On this episode! Micah talks with Ladino singer-songwriter Sarah Aroeste and chef Susan Barocas about their new educational Sephardic food project called Savor (pronounced sa-VOR — *not* like savor, the english word meaning to enjoy something). Savor, in Ladino, means “flavor” or “taste.”

Savor is a combined language and food initiative that combines Ladino songs about food recorded by Sarah with a culinary experience by Susan about the food that Sarah sings about. The trio chat about how Savor evolved out of pandemic-era emotional support cooking, the ways Sephardic food is often overlooked, and how Savor aims to bridge that gap with Jewish communities around the world.
