Eating With Kosher Prepared Meals

By Anna Perry


Food food food is what it is all about and getting those delicacies served that are a delight among Jewish persons. Kosher prepared meals must meet the requirements of law and can be found online by simply searching the keywords. Ordering is easy enough but one often misses what actually goes into making meals such as these whilst adhering to strict cooking guidelines.

There are many guidelines that must be adhered to in order for the status of the food be accepted as fully kosher. There are many discourses explaining what is required in the actual foodstuffs used plus how they may be cooked and served. The laws are intense but they can be simplified and broken down into understandable chunks that are easily understood by the lay person.

Firstly, meat may not be eaten straight after consuming milk products and a time period of about one hour must pass before one can do this. The same goes for eating milk products after meat has been consumed but in this instance, a six hour period must be waited out before milk can be consumed after meat. This is not a hard and fast rule and Jews the world over have their own traditions and customs and will often not wait the full six hours.

Among other sects such as Sephardi Jews, the waiting period is three hours and sometimes even only up to one hour after eating meat products. These rules are adhered to very strictly among Jews and is something that is practiced every day. It is not uncommon when a Jew is asked whether or not they would like something to eat that has milk in it, only getting a reply that they are Fleishich, meaning that that meat has just been consumed.

There are rules and regulations that must be met when preparing food in this fashion. They are all encompassed by what is called the Laws of Kashrut and is something that governs the waking hours of all Jews. What one has to ensure is that the food being eaten has an endorsement from the local rabbinical court in ensuring that the food has been monitored from its raw state to its cooked one.

There are many reasons why someone will want to order foodstuffs such as this either online or off. The obvious reason is to satisfy Jewish visitors to a function whether it be a board meeting or a conference for that matter. Primarily, one will want to be assured that the food being ordered meets the needs of those who will be consuming the food.

This is why a hechsher is often asked for as to who the overseeing rabbinical court was in the process of preparing the food. This is basically and endorsement which renders the food kosher. This is the most important requirement that one will want to look into in ensuring that the food prepared has met all requirements of law.

It is great when a variety of foodstuffs is on the menu so that one can cater for different tastes whether it be meat fish or dairy. As long as it has an endorsement then that is all one really needs to worry about. Ordering is the easy part as this can be done with a few clicks online.
