Eating out the Jewish way has never been easier especially if one lives in a neighbourhood with a strong Jewish community. Kosher meals are to be had as a take out or just sitting down and enjoying favourite specialities in this type of cuisine. Over Passover, Jews the world over partake of meals such as chicken soup with kneidlach amongst many others.
Passover falls in the month of Nisan in the Jewish Calendar. Just by searching the World Wide Web, one can get an idea of what is eaten during this time. These custom foods go back centuries and have recipes have been passed down from mother to daughter and so on. Passover is celebrated to commemorate the Exodus from Egypt many years ago and falls in the month of Spring in the northern hemisphere and autumn in the southern hemisphere.
It celebrates the event of the Israelites coming out of slavery from Egypt. This is alluded to in a book called the Haggadah which is read at the Seder table on two consecutive nights outside of Israel and one night should one live in Israel. The word seder can be translated to read Order, where a special organised set of prayers are read at the table by families all over the world.
This is the time when the Israelites came out of slavery having served the Egyptians for almost four hundred years. They were lead out by Moses and shown a new set of laws that is believed was handed down from G-d to Moses on Mount Sinai. Food is always king and at this time there is no exception to the many dishes that are served at this time.
This commemorates the bread the Israelites ate during this time and it was also unleavened as they left in such a rush that the dough did not have time to rise into bread. It is like a cracker but has its distinctive taste. This must be kosher too and prepared by Jews alone in order for it to pass stringent laws surrounding its making.
Other foods that are eaten during this time and especially at the Seder meal, are among many, Haroseth. This is a mixture of crushed almonds, apple and wine that is mixed into a thickish consistency. It symbolizes the mortar and bricks that were worked with by the Israelites during this period of captivity.
Other foods that are eaten are gefilte fish with chrain. Gefilte fish is a fish ball essentially and is eaten with horseradish. The horseradish is bitter to commemorate the bitter lives that were lived during this time and to remind the Jewish people of today the hard times that Jews have had to live through throughout the millennia.
It is a time of celebration. Eat well, live well. This is a time to be as kosher as can be.
