Temple 'Crew' Readies 4H-ers Falafel
Temple Beth-El fundraising project will feature a family's secret recipe and other treats at the upcoming 4H Fair.
Written by Pam Lavroff
A group of volunteers from Temple Beth-El in Hillsborough met to prepare falafel for the Somerset County 4H Fair.
The secret recipe for the falafel was shared by Sabi Bivas, whose family originated the recipe and evolved it over the years. The basic ingredients include chickpeas, bread crumbs, onions—and a special blend of spices.

The falafel is fried and served on pita bread with hummus and Israeli salad.
The Somerset County 4H Fair will be held from 10 a.m. to 10 p.m. Aug. 7 – 9 at North Branch Park in Bridgewater. Temple Beth-El has sold falafel at the fair for the last six years—the temple expects to sell over 900 sandwiches this year.
