as people are getting logged on let's uh
let's begin the program over here so
welcome everybody to Shabbat table 2.0
we are going from Shabbat table to
Shabbat Abel we're really going to get a
chance as this program goes on to learn
more and more about how to properly
observe Shabbat and keep Shabbat and
prepare for Shabbat before we go to our
featured guest speaker we're going to
have a quick thought from Josh
Schottenstein so this week's parsha is a
double portion actually who cast ball
luck there's so much to talk about the
idea of a Hoke maybe Josh will share
with us something about that the story
of Pawlik and Bill um great story so a
lot to talk about but obviously we're
only going to get a little snippet
please enlighten us with a little bit of
wisdom Josh I'll do my best
first I want to thank Rabbi captain
Steve for getting me involved in the
Shabbat table and also for helping me
provide some insight into this week's
Bar show as you said it talks about a
hook which as I understand is a mitzvah
without any apparent reason so I did a
little bit of trying to do a little bit
of research and I understand that myths
both are kind of divided into two
categories leukemia and Misha team so
Misha my team would be apparent reasons
and then Hawker Killeen would not have
an apparent reason
a little bit of historical context I
found out a pure hook is related to the
laws of the red heifer or the para
adamah which has to deal with if a
person becoming in pure pure red heifer
should be slaughtered and burned mixed
with ashes and water and sprinkled over
them for seven days so that's kind of
like the purest form of a hook but as
King Solomon's tried to understand that
but he even said it was out of his grasp
was the quote that I found so
take away their from for that is that
sometimes we need to work to understand
each spoke and make them meaningful even
as we realize that they contain a depth
beyond our comprehension there's a
debate amongst sages about the hope
which basically is why would a Shem give
us a mitzvah without a reason
rabbi Dawid cohen of brooklyn talks
about how if a person can be subservient
to that gem even when he doesn't
understand he most certainly will be
disciplined and more subservient when he
does understand that that was that
resonated another example of like a
cloak and that I found was the blowing
of the shofar I think we all kind of
rationalized that as a wake-up call but
there is not apparently like a specific
reason about blowing the shofar we do it
because a Shem told us to and I think
all this sort of applies to our
contemporary life today about the
unexpected and life can throw us a lot
of curveballs and things that we don't
expect
and now Shem wants us to be strong
through it all and if we can find the
humility of doing Commandments even when
we don't understand them fully we might
be able to manage more with strength to
serve Hashem properly and I think it
also builds resilience and obviously a
very timely example is the pandemic
encoded 19 a lot of confusion and a lot
of unknown not knowing how things turned
out
and so rabbit happens to gain nail that
I think talking about how the lessons of
the Hope talked about if we maintain our
commitment to Judaism during these times
just imagine what we'll be able to do
when we come out of this so I thought
that was
that kind of encapsulated everything
okay
Thank You Josh that was beautiful you
really did a great job and shared a nice
piece of wisdom okay so we are really
lucky our featured speaker we have a
really really cool person with us today
his name is mr. Sol were Tucker he's the
CEO of a company called outer stuff he's
known for his philanthropy is activism
sits on many boards including an
important one called yeah good us-israel
I don't know if you guys have heard of
that it was recently an event called the
sium hashas that was a big event
attended by in person a hundred thousand
Jews and many more screaming in live he
was the chairman of that event so
someone whose time is very important and
we really really really appreciate your
giving us a few minutes of your time and
without further ado take it away
thank you everybody you know what he
talked about a Hulk not understanding
I'm really not understanding why I'm
here speaking tonight but I'm gonna try
to do my best and give over the message
I understand that the session it's about
the sharpest table and you know I'm an
Arab are you I'm not I'm not here to
give you the halter laws of Shabbat or
the talking to you about the beauty of
Shabbat why Shabbat they keep Shabbat is
so important but as a business person
and especially in a business that has
nothing to do with about and as a matter
of fact when I went into this business
I'm in the sports business so some of
you may have heard me speak and may have
heard some of these stories but you know
sports businesses open our chocolate
sports business they play games on
Shabbos there's World Series games on
Shabbos there's MBA championship came to
those chambers and we're closed on
chocolates and I'm the one that's
supplying all of the you know stuff for
the sports leagues for the NFL for the
NBA and so so the that I think that the
message and I'm going to tell you some
very very cute stories how actually
keeping Shabbos has impacted my business
very positively not the other way around
but I think I'm the classic example that
if you think that by keeping Shabbos and
keeping Shabbat in any
way shape or form it's going to stop you
from doing whatever you want to do and
accomplish whatever you want to do I'm
the prime example here to say absolutely
not
and and I'm gonna give you some examples
of of how difficult it was but how
worthwhile it was and because of all the
sacrifices that we made I think we were
more successful than ever before because
people understood there were people of
principle where a business where where
where where principle people were moral
people we're serious about our religion
and therefore we're serious about our
honesty and integrity so tell you a cute
story so maybe 25 20 22 years ago 25
years ago I got my first license from
the NFL and so I'm attending my first
Super Bowl and I don't know if some of
you have heard this term attending my
first Super Bowl ever and they tell me
the big event that all of the licensees
have to attend is this Super Bowl brunch
on Shabbos lunchtime on Shabbat
lunchtime I said how can I go to this
event but they said to me it's almost
like mandatory this isn't your first
year and that you're a licensee and how
could you not go and attend this event
so I'm thinking about it I get up in the
morning I go to synagogue and you know
wasn't wasn't too far thankthank about
for having a synagogue everywhere I
think this particular Super Bowl was in
Arizona I go to synagogue I come back
and I sit down and I have part of my
Shabbat meal and then I googled and I
saw that this brunch wherever it was I
looked at but before Shabbat was about
maybe two miles away so do miles I'm in
pretty good shape I'm a runner on the
job that puts 2 miles out of respect I
want to show them respect
I'm gonna go to this for this brunch in
theater photos thing so I get up I start
walking and I'm walking and I walk in
and as I'm walking you know what people
I stopping with the car say Saul you
want a ride I said it's Shabbat I don't
go into a car second guy stop in the
third person stop and finally by the
time I get there the word is out that
this crazy guy Saul is it's his Sabbath
and he's not able to get into a car nice
walking or he's sweating and
what he's look at the brush I walk into
their brunch and the Commissioner comes
running over to me you're and he says to
me Saul is it really true that you
walked here I said yeah if you got a
respect I don't ride in a car in this
habit I keep Sabbath and you know out of
respect me I wanted to come and show my
respects I appreciate the fact that I'm
member of the NFL family and he said but
it's hot outside and I said yeah but
it's gonna be even out of what I have to
walk back the same composite okay and
and he was very very impressed and he
came a month before next Super Bowl
and the Commissioner called up in a
secretary call up my secretary the S
which hotel is all staying in during the
Super Bowl my secretary told him and he
said he sent out an edict at the NFL and
from now on and every single Super Bowl
branch wherever Saul is staying for
Shabbat that's where we're having the
brunch he should have to walk so I mean
it everybody knows it so now it's been
22 or 23 years and I go to show I got a
synagogue in the morning I do my meal I
have to walk just downstairs to the
lobby and wherever I'm staying the NFL
takes that ballroom and invites hundreds
of people so instead of me bending and
and and by showing that that how
important that is to me by showing how
important observing the Sabbath and I'm
not going to bend the rule they want to
send the pedicab they asked me if I
would go on the bicycle
I said listen pure we don't we don't go
anywhere
they change and and accommodated
accommodated me pleasure bath and and
everybody knows about it and it it
became there are so many other people
that were borderline that really didn't
they were nervous it's their business
how can they keep open on shoppers I'll
never forget many years ago we also do
Major League Baseball's I remember the
World Series the last game of the World
Series the Yankees were playing was on
Chavez and you know it's a big thing for
us you know you see those guys that stay
up a whole night and they printed
t-shirts that's us know they super it's
a super ball it's a major league it's
the World Series championships and
obviously the second we know who's going
to win
we start the printing presses but a job
is we don't do anything i Chavez in a
way and I went I went to the service as
I went to shul you know you know Shabbos
afternoon and I come home I watch since
the phone has been ringing off the wall
after wall every two minutes is the
phone I looked at my clock and it's it
was time with empty Shabbos I made
Abdullah and I answered the phone it was
the Commission was but sirico happens to
be Jewish and he says to me Saul I know
Shabbos is over I said but how do you
know shot mrs. OB says I want I looked
it off and it said that when there's
three stars in the sky Shabbat is over
he says I went outside I looked in the
sky I sort of three stars why didn't you
pick up the phone we gotta stop printing
the Yankees I'm gonna it's in the
seventh inning he says and I don't know
if the score was eight to two or
something he says it's a guarantee
they're gonna win stop printing so we
could get insurance but he says I saw in
the sky waited till I saw three stars
before I coach and you know I have
countless and countless stories like
this about and and and so many of my
people we had we had a situation many
years ago in the NBA the Commission is
as Jewish and and he was a good friend
of mine he passed away recently David
Stern he was a great guy and I'll never
forget you know we found a local
wherever the NBA all-star weekend was we
went there with my kids
and we made a ship out and this we
always made a Shabbat dinner we called
up the local Habad we made services you
know in the hotel and then we cater a
dinner so we out of dinner the first
year maybe we had seven or eight people
and somebody from the NBA comes over and
he says to me you do this every year we
said yes
it said next year we're gonna send out a
memo to all of the owners to all of the
NBA staff to tell them that is so now it
became an annual thing we have between
eighty and a hundred people and every
NBA all-star it became a big thing we
even print special prayer books special
looks like a hardwood floor and it's the
end became a big memento to get an NBA
all-star weekend sitter for Shabbat and
we hold Shabbat and you can even imagine
how beautiful it the Commissioner comes
down
times my kids so I again I can tell you
a million stories about how by not
compromising by keeping Shabbat Shabbos
and and and how many people's lives we
influence and what it did to our lives
it gave give us a purpose to our lives
and we said why did God put myself and
my family in this business I could have
been a you know and a lawyer I could
have been the realest things I could
have been in you know in a profession
that you know my friends are in why did
God put us in a family into a business
like this which is such a non you know
Jewish business sports and I realized
why because was he wanted us to make a
difference he wanted to give us a test
not everything is easy you know it's
great it you know if it's easy it's easy
you know if it's a little bit more
difficult and you get challenged they're
just like it's more difficult the reward
is more difficult and there's no
question that the success of our company
the reason that we're successful and
then we keep on getting renewed our
licenses and get more and more licenses
is because of the fact that people
understand that when really we are the
chosen people anybody that doesn't
realize that it has to stop realizing it
we all put on this world you know for a
reason and with a moral compass of this
world especially in a time like this you
know when this whole pandemic started I
get calls from all the commissioners and
sits on you know you're our religious
guy tell us how do you how do you read
this I said how do I read this every
this old you guys think that everything
is in your hands you think that you
control everything you send out this
technology today you can see how high a
guy jumps you know if he's gone is not
going to be good if adding this is all
types of virtual realities and all types
of technology I said here this a a micro
you can't even see it nobody could see
it and it literally stopped the whole
world on its crack so the message here
is guys we're we're we're not gonna
control as much as we think we're in
control we're not will control it's a
god that creates this world and the
greatest gift that God gave the Jewish
people was this habit
question about it I have so many friends
Jewish friends they can't commit to keep
to keep Shabbos I can't commit commit to
keep the whole Sabbath but their wives
like candles they sit down at least
Friday night with their families they
told me their whole lives that taken on
a different me it's changed their lives
the fact that that that there's some
purpose other than working seven days a
week is a purpose in their life it's
improved their marriages it's improved
their relationships with their children
it's improved their whole way of
thinking the day of rest the day of
bonding with your family bonding with
your Creator bonding with God has given
them a whole different meaning in life
so you know all of the all of the
rabbinic reasons and you have a no
shortage of of rabbis or I'm sure you
know tell you about the beauty of the
Shabbos and of course my on a personal
note the fact that once a week we tune
out you know we we really we really you
know rejuvenate ourselves spend time
with our families but in this crazy
business that I'm in and if anybody
would have thought that I would succeed
in this business by being closed not oh
not only Shabbat it falls holidays
though you know we close all the
holidays and and no matter what just
think you can come into the office you
can print the teacher you know on the
Shabbat you can't you have to be true
you have to be consistent so you know
again I could go on and on and on you
know with so many different stories that
happen to me over Shabbat we had a we
had one one crazy story that that's just
unbelievable we have we have somebody
who were walking through the hotel on
Shabbat and we're all your address that
this you may have heard this story this
is the craziest story I was at Miami for
the first Super Bowl and Shabbos morning
I take my I'm going out to synagogue so
I take my my college with me I have my
prayer book and my fresh oil under my
arm and I walk out of my room and some
big guy next to me says rabbi you know
happy Sabbath I said I said happy
Sabbath you too he says to me you know I
heard about you Saul and and and
was waiting by the door for you to come
out and I was waiting here to come out
and I'd like you to give me a blessing
I said why shouldn't give you a blessing
he says casaba tis a holy day and you
observe this habit and I need a blessing
I've lost my job
I'm between jobs some of you heard the
story and he says I'm a he was a very
famous quarterback and he says give me a
blessing on the holy day of Sabbath that
I'm gonna get a job quickly put me on
the spot so I take his hand I shake his
hand I said in the spirit of all these
habits God's gonna I do some
heebie-jeebie and I give him some some
blessing okay so that was it that was
the end of the story about four months
later my secretary tells me somebody so
and so and so and so was on the phone
again a very famous I pick up the phone
he says Saul you're the best he says you
can't imagine just like I don't know a
57 million dollar contract them and the
power of prayer and being observant and
and keeping the Sabbath has got me the
best job I ever got I said you know
really happy for you and everything's
great all right forget about it next
year I come to Super Bowl my secretary
tells me somebody from the NFL Players
Association called off and asked what
hotel are you staying at Super Bowl so I
don't know she said you don't mind I
told them no figure sometimes they send
the gifts to the room play they send me
some gift baskets with some song jerseys
or whatever it is all right Manik lock
in the morning I go downstairs I can't
believe it there's like 20 guys waiting
to see me and they said rabbi we were
told of blessings that you give on the
Sabbath are the best blessings and we
want and they lined up 20 NFL players to
get a blessing on the Sabbath because of
the power of getting a blessing on the
side you can't make this stuff up I mean
it's really it's really it's great and
so so my message is again it's not a
rabbinic message it's a practical
message it's a message coming from
somebody that's in business as a
business person don't think for one
second that for every sacrifice you make
the keeping the Sabbath keeping Shabbat
okay God reward you double triple
quadruple
for every time you do something in order
to sanctify this Abbot decided to find
God's name in keeping his holy day I'm
the perfect example that a testament
there as difficult as it is that's how
much you get rewarded back for it
besides the personal reward of
tranquility of calmness in your life of
having one day a week to sit and reflect
and do whatever you want to do whether
it's read or study the Torah do anything
spend time with your family spend time
energy with your children but besides
all of that in a practical way don't
think for one second and it's gonna hurt
anything that you want to accomplish
because you're closing down one day
keeping Shabbat praying reflecting and
doing all the beautiful things that
Shabbos brings along with it so that's
really my message if anybody ever has
any questions or wants to talk I'm sure
they'll they'll they'll they'll send
around Josh you can send around my my
email address I'm happy to talk to you
if I have the time or to email you if
you have any questions or or ever gonna
be in an event that you'd like to spend
a Shabbat with me and with myself and my
family so I wish you all the greatest of
success and whatever you do I'm hoping
that my words had some meaning are gonna
move you in some way and bring you
closer to what I think is the greatest
gift that God gave the Jewish people is
that is the Holy Center thank you very
much enjoy this Shabbos and I look
forward to one day meeting some of you
in person Wow thank you so much those
beautiful beautiful words really
inspiring really amazing to hear
firsthand what it looks like to try and
keep Shabbat so thank you for joining us
and sharing your time your wisdom and
your stories okay so what we're gonna be
doing every week is going through some
of the halacha
some of the technical details of how to
keep Shabbat now if you don't know them
they seem very confusing but if you take
a few minutes to learn them they're
really doable it's really not as
daunting as it seems which is why we're
going to take a few minutes to go
through it
and you know for the past many weeks
we've been talking so much about the
feeling of Shabbat making sure about
meaningful and and the truth really is
that you cannot fully tap into it unless
you do it correctly so it's really
important to learn how to do it
correctly so we're going to have Rabbi
Shmuel ewolf from partners Detroit share
with us each week a few minutes about
the technical laws of Shabbat take it
away
hey guys okay so as Rabbi avi said we're
going to just discuss a few different
details each week so just to give you a
little background first there are widely
it's widely known that there are 39
different types of Melaka which people
translate as work that we're not
supposed to do on Shabbat and work is
really a pretty faulty translation of
the word it's not about work you look
technically into the into the subject at
all you know you find that you're
allowed a bench press you know you could
bench 200 pounds on Shabbat without
violating any biblical prohibitions but
simply flicking on a light switch could
potentially be a prohibition so you know
we see clearly work is not a good
translation exerting energy is not what
the 39 different types of categories
that we don't do on Shabbat it's not
about work so the translation that I
like to use is creativity we're not
allowed to create on Shabbat and the
idea of that is is that God says I
created for six days and I rested on
Shabbat I want you to do the same but
there's a lot more depth to it than just
that the idea is that when it comes to
us working the whole week you're hard at
work you're busy creating things you're
working on whatever you're working on
because you're so zoned in on creating
what you're dealing with
as a result of that you're totally
focused on one thing which is great it's
good to be 100% focused not all over the
place but the downside to that is you're
not able to focus on the world around
you and be able to appreciate what we
have and all the blessings we have on a
daily basis so God says on Shabbat take
a break from your creativity stop
creating stop zoning into one specific
thing and sit back and actually enjoy
everything you created and more
specifically everything I created your
family nature and everything in the
world all the beauty that we never stop
to appreciate because we're so busy
running from place to place
God says stop creating stop
focusing on one specific thing let's
have a broaden our horizons appreciate
what we actually have because as much as
you have all the blessings in the world
if you don't actually appreciate it
you're not truly wealthy so just take a
step back to appreciate so we're gonna
start off with cooking cooking is one of
the 39 types of creativity on Chavez
then we're not supposed to do so cooking
is basically the idea of taking
something from one form whether it was
edible in its raw state or not and
you're now cooking it and making a
different state I mean that wasn't
edible you're making edible if it was
your change changing the flavor cooking
is an issue of creating changing the
form of an object but when it comes to
reheating if you take something that's
already cooked clearly you can see a
difference between chicken that was raw
and you cook it and chicken that was
cooked already that is cold and now you
want to reheat it so on Shabbat
biblically you are not allowed to cook
but you are allowed to reheat however
the rabbis came and instituted certain
precautions that we have to take in
order to make sure we don't come to cook
we don't come to turn on a fire which is
another type of creating on Shabbat and
as a result there are certain
precautions that we'll get into in the
in the coming weeks but just to touch
the iceberg of it you know just to
mention the idea is cooking has to do
with creating we're not allowed to take
something raw and cook it however
something cold and reheat it that was
previously cooked would be okay with
certain precautions now the way just to
mention one specific idea when it comes
to liquids let's say you take a chicken
soup or coffee that was that was a hot
coffee that was cooled off or even
boiling water that is now cool am I
allowed to go and reheat those things
provided I have those precautions that
we're gonna talk about in the coming
weeks the answer is that this is a big
debate between the Smarty authorities
and the Ashkenazi Jewish authorities as
the debate is is a liquid in its cold
state is it considered still cooked just
cold or do we say the whole essence of a
liquid is determined based on the
temperature if you have hot tea or cold
tea a cold coffee and iced coffee or a
hot coffee there are two totally
different Anthony's when it comes to
chicken whether it's hot or cold it's
still just cooked chicken but when it
comes to a liquid there's a big
difference between if it's actually
hotter
Cole so the Ashkenazi authorities hold
that no matter what there is no instance
where you could take your chicken soup
out of the refrigerator and put it on
the stovetop on Shabbat even with all
the precautions because that would be
cooking
however the Smarty authorities hold that
it would be okay and this applies to
things like a very liquidy sauce on a
chicken anything that has a lot of
liquid in it there would be no way on
Shabbat for us to be able to go and
create by heating that up on Shabbat
however solid foods we would be able to
and and those that are Sparty would even
be able to to do liquids however the
exact precautions we will deal with in
the coming weeks how how you could
reheat something on Shabbos whether it's
a salad or for Sparty's even liquid and
also talked about the concept of leaving
something on from before Shabbat even
though it was raw there are certain
times that that would be okay as well so
just to recap there are 39 types of
creativity that we're not allowed to do
on Shabbat because we're trying to zone
out and be able to appreciate all our
creations and all God's creations and
not take it for granted and appreciated
over Shabbat is one of those types of
creativity that is not supposed to be
done in Shabbat reheating would be okay
with certain precautions that we will
get into the following all right thank
you
Thank You rabbi wolf for that beautiful
concise and clear okay the next part of
our program one of the fun parts we're
all looking forward to the cooking demo
now it's always fun to learn how to make
good food I see Rose is busy making
something looks like challah it's always
nice to learn how to make a food I think
we all miss our great foods we have at
the rabbi's house and now we're actually
getting a chance to learn how to make it
specifically chicken soup we have with
us rabbi Shalom Garfinkel from Chicago
he runs he's a great teacher there runs
great programs there that's what I do
know about him when I was surprised to
know is that he apparently makes a
wonderful chicken soup as well so let's
hear his secrets all right yeah okay
Chicago welcome to the amazing kitchen
over here not so big
small but mighty I want everyone to know
doesn't matter how much space you have
as long as you have a stovetop and a
sink a little counter space you'll be
good to go so if you're in a teeny tiny
apartment a wipey young professional
downtown where ever you may be
you can do this the other thing I think
is very important to know is I did see
that my mom is on the line she's my
biggest fan my mother can attest that
growing up I made two things one was
cereal okay it's really good with the
box of milk it's great okay so even if
you never could okay so now I think
there's something you know really
important just about what it means you
keep kosher this whole world is about
physicality and spirituality and people
you look at the cookie shows it's all
about physicality what food and what
spice I'll let you know if there's
anything that talks about the Jewish
soul of cooking that you feel like the
spirituality of food coming out it's a
good chicken soup that maybe Hollow okay
maybe we'll do that differently but the
chicken soup it's something it's just
totally incredible and and this is why
it's so important and now we're gonna
start right now of how do you start
making a chicken soup okay so the reason
I specifically used frozen chicken
obviously kosher okay many of you may be
in cities where you can't get fresh
chicken that's totally okay that's still
okay because frozen chicken in a chicken
soup after you cook it tastes exactly
the same now very very important I don't
know if any of you know what these
things are okay chicken sag okay there's
something called CFS anyone know what
CFS is okay it's a very terrible thing
you're sitting down at a Shabbos table
the chicken soup you're looking really
good and all the sudden you scoop up
your spoon you're bouncing and you see
floating chicken fat in your soup it's
right chicken fat okay so since we are
anti CFS people you get these things
I'll show you here we can send out
exactly I'm sure there many different
brands this is the Jewish brand Lieber's
sack and boil okay very important net so
we start my friend here taking my buddy
over here we're gonna start we pack this
baby in with the chicken let's get on it
yeah all let's do it
okay here we go we're gonna pack this in
okay I would say the key to a really
good tasting chicken soup is lots of
real chicken some people use the powder
you know or they use chicken bones okay
that's a big mistake if you put right
just bones but if you actually use
actual to you know look how much chicken
is it's an entire eight piece cut up now
I usually make for a lot of people so
even if you don't have an entire chicken
I'm telling you you can make a smaller
chicken but the more chicken you
actually use the better okay so we got
this dye in the so we're gonna fill up
the water just till about the level of
the chicken all right we'll just keep
going back and I'll tell you the
procedure so we fill up the water into
the chicken and then we're gonna boil it
if you have your super high-powered
boiler use that one
you're gonna boil it as as fast as you
can as high as you can and then here
comes the secret skimmer
you're gonna skim up all the fat that
floats the top now I know it gets a
little scary thing floating fat you
shall survive okay perfect scoop in fact
some of my children actually they
compete who can like oh can i skin can i
skin anyway big fun maybe a future
professional sport maybe we could have
juice and mr. worker could come and make
chicken fat
Lee okay anyway all right so here we go
so anyway so we are going to how long
does it take I would say probably about
20 minutes to a half an hour watch it
and you'll see especially depends if
it's frozen hot and you skim me okay so
it's about right okay we're gonna take
it and we're gonna turn it on high so
we're on the power boil okay 20-ish
minutes it's gonna start foaming and you
foam at that point we start with all of
the amazing vegetables now sweetie here
comes is my son sweetie he's gonna show
you what we put in this guy okay
hey parsnip okay peel a turn it we sent
out the list we can send it again um
again okay okay and now here's some
amazing other substitutes what are you
gonna show them okay home the show
that's ginger see the garlic cloves
beautiful okay and then the unbelievable
I wish you could smell this a little bit
smell a little bit of ginger goes a long
way in the soup and it's unbelievable
again we can write all this down and
don't be intimidated if you can't get
all the ingredients in you're rushing
you're busy I'm professional even
without all the greens it's still gonna
taste great okay
carrots okay zucchini salary what's your
favorite part of the chicken soup
chicken and the celery okay and the
integers ended than the actual soup
itself okay so again boil on high points
ready you pour all the vegetables okay
and then the seasoning here are here is
the keys kosher salt now many granulated
regular salt say kosher on there's a
specific kosher salt it's the thicker
type let's just show people the
difference if you don't know what this
is you should it's great for cooking
it's thicker okay and this is a really
flavorful this makes
huge difference much more than okay so
how much salt to put in well let's just
go really quickly here the the
ingredients that I like to put in my
chicken soup okay kosher salt I would
say pens up big your pot is for a pot
this size I would put three tablespoons
probably you'll make a smaller chicken
soup so I would say probably about two
tablespoons of so you'll taste it from
week to week and pepper just a little
bit to taste you guys know how strong
pepper is but it really is very good for
chicken soup okay this is optional some
people already there's enough garlic
from the garbage garlic cloves I like to
put in a little extra garlic granulated
garlic garlic powder that's option now
if you want to know the secret secret
spice okay sweetie you hold this up for
everyone okay right here so they can see
the letters here fold it like that
round time this is the most unbelievable
thing in the chicken soup and I think if
I can compare this is the secret spice
ground thyme unbelievable okay now I'm
probably running out of time so here's
what we do at our house but I want to
make this very practical for you guys
because I want you to be able to do it
in your young professional lives and
downtown wherever okay so what we do is
after we boil it we skin with that then
we put all the vegetables in and the
spices again in terms of how much of the
spices a couple tablespoons of salt a
little bit of pepper a little bit of
green in the garlic and then this you'll
just see it I'll cover just a few shakes
and it'll be good at that point I'll
tell you what we I'd then take it off
the high flame I put it in the back okay
on the lower flame stir this off and I
let it go I started Thursday night and I
leave it on low all night much like a
chili that you would keep it on low all
night by the time Friday yeah the whole
house and then we literally we wait for
shops and before shops then we'll turn
on again so again Friday morning is
Friday mid-morning we'll turn it off and
then right before it's an hour before
stop we'll turn it on again and I'm
telling you the chicken flavor seeps
into the soup it's fun believable and
it's absolutely incredible okay so now
it's late I can't don't worry the same
process here and boil it on high and
then just keep it on high for for you
know an hour to watch it and it'll be
good to go so you can try the thirst
back to Friday thing if your again keep
it on very low if you do that but if not
you can still do it a couple hours
before Shabbat all right we didn't do
