Going through old posts, and I found this one from a couple of years ago. Timely! Rachel Adler begins her d’var Torah on this week’s parasha with this: Just now, American society is reexamining the way it eats. Michael Pollan, in his best-selling book In Defense of Food: An Eater’s Manefesto , advis ...

In short: Just pick one. Your options: A full 6 hours 5 hours and one minute 3 hours 1 hour (Almost no one does this, and you better be able to say you're Dutch or in a Dutch community.

There is a lot that can be said on this topic, but we're going to touch on the major causes superficially. This is basically a warning to make sure you realize what you're getting into. After the steep cost of the initial set-up, living Jewishly doesn't seem that much more expensive to the average s ...

On H-Judaic there is a discussion about Kosher and Halal meat. The following comment by Yona Sabar was interesting. The word kasher/kosher is not “universal”.

This kosher chicken recipe was originated by my summertime neighbor Amy H. Once you make this weeknight chicken recipe it will quickly become a family favorite.

Veggies and spices and kitchen messes oh my! Taylor is quite the health-nut veggie like me, so it makes meal-planning an ...

(Yes, that is a Pocahontas reference.) One of the most, dare I say it, "childish" things in orthodoxy is the obsessive/OCD color-coding of kitchen items. Don't get me wrong.
