KASHERING the Kitchen | How to Kasher a Kitchen | Orthodox Jewish Mom (Passover Prep 2021)

In this video I am showing you all the whole process of kashering our kitchen for Passover. From cleaning and prepping to kashering dishes and countertops, even what I do to drawers and countertops, this video has it all! SO if you have ever wondered what it takes to make a kitchen kosher for passover or year round, this video is for you! This is all done from our Sephardi traditions, if you are looking for Ashkenazi traditions of kashering a kitchen, most of this is the same, but there are a few differences. Contacting your local orthodox rabbi is
always recommended in matters of halakha.
Hello and welcome! My name is Chana, I’m married to my best friend, and we have three wonderful children together. We also happen to be Orthodox Jews and we homeschool our kids. This video is a sneak peek into our daily lives :) You can see how this particular Jewish homeschool mom sets up her days, rolls with the punches, and gets it all done. Thanks for watching!

I feel like this video doesn’t convey how exhausting this whole process can be 😂 The job is done now though and that’s so satisfying. Excited for family to arrive later today! Heads up: I won’t be posting a video Monday because of the Passover Holiday, but plan to post Thursday during Chol Hamoed! Have a great weekend everyone! Happy Passover / Chag Sameach to those who are celebrating!

The biggest tragedy is to deny Jesus Christ. The tragedy of not understanding Him, God, the God head, God, the Son, Jesus and the Holy Spirit. I’m afraid you nor your sister understand where you come from, what Christianity means and where you are going. The Jews at this point are very incomplete people.

@@biancahotca3244 I do not deny Jesus Christ. You are judging someone you do not know. I believe I can learn about another’s religion respectfully. I believe in loving my sister because she is my sister. I can learn and not convert myself. I can respect others beliefs even if I don’t share them. I can absolutely love people who are different than myself. I think it’s possible to hear people, value them and still maintain my own beliefs. Have a great day.

Kashering a kitchen is a lot of work but it is so worth it. One of my favourite parts of being Jewish is that our days, years and lives are structured in such a way that we are reminded to be thankful and reflect AND CLEAN. Haha! Another great video, Chana. Chag Sameach!

I found this video very interesting. I grew up in a Southern Baptist home. Before Easter and Christmas my mother always cleaned everything in the kitchen with boiling water. The counters, dishes, pots, silverware and refrigerator. It was a tradition passed down from many generations. I never thought to ask why and now my mother and grandmother have passed on. I do not use boiling water but do a very thorough cleaning before the holidays. Thank you for sharing.

As far as using the wet vac, I think this is sheer genius. Kashering the countertops makes the mother of all messes and I also liked how you incorporated the electric tea kettle. I have been making Pesach for over 30 years and it’s refreshing to be able to learn new tricks. Thank you 😍

About twice a year my mother and my grandmother would clean the dining room and dishes and line the dish cabinets with clean paper. For holidays we had separate dishes and silverware. I it very interesting that this was similar to some Jewish tradition. My mother was not a religious person at all. My grandmother was Catholic and her family came to USA around 1910 just before she was born.

Chana, I am a new subscriber (from Israel) and I am enjoying your vlogs very much. In my family we have a separate set of dishes, pots, pans and silverware for passover. It saves a lot of time preparing the kitchen for passover. I pack up the kitchen and close up the kitchen cupboards, wash down the counters and get rid of all chamets. After passover, before we use bring in chamets, I pack up the passover dishes and once they are stored until the next year, I just re-open my cupboards and we're all set. Hope you have a Shanna Tova (just around the corner).

@@jaroffireflies My spiritual journey began as a Baptist then converted to Eastern Orthodox Christianity (Greek) as an adult, which I loved. The special rituals there made me want even more lovely rituals to remind me of Spirit's presence and manifestation in my life. I have even added a tab to my "Spiritual Mentors" binder: "Chana - Jar of Fireflies" where I'm capturing some of the blessings you deliver in your delightful videos. Thanks so much!!!

This brings back so many memories. We had two kitchens in our house growing up, it was a process. So many things to be stored and donated. We always started about a month out eating out our pantry/freezers so nothing would be left the week before passover. Even our emergency supplies got rotated. Our deep clean for Rosh Hashanah was also a serious under taking. My Grandmother would even pull us from school to get it done if we were hosting that year. Not a single thing in the house wasn't cleaned it felt like. I always got the walls and ceiling since I didn't mind climbing the ladder.

It is so interesting as a Christian raised person, the amount of things that we do that are so similar to your practices we just call them something else or practice for a different reason. After all Christians come from Jews. Really love your content and happy spirit!!! May God bless you and your family always ❤️

Thanks Chana!!!! Chag Sameach to you and your family!!! You know I haven’t understood why ashkenaz seem overwhelmed by the dishes portion of Pesach. My mother is Sephardi but my father is ashkenaz so we went with most things by that tradition, and every year as a little girl I SO looked forward to my mom pulling out the Pesach dishes and having one full week where we eat with things I felt only princesses used!!!! Ha ha! My mom had these ‘Royal looking’ (yet dishwasher safe!) white plates with flowers and a gorgeous flatware set they got for their wedding, and breakfast lunch and dinner all Pesach was with them. I thought it was because Pesach is special and I wanted to grow up to have a royal set for every holiday. 😊 B”H if I’ll have the room!! Pesach Sameach!

I adore that story! Thank you so much for sharing! I (personally) love having nice dishes for shabbat and the holidays. We don't have a special set for passover, but I am glad we don't have to use paper plates (Though I know a ton of people who love doing that). I think it does add to the holiday and makes it more special.

I love a clean kitchen but what you do to get ready for Passover is a huge undertaking! Wow it’s amazing!
