The Times Explains Pesach? Riiiiiight
Orthodox Judaism is sorta hard to understand and even harder to explain, which is perhaps the kindest conclusion I can draw from this article. Printing kosher for Pesach recipes in the Times seems like a really good idea. Trying to explain what makes something kosher for Pesach in 2 pages--really bad idea. I'm frum and the article confused me!
(But on the second page, there's a picture of Brach's: shout-out to my neighborhood!)

Jon Nathan is now an idiot in my mind. Why would she think that baking soda and baking powder would be problematic in the first place??
Also, I don't think she did a good enough job of explaining the Sepharic tradition. She seemed to say it was more an Israeli/Conservative thing...there are many "ultra orthodox sephardim" who would eat rice on Pesach-but I think you wouldn't think that after reading the article.
Bottomline-bad article.
And did you see the video piece about the new Lubavitvh shul in Soho....ya...
