When raising our children, Rav Berkovits advises us that every chinuch consideration should be future-oriented. If your children are neglecting certain mitzvos out of rebellion, forcing them just won't generate warm feelings towards you - or to their inner spiritual yearnings. Hear a fundamental talk on being equally attentive to the short, and the long-term needs of your children's growth and well-being.
This class covers the laws of "beged ish" the habits of men and women as they apply to the opposite gender. Rav Berkovits brings contemporary examples such as: wearing clothing of the opposite gender, dressing up on Purim, men looking in the mirror, a woman taking up arms, and many more. An interesting talk.
For many wives, the experience of 10 Days of Awe consists of cooking, kids and keeping house. In this two part class Rav Berkovits firstly explains how a responsible husband, particularly during the month of Elul, can encourage his wife to grow, and in what ways he can help lessen her burden. In the second part hear practical ways he can share his daily acquired knowledge with her - especially during the first year of marriage. Learn the art of sharing life messages with the one you love the most.
Lettuce is a known problem when it comes to checking for bugs because the pesky green fly it attracts is so well camouflaged, and looks so much like part of the leaf. Rav Berkovits gives some easy tricks to get around infested vegetables. Also discussed are various opinions on the kashrus of milk and cheese - such as chalav stam, and using powdered milk or rennet in cheese.
Buying meat from the butcher is not quite as simple as the packaging makes it sound. It's important to know basic information, such as what glatt really means, and how the veins are removed from the meat, if at all. And what if you notice a chicken wing is broken after you get home? How does one kasher liver, and what do you do if an egg has a bloodspot? Rav Berkovits covers a lot of ground with great clarity.
The basic parameters of the laws regarding meat and milk seem simple - don't cook them together, eat them together, or derive benefit from a mixture of the two. In truth, it can get complicated. Rav Berkovits gives a detailed rundown, from how to deal with eating one after the other, what to do when meat and milk accidentally get mixed, and much more. A must listen for keeping a kosher kitchen.
What is the status of a pot or pan that cooked something non-kosher? Is it necessary to throw out dairy food that was cooked in a meat pot or vice versa? What if parve food was cooked in a meat pot - is it considered meat? Rav Berkovits also deals with sharp foods, and where the law differs regarding their usage.
Ovens and stoves can be pretty straightforward until the major culprit is taken into account - how and where steam rises and touches can become very problematic. It affects passing one pot over the other, as well as adding spices to cooking food. And can you use the same oven for meat and dairy? Once again, steam comes into play. Rav Berkovits also covers the basics of koshering various kitchen utensils, as well as appliances.
