Guest Blogger: The Kosher Guy
Some of you who read the comments know that Red Momo is becoming kosher. He will occasionally guest blog about his efforts and beg for delicious kosher recipes. Here's his first entry, and for those unfamiliar with Jewish lingo, tref (also treyf, trayf, terefah) means unclean and unfit for consumption according to dietary law; not kosher.
Becoming KosherI just moved to Boston, and the rental market here is insane. However, through a friend I've found a roommate. I don't yet know his gourmand name, but I guarantee it's kosher. Well, at least not tref (or treyf). Anyway, for the approximately $800 I'm saving EACH MONTH to live in this palatial apartment, I have to learn to be kosher. Not a problem.
Well, wouldn't be a problem if I had any experience with it. I have never followed kosher as I'm Greek Orthodox -- we don't have rules like this. Like most religions, we have our quirks, but only our slightly lost Catholics brethren keep fasts and such like we (and the old religions) do.
I will gladly take any help, suggestions, and comments. Plus any recipe suggestions. And delicious things you see here? There might just be a kosher version... wait and see...
