slow-cooked overnight typically includes sink-to-the-bottom-of-your-stomach ingredients like fatty brisket and white potatoes to ward off the cold in the shtetls of Eastern Europe. To Sephardim in the warmth of the Mediterranean, it is dfina or adafina, with ingredients based on the local lighter foods – sorrel, chickpeas, and lots of spices. Our delicious vegan version draws inspiration from both traditions.
