Green's Vegitarian in San Antonio... okay for a business group?
My husband will be in downtown San Antonio next week for business, and we keep kosher, so the only option for going out with his group (doctors and other medical professionals) will be Green's. Knowing that it is casual... how is it for a group of 8 people? How is the food?
Any feedback is appreciated.
Kosher Food at Atlanta Airport (TIMELY!)
Looks like my mom will have to hang out there for about 9 hours today. Any vending machines? Any insights?
Thanks
Prime Rib Roast for Shabbos?? Please Help!
My theory is better to eat a properly cooked roast luke-warm than ruined-one hot.
I've done london broil pretty well by keeping the oven at 170, and putting it in right before bench licht.
Anything *NEW* around Memorial Sloan? (NYC question).
Is there anything besides what I am seeing on koshertopia and Shamash. ?
So what are you making for Shavout?
If you are willing to "old school".... you CAN BBQ on Monday.
I'm guessing there are evening propane grills which you can ignite with a fireplace match.
Sangria made with Kesser...is it possible?
I'm making Shabbos Lunch, not a kegger. >:P
Sangria made with Kesser...is it possible?
Got Cholent -- pardon my naivite -- but what kind of spiced tea? Like Biglow Constant comment?
I was thinking of just throwing a ton of Oranges Lemons and Limes at the Bottle.
Sangria made with Kesser...is it possible?
I have 2 bottles of Kesser semi-sweet left over from the Sedars. They will very soon join the bottle of Rashi lite from the 2011 Sedars. I was thinking of making a sangria with the Kesser...has anyone done this?
Shatzer Matzah - Where to buy in Northern NJ?
Thanks everyone, I was able to order through B'nei Yeshurun in Teaneck.
Shatzer Matzah - Where to buy in Northern NJ?
Has anyone seen it in the stores? I already went to Teaneck Kosher and Glatt Express and neither is carrying.
kosher for passover protein powder ????
Ettilou ... if this is for a legitimate medical reason, then talk to your local orthodox Rabbi about what non- K for P products you can use.
If this is more of a want-to-have as opposed to a need to have, then you should look into consuming your protein in other ways for those 9 days.
Passover recipes
That is just way too general a question, but here's my 2 cents:
Chicken soup with chicken meatballs
Sweet and Sour meat balls
Brisket
Roasted root vegatables
Cakes
Eggplant Parm
Lasangna
Freezing Non-Grebrokhts Cakes?
I want to start making cakes now and freeze them, I plan to use the Spice and Spirit recipes,
Can I freeze them? How much damage will be done if they are frozen?
Kashering Kitchen? Help!
I am pretty sure, but you can VERY easily call the star-k 410-484-4110, and just ask your question to whomever answers.
Shmurah Matzo Recommendations -- It's that time of the year...
I always thought shatzer was a good bang for the buck since most the matzot were NOT broken
Kashering Kitchen? Help!
Exactly, It's pricey, they only seem to be sold in giant blocks, and it's made from cottonseed oil, you'll never use all of it.... and this is coming from a person who couldn't give a tinker's d*** about organic healthy things.
It just that the oils I mentioned above are healthier, and you get a better bang for your buck.
Kashering Kitchen? Help!
Call me crazy, but I love the Manischewitz coffee cake.
BY THE WAY DO NOT BUY MARGARINE DO NOT BUY MARGARINE DO NOT BUY MARGARINE (for Pesach)
You can use oil ( Extra Virgin Olive Oil or Safflower) as a 1:1 substitute, another poster, Queenscook, has made me a true believer of this.
You don't even need the special Pesach oil (icky) Hollywood brand safflower is KP year round, as is almost all EVOO)
Has anyone seen Bison in the last 3 months or so?
Are any of the on-line purveyors selling it?
Restaurants open on Pesach in NY/NJ area?
Historically, nothing has been open in Teaneck except the markets
No Dannon for Pesach???????
Rocky Cat: if it means anything, it gets a little more difficult every...single...year... to find the KLP marking on the Shoprite items.
Sometimes it's stamped with the freshness date, some times it been on the plastic coving, sometime it's a brand container. I would take time a week before the chag and really study the package, just in case you are missing something.
No Dannon for Pesach???????
Check store brands of Shoprite, Stop & Shop and Pathmark (if you are in the NY/NJ area).
Passover 2012- What's new?
Nj Kosh... anything worth buying not available in the US?
Kashering Kitchen? Help!
I ready to say shame on everyone for not recommending 888-go-kosher. It is run by a Lubavich (not necessairly "Chabad") Rabbi - Rabbi Lubavich and he does EXACTLY what you need, and will give you the guidance you need to get through the holidaym and he goes all over the US
Now...he does ask for donations, of about $360, but will not charge if needed.
As per all the above the advice, do not bother with the mikvah.
Are you guys near a major Jewish community? If you are, please spend the money (if you can) and
A) ORDER OUT EVERYTHING and then simply reheat in the oven
B) GET DISPOSABLE EVERYTHING.. I mean everything Serving utensils, paper goods, sedar plates, kiddush cups.
C) The guidance you really need to get through the whole chag is way too long to post here. Go troll the internet, honestly, Aish and Chabad have pretty reasonable guidelines on what to clean, how to clean it, what can and cannot be kashered. and what needs covering up (like coutertops - depending on their material).
Finally, and this may seem the most heretical advice:
Don't make a big dinner. My Rabbi in Pittsburgh always maintained that the Sedar meal should be, in total, Chicken soup, a peice of kugel, a bowl of salad and some fruit.
Save the big fancy meals for lunch.
Purim Basket Items
Must have for this year (although it's pricey)
Bertie Botts Every Flavor Beans, made by Jelly Belly.
Cast Iron Pans
This really sounds like question for your local orthodox Rabbi, in lieu of that you should call the Star-K, whoever answers, tell them you have a kasrus question and it will probably get answered right away.
Kosher (?) Pizza in Charlestown, WV
The Rabbi wrote back and says he knows the pizza owner in question...and will be in touch with him soon.
I think the greater error here lies with the newspaper.
Kosher (?) Pizza in Charlestown, WV
I couldn't take it anymore, I emailed the shul in Charleston asking if there is any planned response to the article.
No reply yet.
