The DAT Minyan is proud to present you with the first sections of the Kashrut manual. We hope that this manual will serve as an educational instrument and as a convenient reference tool. The manual will be rolled out in sections, but once completed it will cover many topics, including but not limited to:
Acceptable Kashrut symbols
Tevilat keilim
Cooking by non-Jews
Cooking on Shabbat
What products do not require hashgacha
A list of local kosher establishments
Various other topics.
While we have tried to cover many issues that come up on a regular basis, we recognize that there are many issues not covered in this manual. Please feel free to call either of us if you have any questions or need any clarification.
A community is made up of many individuals, all with their own strengths and personal journeys. One of the roles played by community leadership is to enable community members, and support them on their spiritual journey. This manual is to be seen in this light; A guide that can help us all learn more about Kashrut and grow together as a community.
Sincerely,
Rabbis Daniel Alter and Joshua Hess
