Michael Crane’s homemade blintzes.

Community member Michael Crane will teach a class on how to make blintzes at Jewish-owned business Olive Tree (7044 W. 105th Street, Overland Park, KS 66212). 

The event will take place on Saturday, Feb. 22, from 1 to 3 p.m. Spaces are limited, and advanced registration and payment is required at tinyurl.com/3xnhsfc2 or by contacting Olive Tree at (913) 338-2700 or office@olivetreekc.com

In the interactive class, participants will learn how to make homemade dry cottage cheese; gain hands-on experience in creating blintzes with delicate crepes and filling; taste blintzes; and leave with six vacuum-sealed blintzes to take home. 

The class is designed for all experience levels.

Since retiring from Crane Brewing, Crane has been working in the field of traditional Jewish foods and often works with Olive Tree. Last July, Crane and Olive Tree worked together on a pastrami-and-rye pop-up event, and they collaborated on a Rosh Hashanah menu last September. 

Crane also made homemade blintzes sold by Congregation Beth Torah for Yom Kippur break-the-fast.
