Tag #150477 - Interview #78242 (Ruvin Gitman)

Our family always celebrated the Sabbath and Jewish holidays. My mother always cooked bean or carrot tsimes [2], chicken broth, chicken and fish. My mother baked challah, cookies and pies with cottage cheese or meat. We had separate dishes for meat and dairy products. The rules of kashrut were strictly followed. The shochet in Kopaygorod killed chicken and geese. If there was a calf or lamb to be slaughtered, the shochet was invited to come to our house before major Jewish holidays or family celebrations.
