NHS QUICK GUIDE TO ACCEPTABLE KOSHER FOODS
In order to maintain the kashrut of our synagogue
kitchen and dining facilities, it is necessary that only those who have
completed
the rabbi's Kashrut Course work alone or supervise others in preparing
and serving food at the synagogue.
People planning synagogue events must include a trained synagogue mashgiah in their committees.
This document
covers only a small part of the information in the NHS Kashrut Manual.
It is intended to help congregants who may wish to bring food into the
synagogue for congregational events.
