Most non Jewish people don't understand Jewish food. What they truly don't know is that the kind of food that is consumed by Jews has to be well prepared according to the laws and customs that are mentioned in the Torah . We're now going to check out a few points that differentiate Jewish catering from typical catering for non-believers .
Kind of Meat Offered
Jewish catering just uses kosher meat. Kosher meat is meat which is derived from mammals and birds that have been slaughtered based on Jewish nutritional laws documented in Deut 12:21; 14:21 and Num 11:22. The meat is slaughtered using blade a very sharp that properly severs the trachea, carotid arteries, esophagus, jugular veins and the vagus nerve. Pushing and piercing are not suitable when slaughtering animals. Based on Jewish laws an animal that is slaughtered in this manner feels no pain. Before you go for slaughter an animal is examined to check if it is healthy. Right after slaughter the carcass is examined to verify if the inner organs are blemish free and there are no indications of internal bleeding which might provide the meat non kosher.
Passover Food
Jewish catering gives special food during the Passover. Passover is a special Jewish holiday which is used to memorialize the time when Israelites were freed from the bonds of Egyptian slavery. Based on history, it is stated that when the Israelites left Egypt they left in a rush such that they had no time to wait for their bread to rise so they consumed unleavened bread. Hence today the event is commemorated through eating unleavened bread. These days the special event is preceded by a procedure for removing traces of leaven from the kitchen or perhaps any other locations meant for cooking.
Traditional Meals
Jewish catering usually provides the following traditional foods throughout the Passover.
*Charoset - brownish like paste created from ground apples and nuts seasoned with wine.
*Gefilte fish - meat balls created from deboned fish (carp or pike)
*Matzah balls in chicken soup - dumplings made from matzo meal boiled in chicken soup.
*Matzahbrei - this is food made from matzah which is dipped in egg and fried.
*Matzo cereal - a cereal made from matzo meal often served with milk.
*Rice - even though some Jews avoid it during the Passover as it can be contaminated with wheat grains.
