Passover isn't just another date on the calendar. It's a ritual that carries memory forward - a night where symbols turn into stories and the journey from slavery to freedom is retold so each generation can feel it anew.
On this week's Culinary Confidential, we gather at the Seder table with voices bridging past and present. Spencer, a Hebrew school student, brings the clarity and curiosity of the next generation. Jay Buchsbaum, a leading educator in the Kosher wine world, traces how tradition and craftsmanship shape the bottles poured at holiday tables. Chef Naomi Nachman, cookbook author and culinary force, brings the creativity and precision that define her Passover kitchen.
Together, they explore why matzo matters, how bitter herbs teach resilience, and why asking questions is the heartbeat of the holiday. It's a conversation on liberation, legacy, and the way food, wine, and storytelling turn a meal into a vessel for identity. Because while stories are told, some are inherited.
