  • WHAT in the WORLD IS WHEY? Rabbi Avrohom Gordimer, RC, Dairy Whey and Its Kashrus Explained
    CONSUMER Daf HaKashrusEDITION A PUBLICATION OF OU KOSHER WWW.OUKOSHER.ORG ISSUE 10 | SHAVUOT 5776 WHAT IN THE WORLD IS WHEY? Rabbi Avrohom Gordimer, RC, Dairy Whey and Its Kashrus Explained Most people aren’t quite sure what whey is. We know that whey is used in some baked products, that it is a principal ingredient in many nutritional products, and that it has something to do with curds (whatever that means!). L’maaseh, what is whey, and are there any kashrus concerns? The short answer is that whey is the protein-rich component of milk that remains behind when milk is made into cheese. There are plenty of kashrus concerns, and much hashgacha work is needed to obtain kosher whey. And here is the long answer: When milk is made into cheese, the “bulkiest” components of the milk (its casein protein and dairy fat) form into cheese curds, which are gelatinous protein matrices with fat entrapped therein. The cheese curd is dried somewhat, molded into blocks and made to look “nice”; the finished product is what we call cheese. The remaining liquid component of the milk that did not form into cheese curd is called whey. Whey, which is an opaque yellowish fluid (the natural color of milk once it is stripped of its casein protein and dairy fat), contains miniscule proteins called whey protein, some residual dairy fat, as well as lactose (dairy sugar) and minerals. Many companies remove the whey protein component and concentrate it, producing a protein-charged material called – you guessed it – whey protein concentrate, or WPC.

  • Chassidus on the Chassidus on the Parsha +
    LIGHTS OF OUR RIGHTEOUS TZADDIKIM בעזרת ה ' יתבר A Tzaddik, or righteous person , makes everyone else appear righteous before Hashem by advocating for them and finding their merits. Kedushas Levi, Parshas Noach (Bereishis 7:1) RE’EH _ CHASSIDUS ON THE PARSHA + The Merit of Charity Unfortunately, there were all too many poor people who circulated among the towns and villages begging for assistance in fending off starvation. The locals gave a few coins to each of them; they could not give larger amounts to every person who came with outstretched hands. But if the poor person could secure an enthusiastic personal letter from a great Rav , there was a good chance that he would be given somewhat larger donations. There was a poor man who h ad the good fortune of securing such a letter. He had to marry off his daughter, and he was penniless. At the advice of a friend, he poured out his tale of woe to a certain great Rav , and the Rav offered to write him a letter. He had not dared ask for such a great privilege, even though the Rav had known him for years. But fortune smiled on him, and the Rav offered on his own. With hope in his heart and a bounce in his step, the poor man put the letter into his satchel and set off to raise the money he need ed. Even with the letter, it was a struggle. The poor man did manage to get a little more than he would have without the letter, but the amounts were not great.

  • Torah Musings Digests
    Torah Musings Digests July through October, 2014 as published on www.TorahMusings.com Unedited Introduction Started as the Hirhurim blog in 2004, Torah Musings relaunched in August 2013 as an online periodical focusing on multiple areas of interest, including: Textual Studies – halakhah (Jewish law),hashkafah (Jewish thought), history and parshanut (biblical commentary) that is clear, interesting, valuable to experienced students but understandable to those with limited Jewish education; News Stories and Commentary – thoughtful responses based on Jewish texts and traditions to issues of the day; Dialogue – differing views within the Orthodox camp, discussing with post and counter-post or in the responses. In July 2014, the website began sending weekly digests in PDF format. This booklet contains a collection of these weekly digests from July through October 2014, unrevised and in the same format originally sent. Currently, these PDF files flow automatically and sometimes misinterpret formatting commands. Therefore, there are occasional stray sentences that should be ignored. Please note that authorship of each essay is clear on the website but not always in the weekly digest. Unless otherwise indicated, assume that I wrote an essay. Many people contributed to this project. The editorial committee for the first year consisted of R. Micha Berger, R. Basil Herring and R. Moshe Schapiro, the last two continuing into the second year. These three scholars devoted many hours to improving and maintaining the website’s standards. I thank them for their hard work. During the period of this collection, Efraim Vaynman and David Roth served as editorial interns. I thank them both for their hard work.

  • T He Orthodox Jewish Archives, Which Was Struck by a Damaging Fire Last
    Jewish history may be lying around in your basement. Don't let it be lost to the world. he Orthodox Jewish Archives, which was struck by a damaging fire last year, has completed renovation of its physical facilities, and has embarked on a worldwide search Tto rebuild and expand its holdings. The destruction of archival material in the blaze was, fortunately, not as extensive as originally thought.

It is time for a greater undertaking. Thousands of documents and photos are languishing in trunks, attics and forgotten drawers in private homes and basements. Now is the time to retrieve this precious material­ before it becomes dust instead of history. Your help-the public's help-is needed in this effort. Do you have any relevant old photos, documents, or records? THE CATEGORIES OF ITEMS REQUESTED: • Documentation of Orthodox ,Jewish rescue \Vork dur­ • Documents and photos pertaining to Orthodox act.iv~ ing the Holocaust. ism in the social servicP and civic action fields. • Photos depicting life in the shtetl, the Orthodox com· • Photos of Gedolei Yisroel past and present munities of the cities, the yeshiva ·world, and Chassidk • Sets of Orthodox journals and periodicals.
