People might be familiar with the term kosher. While some may know and master it, others do not and cannot simply because they are not a part of it. This word signifies a tradition that must be practiced among Jews. They are very concerned with the food they are eating that is why they come up with the kosher meals as part of their culture.
First is its meat and derivatives. It must comply with specific rules. According to the law, the types that can only be eaten are those of cattle or any animals that have hooves and chew the cud. These rules must all be followed. If an animal only has hooves but does not chew the cud then it is not acceptable.
Examples of these animals are the bulls, cows, goats and others. According to the law, for the animals to be eaten, they must be slaughtered by a ritual slaughterer. The Jewish law prohibits causing any pain to an animal so they do the killing instantaneously. Death must occur instantaneously.
The Jews are also practicing the tradition of removing the blood and removing the veins and the skin. After the animal is killed, they removed the fats and the veins which are considered forbidden. After, the meat is soaked in a bath with a room temperature for half an hour. To get rid of the blood, it is then placed on salting tables where it is salted for an hour.
The Jews are concerned about the poultry and other derivatives too. They will not consume any birds for good. They also created a list of those that can be eaten and those that should be avoided. The eagle, owl, swan and pelican are marked check. Those that must not be consumed are ducks, geese, chicken and turkey. These lists are not complete however.
Next in line are the dairy products and other derivatives. Milk products come from kosher animals. The milk of impure cattle is prohibited however. Any dairy products may not have kosher ingredients. According their law, an additive cannot be declared during packaging but still it is taken as non kosher meal. One must be aware therefore of what he is eating to avoid any disobedience of the law.
Any milk product and any meat must not be cooked or mixed together. This practice is extremely wrong for them. Based on the rule, these two should not be taken together. This is greatly practiced among Jews. They also carefully separate those utensils for cooking the meat and those used for cooking any milk products. The utensils are carefully separated from one another.
With strict observance comes the daily habit of these laws. After eating a particular meat, one must wait for at least an hour before he or she can eat dairy. After consuming a dairy product, there is not interval needed before a meat is eaten. In terms of fish, only those that have fins and scales may be eaten.
All products that grow on plants or in the soil and bushes or trees are considered as part of kosher meals. However, all animals including insects that have many legs or too short legs are not part of the tradition. Fruits and vegetables that are infested with the forbidden insects must be checked properly. They must be removed away from the food.
