Took me a moment...

Actually, I would love your Bran muffin recipe (without the prunes). My wife used to make them all the time before we really started keeping kosher, and now she can't find substitutes for what she was using.

What was she using that isn't kosher?

I love bran muffins... but you know that's not what i meant goober.

Bran Flakes from Kellogs. You know the one with the "K" that they think makes it kosher?

Seriously, look at my reply to Chazak. For Kellogg's cereals, the "K" is fine!

Really Chazak? Good news! If you guys accept star K certification then she can keep using it! The plain "K" is reliable for Kellogg's only on their cereals. It is under the Vaad of Boston, and is accepted by Star K. Of course check with your rav, everyone here eats Kellogg's and they are sold in the kosher market with just the "K".

BTW, can someone post a listing of hechsters that are reliable?

Yochanan

 

[Talmidah]

I have a bunch of little cards that have a listing on them. They are from this website.But you can find pretty much everything in stores now with either OU, Star K, or Chaf K.

 

[Torah613]

Thanks! Its hard round these parts as the only one I know I can trust is OU and there's not that much of it around (at least the stuff thats certified taht also fits my vegan diet). I usually give myself neck cramps from checking fresh vegetables and fruits.

When eating fresh vegetables and fruits, observant Jews will check extensivly for bugs as these would render them non-kosher. thus making a fresh salad can take alot of time. However, there are some companies that will put out bags of produce that have been certified Kosher. I have only read about these as their not available in the local area.

A light box, is an object similar to what is used to check X-rays. To use it you turn it on, and then place a leaf of lettuce or whathave you on top and can check in a period of a few seconds for bugs.

I having limited electrical outlets in my tiny kicthen hold the piece of produce up to the light and inspect it for bugs. This is timeconsuming, not to mention bad on the neck.

Yeah....what he said.

And I can empathize with you about the lack of outlets. We are always having to plug/unplug stuff when we want to use them. We have two electrical outlets and almost no counter space.
