Keeping Kosher

Although Jewish law dictates how one can keep kosher, many of today's modern Jewish families and individuals interpret the kosher laws in unique ways depending on their lifestyle. Many families comply with the kosher laws while observing certain Jewish holidays, but do not abide by the rules throughout the year. Other families incorporate the lifestyle in all respects, passing on the traditions to their children and grandchildren. Both families and individuals can benefit from gathering new information regarding kosher preparation, recipes and customs. Several groups have taken action and organized events as part of a worldwide movement to promote the kosher lifestyle and traditions. One of these events is Kosherfest, the world's largest kosher-certified products trade show, injecting excitement and flavor into the kosher tradition.
