Besides potentially popping open a bottle of Champagne, Sussman intends to take a pared-down approach to Passover. Her husband’s 60th birthday is on the first night of the holiday, and the family gathering they had planned in Jerusalem has been curtailed by COVID-19. Because she’s always contributed to family feasts in the past, this will be her first time making a full Seder for two in Tel Aviv.
She might roast a chicken or brisket, which will yield plenty of leftovers. And though she’ll still make matzo ball soup, it will be a small pot. Instead of representing the global influence of Jewish cooking by preparing a variety of charosets (a ceremonial Passover food made of fruit and nuts), she’ll likely make just one: her mom’s recipe. Given the pandemic, the holiday has different significance this year, Sussman says. And while an elaborate feast would be out of place, stripped down does not preclude celebratory.
“There are always a lot of metaphors associated with Passover and freedom, as something that Jewish people use to think about different issues that are going on in the world. Whether it was the Soviet Jewry (movement) or LGBTQ rights, or a million different things,” says Sussman. “I think this year we’re all going to be thinking about very basic freedoms including health and health care. Those are basic rights and in a way, those are basic freedoms that a lot of people take for granted. The holiday is more meaningful than ever.”
