I am – Jewish Fact of the day: Kosher pt. 8

The Jewish fact of the Day:
Keeping a kosher kitchen
“Based on the verse “You must not cook a young goat in its mother’s milk” (Exodus 23:19 et al), Jews who keep kosher kitchens do not eat meat and dairy foods together. Separate sets of crockery, cutlery and cooking utensils are used, and in an orthodox home these will be cleaned in separate sinks and kept in separate cupboards. Often to help they will be different colours. After eating meat strict Jews will wait several hours before eating dairy products.”
