Have you ever wanted to make your own shatta — that vibrant, spicy Palestinian fermented chili full of depth and flavour? Together with Fil (Get Your Fil), we invite you to join us for an afternoon of chili, culture, and delicious food. You’ll learn the story and tradition behind shatta, make your own batch to take home, and enjoy a taste of Palestine along the way.
Layth (from Fil) will introduce you to all his Shatta secrets, while also taking you through the story of Shatta, a chili paste deeply connected to his Palestinian roots.
Growing up, Shatta was always on the table, but after moving here, he couldn’t find one that captured the same flavour and soul. So, he started making his own! And now, he’s sharing that tradition with you.
