MANTI AN ARMENIAN DELICACY

On Saturday March 15, 2025, St. John Armenian Church again welcomed Justin Aprahamian, owner of Sanford Restaurant, as he conducted another wonderful cooking demonstration to a class of 35 guests. The entrée of the day’s session was Manti, an Armenian delicacy that is quite labor intensive but a favorite of all. Many remember their grandmothers preparing this dish decades ago. Justin demonstrated the preparation of the dough, the lamb filling, the broth, the yogurt, and the parsley garnish, and how to put it all together in an artistic presentation.
Feedback from the participants was overwhelmingly positive.

COOKING WITH JUSTIN

Justin Aprahamian, a winner of the James Beard Award and owner of the prestigious Sanford’s Restaurant in Milwaukee, treated some 40 members and friends of St. John Armenian Church of Milwaukee were to a culinary class. Justin demonstrated the preparation of Armenian Spiced Pumpkin Soup adorned with toasted pumpkin seeds and caramelized pumpkin. He fastidiously explained the importance of taking the time to layer the ingredients to create the rich flavors embodied in the soup.
