It may be cooked with meat utensils for a meat meal, or with dairy utensils for a dairy meal. It may be served and eaten side by side with dairy foods.
For a meat meal, fish must be served and eaten on a separate dish and with a separate utensil than a meat item. However, most Ashkenazi poskim agree with the Chasam Sofer YD , who writes that since Rambam, who was one of the greatest doctors, did not caution against mixing fish and cheese, and there is no mention of this in the Gemara, there is no need to be concerned. Cooking refers to baking, frying, roasting, preparing, and so forth.
The separation of meat and dairy foods in eating and cooking requires a complete separation of meat and dairy dishes, pots, silverware, utensils, dish sponges, dish towels, tablecloths, dishwashers, and small appliances in the kosher kitchen.
What is a hechsher? For many processed and packaged foods, the presence of a hechsher is required to assure the kosher consumer of compliance with kashruth. It is not sufficient to rely on reading the ingredients on a label or package without a hechsher since:. Which foods are kosher? Kosher foods that are permitted according to kashruth include:. Fowl A kosher fowl is one that is not listed among the twenty-four types of fowl forbidden in the Bible and that is traditionally accepted as kosher, including chickens and domestic ducks, geese, turkeys, and doves.

Does the same apply to eating fish together with dairy? Most Ashkenazi poskim, including Shach and Taz, did not accept the chumra of not mixing fish and cheese, though some such as the Pri Megadim YD write that one should be careful in this regard. The Pitchei Teshuva YD points out that Rabbeinu Bechaye in his commentary on Parshat Mishpatim Shemot also forbade eating fish with cheese because of a possible danger to health.
Fish is only considered kosher if it comes from an animal that has fins and scales, such as tuna, salmon, halibut, or mackerel.
This stipulation means that each egg must be inspected individually. Kosher guidelines limit the consumption of animal-based foods to specific animals and cuts of meat which are slaughtered and prepared in a particular manner. In their purest form, grains and grain-based foods are considered kosher. However, certain processing methods may ultimately deem them not kosher. It is common for some breads to contain oils or shortening. If an animal-based shortening is used, the bread may not be considered kosher.
Furthermore, if baking pans or other equipment are greased with animal-based fats or otherwise used to cook any meat- or dairy-containing dish, the end product is no longer kosher. Because these types of processing methods are not typically disclosed on a standard nutrition or ingredient label, bread and grain products must be certified kosher to ensure that the food complies with all relevant guidelines.
Similar to grains, fruits and vegetables are kosher in their unprocessed form. However, because insects are not kosher, fresh fruits and vegetables must be inspected for the presence of insects or larvae prior to sale or consumption. Furthermore, fruit and vegetable products that are produced using non-kosher equipment, such as anything that processes milk and meat, are not kosher. Generally speaking, nuts , seeds , and the oils derived from them are kosher.
Each of these steps must be closely monitored in order to ensure adherence to kosher guidelines 3. Like foods, wine must be produced using kosher equipment and ingredients to be deemed kosher. This includes any tools used to harvest and prepare the grapes for fermentation.
However, because wine is significant to many Jewish religious occasions, stricter rules are imposed. In fact, the entire kosher wine production process must be carried out and supervised by practicing Jews. Otherwise, the wine cannot be deemed kosher. The majority of plant-based foods are considered kosher. Though there is some variation in adherence to Passover dietary guidelines, all leavened grain products are traditionally forbidden.
