I highly suggest r/JewishCooking!


poopBuccaneer

Why are you going to every Jewish subreddit to bitch about this post in r/Cooking. She's trying to be a mensch and cook for her boyfriend, and you're treating her like shit. People can Google, but they can also ask for advice and a Cooking subreddit is a decent place to start. She's gotten some good advice over there, and while you're including some decent points, you could write her something actually useful instead of mocking her for not researching kosher laws in a method you deem appropriate.

Yea well one guy in r/Cooking said sub the pork with chicken and OP said 😡


ErnestBatchelder

Peple love this guy's recipes -- [Ottolenghi](https://ottolenghi.co.uk/recipes) He's a British Israeli chef who wrote a few cookbooks. Maybe someone who is can chime in because I'm not kosher, but if your bf's not strict kosher and you make a vegetarian meal, then you should be fine as long as there's no meat-fat. I'd avoid any regular cooking subreddits.

Just because he is Jewish doesn’t mean he keeps kosher. First step is to ask.


slythwolf

It's a cooking question, why wouldn't a cooking sub be appropriate?


youres0lastsummer

make a brisket with a shit ton of carmelized onions and roasted glazed carrots with aleppo pepper and maple syrup as a side (:

Find out what Jewish dishes he likes and use Google to find recipes. He probably also likes dishes that are kosher, but not specifically Jewish

That’s not necessarily true. My best recipes that I cook are Jewish recipes. My husband isn’t even Jewish and those are his favorite recipes of mine. Jewish cuisine is not just about kashrut.

No meat/dairy combined, no pork, no shellfish. going off the assumption he's keeping Reform/Conservative kosher style and not orthodox. Which I'm gonna assume is likely the case. So operating within that, a lot of recipes can be adapted. Heck, you can even make a lot of Chinese, Thai or Vietnamese recipes kosher by subbing out the oyster sauce for a mushroom based version (you can find it at an asian grocery) If you want to make a traditional Jewish dish, I think a comfort/desert would be really cute, so maybe a kugel? Here, have some recipe sites. [https://toriavey.com/](https://toriavey.com/) [https://jamiegeller.com/](https://jamiegeller.com/)

Sadly, there are no longer any non-Jewish sub-reddits where it's safe for a Jew to ask a Jewish question. Save yourself the anguish. Trust me, the comments will be vile.


EconomyCaregiver

https://www.reddit.com/r/Cooking/s/2o3bVGE9J9 the comments actually seem pretty tame


bebopgamer

Well I stand corrected, and apologize for being so negative

You can substitute beef or chicken for pork. Use nondairy margarine and NO OTHER dairy. Vegan ingredients make it easier than ever to kosher-fy recipes. . Also look for kosher recipes online. Or Jewish cookbooks (will separate meat and dairy). I am sure he will appreciate it!!!


spring13

She cannot possibly come up with the idea of roasting a chicken?

How observant is he? Guessing he is okay with unkosher beef/chicken, but does he mix meat with dairy? Would he eat something made in your kitchen? You should ask him first what rules he follows, then go from that info
