Guest Posted March 23, 2004 Report Share Posted March 23, 2004 the article says that about 25-30% keep their lifestyle 'Kosher'. Like you say ... it would be tough go in LOS or most places in Asia. Guess you'd be eating at vegetarian places a lot. So here a good one for all you Bkk residents ........... any Kosher restaurants? I know there are halal places off soi3.

Guest Posted March 23, 2004 Report Share Posted March 23, 2004 OK and since this started about 'Muslum food' the following are NOT allowed in a Muslum diet: The arabic word (Haram) means unlawful. The following items have been categorically spelled out as being Haram by jurists in light of the Holy Quran and the Sunnah of the Prophet Mohammad : 1. Pig 2. Blood 3. Carnivorous animals 4. Almost all reptiles and insects 5. The bodies of dead animals 6. Halal animals which are not slaughtered according to the Islamic Law. 7. Wine, Ethyl Alcohol, and Spirits. The above mentioned items are Haram and should be avoided by all Muslims. So although chicken is, I guess Coq au Vin is off the dinner list.

Nervous_Dog Posted March 23, 2004 Report Share Posted March 23, 2004 I remember going to a reception centre, and the kitchen was in Chaos, apparently a "Ultra orthodox" group where having a function, and every thing was stripped down, the cooking staff brought in their own cutlery etc. But thats a very small percent of most "Kosher" events I suspect. Not sure about any Kosher restaurants in Bangkok, but this lists a few of them http://www.shamash.org/cgi-bin/kosher/kosscan.pl Next time your in town we'll take you with us on a Friday to the Arabic places.

Is the filling a standard filling or can it vary? yes, like almost all recipies it will depend on the ingredients available and the tastes of the cook :: basically: a firm white fleshed fish (often whitefish or pike or pickerel in Canada) oil, eggs and Matzo meal an onion diced fine perhaps and seasoning, usually just salt, pepper and sugar. Basically you are making 'Fish Balls' Poach in a fish stock traditionally. Matzo meal is a baked wheat unleavened wheat cracker that is then ground. The 'Gefullte' means stuffed, as the traditional ingredients were stuffed back into the fish skin before poaching. I'm sure the Thais would love them. :: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
