Matthue Roth posted this below in quotes during the week about Australia's Top Kosher Chef and then I will have some comments on kosher things and you!
And new to our book shop is Master Chefs cooking kosher.

How timely! And yours if you want on sale, too. Doubly good. This from Roth:
"Just in case you weren’t ready to have your mind blown, turn back now. The following video is a commercial for a kosher cooking competition. In Australia. Like “Iron Chef” or “Top Chef” or “Man V. Food” — well, probably not so much like “Man V. Food,” but I still can’t believe that show exists, let alone that the host is pals with my coworker Jeremy. One thing you have to understand before you watch the video is that “MasterChef,” Australia’s version of the aforementioned shows, is the most popular programme in the country. Its finale was rated higher than the Olympics.
You might think Darth Vader is narrating, but it’s my uncle. (I mean that as a compliment, I promise.) And you can spot glimpses of my brother-in-law as well as my soul brother, local (Melbourne) Jewish celebrity Bram Presser, ex-lead singer of YIDCore.
OK — I laugh, and you kind of need to laugh, but this video is awesome. Partly that kosher cooking has gotten sophisticated enough so that a competition like this (a) exists, (b) is taken seriously, and (c) people are paying money to go to a swanky theater (that isn’t even a Jewish theater) to watch the competition. I mean, sure, they do this kind of kosher cooking contest in New York (and my wife reports on it)…but in Melbourne? Go you people.
I really should be rooting for my bro, but DL, the wife of my study partner, is also involved. It’s a toss-up. If you’d like to be part of the real winners — that is, the crowd — just go here and reserve yourself a ticket. (Ticket to Australia not included, by the way. Sorry!)"
So watch the show, enjoy the festivities, if you can handle yet one more reality show. Ponder what kosher cooking on tv looks like. And at the end of the day, look for God to make you kosher, too.
After all, kosher means 'fit' or 'fit for use' and the most important thing to certify as kosher is yourself. What makes us fit is being in right standing with HIm, and that comes by faith, and forgiveness. Anything less than that, is ...well, less than that. Being right is being declared innocent. Justified. Just as if I'd never sinned.
And the Bible says we are justified by faith in Y'shua the Messiah. That's awesome and worth all the pondering and all the celebrations and the television ...get right with God, and celebrate with us.
