Mother's Day Shavuot Baking with Hadar Kedem!
Thank you for joining us for Mother's Day Shavuot Baking with Hadar Kedem!! We are so grateful that Hadar agreed to offer this second class and showed us how to make her delicious Lemon Cheesecake.
For Hadar's simple strawberry sauce that she taught during class, you can find the recipe and directions down below. **Please Note: Regarding amendments to the recipe, Hadar uses any kind of yogurt she has on hand and a make shift steam baker which she taught, instead of a steam wall oven.

Strawberry Sauce
1/2 cup - 1 cup of strawberries, fresh or frozen (depending on how much sauce you want to have)
If you are using fresh strawberries, add a little bit of water (1 teaspoon) to the pan
1 tablespoon lemon juice
1/2 tablespoon of lemon zest or more if you like it
A splash of maple syrup (add more at the end if you want)
Add the strawberries to a sauce pan or pot. If you’re using fresh strawberries, add in a little bit of water. Turn on the burner to medium low and let it begin to simmer. Add in the lemon juice, the lemon zest and the maple syrup. Cook the strawberries and other ingredients down until they break down and the sauce is simmering. Once you’ve gotten the fruit to the consistency you want it, you can turn off the stove and let the sauce cool. It will thicken as it cools. Pour on top of the cheesecake after the sauce has cooled and the cheesecake has cooled and sat in the fridge for several hours or overnight.
If you or an organization you are a part of would like to bring her on to lead a virtual/future in-person workshop, please let her know by emailing Shoshana at shoshana@shoshanagugenheim.com.
We also wanted to say thank you to our co-sponsors for this event, the Greensboro Contemporary Jewish Museum and Elsewhere Museum, and The Gugenheim Portland.

About Hadar:
Hadar Kedem loves to bake, bake, bake. She got her start in Israel (her motherland) making pita on an open fire in the desert and has moved on to home ovens where she makes bottom scraping tarts, log cakes, key lime pies, cheesecakes (vegan ones too), lemon macarons and a whole lot more. Hadar had her first baking residency at age seven with the Greensboro Contemporary Jewish Museum and Elsewhere Museum in Greensboro, NC. Today she is nine and delights family and friends with her creations made with her very own bright red stand mixer. (Thanks to the grandparents who made that wish come true!)
