The Rabbis Are Coming DINI HARRIS
T
hroughout the generations, we have constantly prayed for our return to Eretz Yisrael, the land that “Hashem’s eyes are always upon.” But physical conditions in Eretz Yisrael were so harsh that it wasn’t until the middle of the 19th century that large numbers of Jews began immigrating to the Holy Land. The Yishuv HaYashan in Yerushalayim consisted of upright, G-d-fearing Jews who dedicated their lives to spiritual pursuits and the study of Hashem’s Torah, and refused to allow the deplorable physical situation to hamper their achievements. This spiritual island remained secluded from the outside world for hundreds of years. At the end of the 19th century, economic troubles and pogroms in Eastern Europe ignited an interest in Zionism. As a result, between 1882 and 1903, some 25,000 people immigrated to Palestine.
28
The majority of those immigrants were shomer Torah and mitzvos. Intent on settling the Land, many moved to outlying settlements. But their enthusiastic work was not always initially successful. Hadera, for example, was established in 1891 by 20 religious families. Over the next three decades the community buried 40% of its members, mostly victims of malaria. The community also faced marauding Bedouins and was harassed by the Ottoman government. Desperate for help, some of these settlers turned to outside organizations for assistance. Baron Edmond de Rothschild and his Jewish Colonization Association offered financial aid and technological knowhow to struggling settlements. However, this assistance often came at a steep price. Baron Rothschild had very strong opinions about the proper running of various settlement institutions. They often gained control of the schools by placing
www.NyBuzzMagazine.com I To advertise, call 718-513-9885
modern teachers on the settlements. The religious settlers did not have the strength or ability to fight these secular influences. The second immigration wave started in 1904. In contrast to the First Aliyah, the majority of these immigrants were idealistic young socialists who tried to create a communal agricultural settlement system in Palestine. Fired with enthusiasm, they slowly gained control of the settlements. The Yishuv HaYashan was disturbed by the religious deterioration in the settlements. But without cars or trains, the physical distance made outreach almost impossible. Traveling by horse and buggy would take days and would require a large financial outlay. No one in the Yishuv HaYashan had the requisite funds to pay for such a trip. Things changed in the early 1900s when produce from these settlements began to reach the Yerushalayim markets. Could the
MAGAZINE
religious community eat this produce? Were the mitzvos hatiluyos b’aaretz observed in the irreligious settlements? Were terumos and maasros taken from these fruits and vegetables? The rabbis sent Rabbi Bentzion Yadler, a tzaddik, talmid chacham and fascinating orator, to tour the settlements and guide the settlers in how to separate terumos and maasros. The reports that he brought back made it clear that further outreach work was critical. Leading rabbanim volunteered to visit the settlements, and the Pekidim V’amraclim of Amsterdam agreed to fund the trip. The prestigious members of the Council for Elevating Religious Observance in the Holy Land included Rabbi Yaakov Moshe Charlop, Rabbi of Shaarei Chessed in Jerusalem; Rabbi Moshe Klariss, Chief Rabbi of Tiveria; Rabbi Baruch Marcus, Chief Rabbi of Chaifa; Rabbi Bentzion Yadler, Maggid; Rabbi Avraham Yitzchak HaKohen Kook, then Chief Rabbi of Yaffo; and Rabbi Yosef Chaim Sonnenfeld, legendary leader of the Yishuv HaYashan in Yerushalayim. They set out on a month-long journey during which they visited 23 settlements. Although the religious conditions varied in each location, over all, the situation was dismal. In Hadera, which had originally been established by religious families, there wasn’t even a daily minyan. The community elders managed to pull together a minyan only for Shabbos. The communal kitchen was completely treif, and in fact, the workers had refused a monetary grant since it would have required them to kasher the kitchen. Instead of studying Chumash, the young children were taught “Bible stories” and modern Hebrew. Some of them didn’t even know that Jewish people had rabbis and the concept of terumos and maasros was completely foreign to them. Despite their religious apathy and sometimes antipathy, most of the communities warmly welcomed the rabbis. The settlers gathered to listen to the rabbis’ suggestions and even agreed to many of their demands. They reciprocated the rabbis’ outpouring of warmth and love by displaying esteem and respect. The organizers of the trip reported that “unfortunately, we have taken this journey too late. However, much can still be accomplished.”
MAGAZINE
The spiritual effects of the rabbis’ visit cannot be measured, but unfortunately long-term plans for further outreach were truncated by the outbreak of the World War I, which wreaked havoc throughout the world, and severely affected the yishuv in Yerushalayim. Faced with severe poverty, disease, and death, the religious issues of the agricultural settlements fell to the wayside. Details of the historical journey were recorded by members of the delegation themselves. This journal was to be printed to inform people of the deplorable religious situation in the settlements and to raise the funds necessary to assist the settlers in
“The rabbis are coming!” Excited shouts could be heard throughout the wooden shack that housed the farmhands in the Poriah settlement. building mikvaos and shuls and hiring proper teachers for their children. The printing of this journal was delayed due to the outbreak of the war. It was eventually printed with a preface describing the terrible anguish of the Yishuv HaYashan in the wake of the war, and encouraging donations to help the yishuv’s survival. The following is an embellishment of a story recorded in the original journal.

he rabbis are coming!” Excited shouts could be heard throughout the wooden shack that housed the farmhands in the Poriah settlement. Bemused, Chaya Leah Slutzky watched her comrades changing out of their dirtied work clothes in honor of the rabbis’ impending visit.
I can’t believe they’re getting so excited, she thought, resting her head on her pillow and closing her eyes. They claim that their new religion is socialism. I didn’t know that socialism believed in rabbis. Chaya Leah turned over and tried to relax. Working in the almond fields day after day exhausted her. Back home in Orlik, Russia, she had been a student in the gymnasium. “Working the land” and “the benefits of physical labor” were nice slogans, but the actual work took a large toll on her body. “Comrades, quiet down,” she begged her friends. “I want to rest.” “Get up, Chaya Leah.” Her friend Esther playfully swatted at her with a hairbrush. “You’re always complaining that it’s so boring out here. Something’s finally happening. Get up and enjoy the excitement.” Reluctantly, Chaya Leah allowed herself to be pulled out of bed and to join the young workers who had lined up by the entrance of the village to greet the rabbis. Mr. Goldman, the administrator of Poriah, stepped forward to greet the carriage. Despite her apathy, Chaya Leah was awed by the majestic appearance of the rabbis as they alighted from the carriage. She studied their long beards and pei’os in curiosity. At least the men from the settlement were all wearing hats. In honor of the visit, vacation had been declared. Chaya Leah straggled behind the rabbis as Mr. Goldman gave them a guided tour around the settlement. She couldn’t hear anything that the rabbis were saying, but something inside her pushed her to keep the rabbis in view as long as possible. Craaaack! The sound of a gunshot startled Chaya Leah. A group of male workers ran up to tell Mr. Goldman that an Arab had tried to break into the sheep pen. Luckily, no one from the settlement had been hurt, and the thief had been caught before he was able to flee with the valuable animals. Chaya Leah walked over to the communal dining room where the
NyBuzzMagazine.com I To advertise, call 718-513-9885
29
young people had gathered, singing enthusiastically. As the rabbis approached the dining room, they spontaneously broke out into the popular song, “Adir Hu Yivneh HaGalil.” The song died down as the rabbis entered the room. Chaya Leah watched in amazement as the Chief Rabbi of Yaffo walked towards the center of the room to address the crowd. What could he say that would interest her irreligious friends? Her eyes were drawn to the holiness that emanated from Rabbi Kook’s face as she listened carefully to his words. She nodded in agreement as the rabbi discussed the chasm that had grown between the religious Yishuv HaYashan and the secular settlements. The rabbi opened his arms wide, as if to embrace the listening crowd, and said, “Today the Yishuv HaYashan regrets this detachment. We open our arms to
welcome all of you into our fold.” Chaya Leah looked around the dining room in wonder. Were these her antireligious, socialist cosettlers? The room was absolutely quiet as everyone present listened to the rabbi with rapt attention. Rabbi Kook ended his speech with a plea that the young settlers draw closer to the Yishuv HaYashan by strengthening their religious observance. He spoke about the kedushah of the Jewish people and begged the young boys and girls to kasher their communal kitchen and start observing the rules of separating milk from meat. Chaya Leah felt something churning inside her. What’s happing to me? she thought. She looked around, expecting to see her friends laughing at the rabbi’s suggestion. Kashrut was the kind of senseless ritual they ridiculed. But instead of snickering, they seemed to be carefully weighing his words. She watched in incredulity, as the young settlers committed themselves to kashering their kitchen. They would be honored if on his
next visit the rabbi would be able to eat with them and partake of their kosher food. Then Chaya Leah noticed Miriam, one of her friends, standing up in back of the room to get attention. “Before we know it…” Miriam began cynically. All eyes turned to her as she sarcastically finished her sentence, “…the rabbis are going to ask us to light Shabbos candles.” Chaya Leah felt like crawling under her chair in embarrassment. What a shameful way to respond to these holy rabbis! Rabbi Kook calmly and patiently returned to his former position in the middle of the room. “Please allow me to discuss another important issue,” he said, launching into a description of the beautiful and holy Shabbos, the tranquility of the day and the sanctity inherent in its observance. “Every Jewish home is illuminated by this wonderful day,” he proclaimed. “However, unkosher food contaminates the pure Jewish senses. People who eat treif lose their ability to perceive the sacred illuminations from the Shabbos candles.”
“Now that you’ve committed yourselves to kashrus observance, your special neshamah yesirah will begin to shine, and your eyes will also merit to see the ohr haganuz in the Shabbos candles.” Chaya Leah sat transfixed by the rabbi’s words. Sanctity… spirituality… Shabbos… these were concepts that she had never heard discussed. She was mesmerized and ready to do whatever he asked of her. The end of his speech brought her straight back to reality: the communal dining room filled with her irreligious, socialist colleagues. She looked around, but she hardly recognized the riotous, joke-cracking, irreverent group she knew. She saw serious faces, thoughtful looks and signs of introspection. Maybe she wasn’t the only one affected by the rabbi’s powerful words. Oh, no! Chaya Leah couldn’t bear to look. Miriam was standing up again. Should she run over and stop her rude remarks before she could say them? This time, however, Miriam’s abrasive stance had become more humble. She
spoke in a quieter voice, and her deep-felt emotions were apparent to all. “Rebbe, Rebbe, I promise you that from now on, we will light the Shabbos candles!” Miriam’s public renouncement of her former cynical attitude and her sharp about-face affected her comrades as much as the rabbi’s holy words had. Nothing more needed to be said. The young settlers silently left the dining room and drifted off to different parts of the settlement to mull over their feelings. Chaya Leah went back to their sleeping quarters. To think that just that very morning she had been lying in bed scoffing at the upcoming visit! But the rabbis’ visit had plumbed the depths of her soul, a soul of whose existence she had been virtually unaware. It may be the same bed, she thought, but I’m a different person. Would the dual commitment to observing kashrus and lighting Shabbos candles be sufficient to quiet all the churning inside her? Chaya Leah wasn’t sure.
Maybe she would travel to Yerushalayim to see these rabbis once again. Maybe she should plan an extended stay there. Of one thing she was sure, though: the stirring inside of her would take her to places that she had never before imagined, and she was ready and willing to take the journey. After midnight she stood with her friends at the entrance of the settlement to say good-by to the esteemed rabbis. They watched silently as the rabbis’ carriage drove out, flanked by eight accompanying soldiers on horseback. Not long afterwards, the rabbis received a report that the communal kitchen in Poriah had been kashered. That was one of the concrete, measurable outcomes of their massive efforts to reach their estranged brethren. However, many other echoes of their visit still resound today, many generations later. Chaya Leah, her children, her grandchildren and her great-grandchildren all point to that visit as the source of all the spiritual beauty that enriched and continues to enrich their lives as Torahobservant Jews.

Q
two sides of a coin
Dinner Trouble
REBBETZIN MALKA KAGANOFF
Q: I’ve been married for two and a half years. I feel a bit embarrassed bringing up such a small problem when so many people have serious shalom bayis problems, but even though I know my problem is trivial, it still bothers me. I tried a new chicken recipe for Shabbos last week, and my husband, who is usually courteous and pleasant, told me he didn’t like it. He didn’t raise his voice or anything, but I’m still feeling upset. Am I being supersensitive? Should I just try to forget the whole thing? I didn’t say anything yet, and I don’t even think my husband realizes that he hurt me. Should I say something? Should I swallow it? I don’t know what to do. — Still Upset in Monsey A: Dear Still Upset,
I applaud your efforts in coming forth with this “minor” problem even if it seems that other people have greater difficulties than this. Often the best way to nip a problem in the bud is to deal with it as soon as it comes up, rather than allowing it to fester. And even small problems deserve to be analyzed and addressed, if they are causing you distress. Communication is a good thing, and I don’t recommend that you “swallow” your feelings. However, I don’t recommend that you share your reaction to your husband’s comments with him until you process what occurred and can present a pleasantly worded reply. Let us analyze what has transpired. It is sometimes helpful to remove yourself from the situation and view it objectively. Husband is served a food that is not to his liking. He shares his opinions regarding the food with his wife. Wife, who has invested efforts to create a dish
40
appealing to her husband, is hurt at hearing her husband’s criticism. This is an expected reaction, since she wants to please her husband and has been told that her efforts were unsuccessful. When the situation is presented this way, it is apparent that the husband has not done anything majorly wrong. Would you prefer to have your husband tell you that the chicken tastes delicious while pouring it into his shoe? You seem to realize on an intellectual level that your husband should be permitted and even encouraged to share his preferences. The problem is that this intellectual knowledge does not prevent you from feeling hurt when you are criticized. Otherwise
www.NyBuzzMagazine.com I To advertise, call 718-513-9885
put: Your husband had something valid to say, but you did not appreciate hearing his comments. Is there a solution to this? Criticism is difficult to take, and you seem to be particularly sensitive to negative comments, but I think the situation can be improved if you keep certain pointers in mind. First, remind yourself that your husband does not mean to insult you with his comments. He probably doesn’t realize that you consider his comment on the food as a personal condemnation. You are fortunate that he tried to be polite and did not share his comments in a sarcastic, mocking manner. He wasn’t abusive or even nasty, and he didn’t yell or insult you. Perhaps MAGAZINE
Q
you feel that he is not sufficiently appreciative of the time and effort you invested in this dish. In all likelihood, he does not realize how much time and planning cooking takes. Second, try to figure out why you are so sensitive to a comment about your cooking. Why do you feel threatened by this comment? Are you feeling insecure in your role as homemaker? Have you equated your self-worth with your ability to prepare a tasty Shabbos meal? Are you a perfectionist? Did the criticism come at an inopportune moment—were you overtired, overworked or over-stressed? Was this the fifth criticism of the day? Hopefully you can focus on putting your husband’s comment in perspective and move past it. After you calm yourself you can turn to your husband and say, “Thank you for sharing your taste preferences with me. I really want to hear what you like so I can know what to cook.

I appreciate when you acknowledge my efforts, and also when you give me positive feedback at well.” Best of luck in your efforts!
Q
Dear Rebbetzin Kaganoff, I don’t know what went wrong last Friday night. I mentioned to my wife that I don’t enjoy fricassee, and she got all insulted. I thought she would appreciate it if I tell her the truth. Why should she work to prepare something for me that I don’t like? Sometimes it is so MAGAZINE
Spouses observe each other on a regular basis and can fall into a pattern of excessive criticism... hard to figure my wife out. — Confused Avreich A: Dear Confused, I agree that it is difficult for a man to understand his wife. Keep working on it; as time goes by you will begin to make headway. Let’s analyze what happened here. From your point of view, you made an innocuous comment. Your wife, however, did not take the comment as your feelings about fricassee in general, but as a criticism of the fricassee that she made. She worked hard to please you and rather than having her efforts appreciated, she felt criticized. Now that you realize that this is a sensitive topic, it may be a good idea to be extra-gentle when commenting on your wife’s cooking. First compliment all the dishes that you liked. Then mention that the fricassee was also good, but just not to your liking. You can point out that you’re only mentioning this since you know that she wants to please you, and you assume that she would want this information. And of course, mention that you realize how much effort she invests in her cooking, and how it is appreciated. Timing is also a factor here. Your pleasantly worded comment will be better accepted if you wait a few days. Then your wife will be a bit
removed from the situation and the criticism will not sting as much. There is an art to delivering constructive criticism and an art to receiving critical comments. The goal of criticism is not to attack a person but to correct a specific action. Spouses observe each other on a regular basis and can fall into a pattern of excessive criticism. No one appreciates a nag, so in general it’s a good idea to keep criticism and disapproving comments to a minimum. If you are the criticizer, try to put yourself in the position of the receiver of the criticism and see how you would feel being on the receiving end of this comment. If you are the receiver, remind yourself that sometimes you too have preferences to share, and you would want your spouse to accept your criticism graciously. Best of hatzlachah to you as you grow together as a couple and learn to share ideas graciously.

AND ONE FOR ME The Woman Who Won a Lottery — and Built Synagogues
MIRISH KISZNER
R
are is the grandmother who doesn’t love to show off her grandchildren. A framed portrait gracing the coffee table depicting a toddler romping in the grass. A video clip of a little boy throwing his head back in laughter, his lilting voice like music. The mini photo album tucked into a proud grandma’s purse filled with smiling, happy children at play, at the park, at a wedding… But the pictures crowding the photo albums of Dubbe (“Dubbele”) Stern are of a different stock. No pictures of smiling babies peer out from those pages, no family portraits, no images of fathers looking down at their sons with unmasked pride. But this elderly woman displays her own set of nachas with unadulterated joy. In Dubbele’s albums, if you get to thumb through them, you will find pictures of synagogues, lecterns and prayerbooks. There are pictures of a Torah Scroll dedication celebration. Of dancing and leaping in tight circles around a canopy…Torches burning bright held high by little children parading before the new Torah… Sitting beside Dubbe at a circumcision, I listen as she tells me the story behind those albums. “I don’t have anyone,” she begins. “Not a husband, not a sister, not a child, not a grandchild. I have G‑d,” she says with a twinkle in her eyes and that sincere smile that never leaves her face. She’s dressed simply, in plain clothes, old and worn, that belie a woman known to have won the lottery. “Tell me about yourself,” I say. She laughs; a delicate, tinkling laughter like the sound of the china dishes the waiters are carting away. A CHILDHOOD CUT SHORT “I was born in Warsaw, Poland,” she begins. “Tatte [Father] was very religious. But bread there wasn’t and we lived in a cellar. My parents came to live in Warsaw from a small shtetl nearby to look for a livelihood. I went to the Bais Yaa-

kov school for girls. “Then the war broke out in 1939. I was caught one day as I was walking on the street, and then I was liberated by the ninth armored division,” she says, opening and closing this harrowing chapter of her life in one breath—a subtle clue, perhaps, that explains her unwavering joyfulness. I wait for more. Those words – war, 1939, the Warsaw Ghetto – history-packed words…they dangle before me, enticingly, as I look up at the woman who carries all those memories in her heart. “How old were you?” I gently prod, searching for a side entrance to that pain-filled domain. “I was a young girl, maybe twelve or thirteen. We were six children: Moshe who learned in Baranovitch, Kalmen, Yankel, David, Rivkale and me—Dubbela. I was hungry. I would go out to look for bread, my brother and I. I was always on the alert, scanning the countryside for signs of danger—I knew that if a Jewish child is discovered a kilometer away from the city, she was shot. “One day, as I was roaming the countryside, I saw a man moving cautiously along. He was using a walking stick to feel out what’s around him, he was obviously blind. As he came closer, I heard him muttering under his breath that whoever will escort him will have what to eat. So I offered to accompany him and he was happy.
“It’s my day today. I’m on my way to buy a lottery ticket and I’m sure that I’ll win.”
We went up to a little shack and he knocked on the door. A polish peasant woman opened the door and the blind man began to sing a Christian song. Hearing him, the woman ushered us into her home and served us some soup… “In this way, we spent a few weeks, wandering and begging, the blind man and I, knocking on doors, subsisting on a piece of bread, a plate of soup, and every now and then, an egg. Until, out of the blue, the blind man disappeared. “I was on my own again. When hunger overtook me, I would walk up to one of the little huts dotting the roads and beg the gentiles living there to give me something to eat, a corner to sleep.” Dubbele’s looks up at me, there’s laughter in her eyes. “You could make a movie out of my story, eh?” She continues her story: “And so roaming the fields, I discovered an underground bunker where Jews were hiding out and they allowed me to join them. Whenever our food supply ran out, we would sneak out again to search for food: some corn, a bit of flour, every bit was precious. One day, as I was making my way across a highway in search for a farmer, a group of SS men swooped down on all the passersby and threw us into waiting trucks. “I found myself in a transport sent to the SkarżyskoKamienna slave labor camp. There I worked in a munitions factory, filling bullets with explosive powder, and then loading heavy, sixteen kilo barrels onto railway wagons. Later I was sent to a munitions plant in Leipzig. With the help of the UNNRA I came to Israel in 1948. I ask about the rest of the family and she tells me she never heard from them again. “Maybe they died in Treblinka, or of starvation in the ghetto, I’ll never know. My brother Moshe who learned in Baranovitch,” she becomes thoughtful, “maybe he’ll read this story and we’ll find each other…” THE LOTTO TICKET Dubbele got married to her husband, Tuvia, in 1957 and put her holocaust experiences behind her. She wanted nothing more than to build a new generation of Jewish children. However, it wasn’t destined to be. She never had children. Still, Dubbele’s joie de vivre never waned. Always she found ways to fill her life with joy, giving of herself, spreading happiness wherever she went. “I had an interesting hobby. Every week I would go out to buy a lottery ticket. There was one number I played with, all the time, 15,1957—the date of my wedding. My husband would laugh, ‘A million people

buy the lottery,’ he would say, ‘you’ll be the winner? It’s impossible. Don’t burn up money, give it to charity, if you must.’ But Dubbele always assured him that one day she will indeed win the lottery. “One day, I was walking down Allenby St. with a dance in my step and humming a tune to myself when I met Rebbetzin Mund. ‘Dubbela, why are you singing?’ She asked, ‘What’s making you so happy?’ I told her, ‘It’s my day today. I’m on my way to buy a lottery ticket and I’m sure that I’ll win.’ “Rebbetzin Mund, the wife of Rabbi Simcha Mund, was a righteous woman, a good-hearted woman. She must have felt like humoring me. ‘If you’re going to win,’ she said, ‘let me join you. I’ll be your partner in the lottery.’ I said, ‘Great, you’re a rebbetzin, you are a holy woman, I can hardly stand next to you. You be the one to pull out the ticket.’ “’No,’ she said. ‘It’s your day, you be the one.’ So I bought a lottery ticket, placed the receipt in my pocket, thanked the rebbetzin, and was on my way.” That week, Dubbele’s wedding date turned out to be the winning numbers. She won fifty thousand dollars— a small fortune in the late 1960s. Without a moment’s hesitation Dubbele hurried to the rebbetzin and presented her with half the money. The rabbi and his rebbetzin were incredulous. “It’s your money,” they protested. “You could build yourself a beautiful five storey home!” “No it belongs to both of us,” Dubbele insisted. “We made a partnership.” In addition to the twenty five thousand dollars, Dubbela counted out two thousand five hundred dollars and
handed it to the rabbi. “This is a tenth of the money. Give it to the charity of your choice.” The rest of the money Dubbele presented to her husband. “It’s for you,” she said. “What do I need?” THE DIVIDENDS Tuvia invested the money in a real estate property and Dubbele stopped buying lottery tickets. Years passed. Tuvia Stern left the world. Dubbele was alone once again. And yet, the joy on her face, her zest for living never left her. Eventually she sold the property her husband had purchased and used those funds to build two synagogues: “One for my husband and one for me.” Today, if one ventures to walk through the timeless arches and quaint twisting alleyways of the Meah Shearim neighborhood in Jerusalem, one comes across a small, humble structure. “Tuvia’s Shteeble,” reads the placard that hangs over the entrance. And in a city not too far away, the city of Ashdod, there stands another synagogue, “Beit Feige Dubba.” Each one a silent tribute to a woman who once searched for bread to nourish her body and now hungers for food to nourish her soul. And Dubbe herself? She can be found inside a hospital cafeteria or a senior citizen home, feeding a forlorn patient, smiling to an elderly woman, spreading her sunshine, giving to others wherever she goes. “I have no one,” she says. “No one but my Father in Heaven.” And of course, the albums filled with pictures of the two synagogues she built — her greatest joy in life...

Time Saving Crockpot Recipes P
esach is around the corner, the house is turned upside down every nook and cranny being cleaned and made chometz free. But life goes on and the family needs to eat. Fixing dinner can be a daunting task. Wouldn’t it be marvelous if dinner cooked itself and was ready to serve to your hungry family as they step into the house? There is a way, and the crockpot is the answer. A marvelous little pot that does most of the job for you; freeing up your time for more important chores. Concentrate on your cleaning tasks work with ease knowing that dinner will be ready when you are. Even though you are busy with Pesach preps no one has to go hungry. Most people use their crockpot only to cook their tcholent for the Shabbos morning meal, yet I have discovered that it can also be used to advantage any other day of the week. If the crockpot is useful all year around this time of year it is almost indispensable, Simple hassle free one-dish meals can be cooked with fabulous results. It could not be easier, just place all ingredients into the crockpot in the morning and let it do the rest. You will be happily surprised with the resultsdeliciously evenly cooked meals that are ready to be served at your whim. Today we even have the additional advantage of a crockpot liner, which affords us minimum clean up as well. The crockpot cooks gently, so don’t worry about length of cooking time. If you are in a hurry, cook on high for first 1 to 3 hours and then turn down to low for the remaining time. Try not to remove the lid during the cooking process, for that will cause steam to escape and cooking will take longer. Lately I have been taking meals out of the freezer, one bucket of rice and another of beans and warming it in the crock pot, with delicious results, especially since it is ready when I am, and it is not necessary to scramble to warm up my food the last minute. The meal feels more lavish when it is ready ahead of time. A single dish served with a healthy tossed salad is all you need for a perfect meal accomplished to perfection with little effort.
