Why do Jews need Food Processor Instructions?
 

or do Jews think the goyim don't know how to use them?

(commence the hating now.....) ;)

Thought we might have Latkes tonight -being as it's Chanook-A and all- checked out a few recipes.... The first one involved grated and shredded ingredients as expected....but the next two involved chunks and wedges. Weird, I thought, ....then I saw the instructions involved how to use a food processor to further reduce the size of the ingredients. In great detail. I have never seen recipes involving food processor instructions before -not even in the book that came with my food processor. What is the reason for this malarkey?

Here are those two recipes, because I know it sounds like I'm making it up....:

And no, I will not post this in the food forum, BigWannabeMod :p:

btw, we're going to have them with bacon and sausage links. Is that wrong?

only if you drink milk with it

Only if you have them on the pass over.

I wouldn't drink milk for any price -even one offered by whippy-boy.....

The recipe contains egg. Eggs are not dairy (imo) but they are found in the dairy aisle -even in our local Jewish store- so do they count as dairy for kosher purposes?

"Blessed are You, Adonai our God, Sovereign of all, for giving us life, for sustaining us, and for enabling us to reach this season."

I see lots of them in the food blogs, when I'm printing recipes for my Aunt. Most seem to be foreign though. That's using them, not how to use them.

So they don't use the Jewcer instead?

Meat, milk, and in-between, oh vey!

Technically, and besides 'watched'. Kosher should be defined by technicality, eggs are considered parev, or neither milk or meat. However if they are stored on the same shelves as milk they sort of get polluted with milk vibes and shouldn't be eaten with meat. This rule is for the extra extra careful.

Polluted with milk vibes? :lol:

That's funny. I'm sorry, but that's just a great line, I'm not dissing the practice or anything. :)

Religions are just full of so many fun and wacky rules.

Heck, the super-kosher will have two refrigerators. One for meat, one for dairy.

A dish or pot used for meat, if it is ever exposed to dairy, must be destroyed.

Wacky religious, sure, but so long as they are only messing with their own kitchen, it doesn't bother me. Let em eat kosher, if they like.

two kitchens.

Wacky ? Now maybe, but good public health in the wandering past.

For me, wacky means doing something because you've always done it that way, but not understanding why you've always done it that way.
