As with Sudoku, the objective of Killer Sudoku is to fill the grid with the numbers 1 to 9, such that each row, column and nonet (3x3 group of cells) contains each number only once. 2. In addition to this, a Killer Sudoku grid is divided into cages, shown with dashed lines. The sum of the numbers in a cage must equal the small number in its top-left corner. 3. The same number cannot appear in a cage more than once. GOOD LUCK and have a HAPPY PURIM!

Cookery is considered to be both an art and science. The art of cooking is ancient. The first cook was a primitive man, who had put a chunk of meat close to the fire, which he had lit to warm himself. He discovered that the meat heated in this way was not only tasty but it was also much easier to masticate. From this moment, in unrecorded past, cooking has evolved to reach the present level of sophistication. Humankind in the beginning ate to survive.

  • Excerpts Only* JEWISH CUISINE
    *Excerpts Only* JEWISH CUISINE Food Fare Culinary Collection, Volume #35 ©2013 Food Fare "Jewish Cuisine" was written for entertainment purposes and expresses the sole opinions of the author. This e- book is not meant to be a professional chef's essay about Jewish cuisine, but rather an observation about the generalities of Jewish food and recipes from an amateur home kitchen. Excerpts from JEWISH CUISINE Food Fare JEWISH DIETARY LAWS (Kashrut) Dietary laws govern the daily culinary lives of practicing Jews. Kashrut is derived from the Hebrew root Kaf-Shin-Reish, defined as "fit, proper or correct." The standard is also commonly known as kosher. Non-kosher food is known as treif, which originally referred to non-kosher meat only but now applies to all foods not prepared according to Jewish dietary laws. It is necessary for milk (milchig) and meat (fleishig) products to be kept completely separate in a kosher kitchen. The division commonly extends to different sets of crockery, cutlery, and different sinks to wash in. Glass utensils can be used for both milk and meat products because they are non-porous, and unlikely to hold traces of a previous meal. However, some Jews Some Jews boil kitchenware in water to remove impurities, while others might use a blowtorch. After eating meat, Jewish dietary law states a person must wait before eating dairy products; waiting times vary from two to six hours. > Meat & Poultry: Animals that chew their cud and possess spilt hooves are considered kosher (beef, lamb, veal), while pork and rabbits are forbidden. Game birds are accepted as kosher if they are slaughtered properly, but not if shot in the wild.
