Check Out These Next-Level Torah Scroll Deli Rolls

Image by Chani H Hirschel‎ via Facebook

The end of Sukkot / Jewish holidaypalooza season is nigh and the holiday of Simchat Torah, a celebration of completing the annual Torah cycle, is almost upon us.

Traditionally, Jews celebrate by dancing with Torah scrolls in the synagogue — but some adventurous chefs are dancing with their Torahs and eating them, too.

“Love experimenting with Deli Roll,” wrote Chani H Hirschel on Facebook. “I used 2 Deli Rolls as Torah Scrolls (ha that rhymes), wrapped them in another layer of puff pastry, decorated the cover, wrapped and inserted hot dogs on a skewer, and voila! we have a Torah Scroll Deli Roll. ????? We are rounding third! Chag Sameach…again!”

Others, including Sima Neiman, shared their Torah-rolls as well:

Here is why I'm matching up to $36,000 in gifts to the Forward:

Hello, fellow Forward reader! I’m Joel Brown, a Forward reader and supporter for more than 15 years, and currently the chair of the board of directors.

I’m an avid Forward reader because it ticks so many of my essential boxes: excellent journalism, Jewish focus and diverse viewpoints. In today’s political climate, what I most appreciate is the Forward’s independence — made possible by the generosity of its membership.

The Forward is committed to bringing you unbiased, nuanced Jewish news. From my position as board chair, I see an exciting future as we expand our position as the definitive independent voice of contemporary American Judaism.

That’s why I’m paying it Forward, by matching $36,000 of reader gifts. It’s an investment in the Forward’s newsroom, to continue telling the American Jewish story with truth and independence.

Support our mission to tell the Jewish story fully and fairly.
