The Women of the Zeitoun Kitchen

Appears in
The Gaza Kitchen: A Palestinian Culinary Journey

By Laila El-Haddad and Maggie Schmitt

  • About

Many urban families in Gaza rely on professionals to prepare food for them, particularly for parties or special events. Some do this to save time, others to save on cooking fuel. This is where Um Hamada and the women of Jamiyit Juthour al-Zeitoun, the Olive Roots Cooperative, step in.

Tired of the helplessness many Gazan homemakers feel in an economic situation of nearly universal male under- and unemployment, Um Hamada and her neighbors in Gaza City’s historic Zeitoun neighborhood decided to put their cooking skills to work in the organization’s kitchen cooperative to support their families.
