Celebrate Multiculturalism Day, June 27 by joining creative baking instructor and Season 7 contestant of The Great Canadian Baking Show, Niv Menon-Saberi.
Participants will learn the art of making and baking a Persian and Indian festive treat, Nankhatai, with a demonstration and tasting of chai from both cultures.
Nankhatai are melt-in-your-mouth, crumbly shortbread cookies that have been a beloved teatime treat across India, Pakistan, and parts of the Middle East for generations. Their name comes from the Persian word “naan” (bread) and the Afghan word “khatai” (biscuit), hinting at their fascinating journey through trade and tradition.
Guests will take home their baked goods after class! All materials will be provided.
Space is limited and pre-registration is required.
