okay welcome to today we are learning about Pesa especially how to prepare for Pesa by cleaning the house from chametz what is Hamed switch places you have to clean how do you culture dishes which food is kosher for peso especially rice how to conduct the Seder which matzo is the best which wine is the best and Adam it's worth of Pesa so we'll start with the first question that many people ask and that is which rice can you buy for peso and if you open your folders that is going to be the first page in your folder for Sephardic Jews which rice is kosher so the the only criteria that we have for kosher ID surpasses that it should be unenriched no vitamins added after it was processed and certain brands we know that they are not enriched like kakuka rice both yellow and red other brands that are not listed if the package doesn't say whether it's enriched or not one way to check is to look at the ingredients in if it in ingredients just says rice polished rice and no other ingredients that's a sign that it was not enriched or you look at the nutrition panel and if you see that when it lists the vitamins vitamin A is zero vitamin C is zero iron is zero then you know they didn't add anything because if they added then you would see that certain vitamins and certain are listed white rice we have to check before Pesa only once unlike in the previous years where we had to check it three times now since we see that white rice usually screen doesn't contain any other grains one time careful checking by an adult whether it's a man or woman over but a bar mitzva is enough however if you deal with other grains or brown rice then it needs three times checking for example brown rice since it's similar in color to wheat grains you have to be more careful in checking and you need to check three times also if you using any are kind of legumes kidney odd you have to check three times for example if you want to use buckwheat you must check at least three times and not recommended to use buckwheat because we've found that you would have to check at least five six times until you stop seeing grains because it's so mixed with other things that and especially its color brown it's very difficult to check so it's not recommended but things like quinoa for example it's small it's white and it's similar to white rice and it's very easy to check that one you have to check three times but it's much easier because it's white or for example millet is not humus and therefore whether you want to eat millet check it three times or if you want to feed your birds millet that is kosher and for birds you don't have to check three times it's best to check rise before Pesa however if you didn't you can check it on Pesa and even on Yom Tov you can check rice however if it is on Yom Tov you can only check what you're planning to use for that Ianto and if you happen find grain in your rice or in your kidney odd then you have to dispose of it you have to flush it down the toilet or burn it or throw it in a public dumpster now the next page in your folder is delegation of power of attorney after we check for hummus and we clean our house we are allowed to sell whatever hamed's we don't want to get rid of ideally a person should get rid of his hummus but if it's a large quantity or for some reason they cannot dispose of it they are allowed to sell it and in order to sell it you have to empower a rabbi to sell your hummus on your behalf to a non Jew so you fill out this form and you list which areas the Commons is in you sign a dated and you either email it fax it or drop it off by the debate in which is listed on the other side make sure you do it before the BD kadha midnight but the card commits is Thursday April 18th make sure you do it before then because they have a cut-off limit by which time they stop accepting these forms ok next you see in your folder important times for Pesa which includes the time for Billy cut chametz which is in New York around 750 2:00 p.m. on the night of Thursday April 18th and the following morning Friday April 19th we have to eat breakfast early ideally according to rabbi yitzhak Israeli you should eat it by 946 which is half an hour earlier than the time listed here this is the time that appears and calendars which is for Magee annavaram 1016 and for Gras 10:40 this is the 4th hour the day by which time you have to stop eating comments and then you have one more hour to destroy your habits and that is after you finish the breakfast you collect all the last pieces and bits of comets and you bring it to the burning site and you burn it together with all other people and after burning you say a special prayer this should be done according to Rabbi Itzhak Israeli by 11:03 a.m. which is about half hour earlier than the time listed here which is taken from the regular calendar and if you missed by 1103 you can use the later times that are listed here and this page also lists times for candle lighting both for Friday which is the regular candle lighting before Shakya and for multi Shabbat because the second say there is after Shabbat over there you have to wait until Shabbat is over whatever you hold whether it's eight forty one for those who hold earlier or a contraband Atem 8:59 that is the earliest time you can light candles and also for most a Shabbat you have to make half dollar in in your kaduche so you have to prepare candle preferably two candles so that you can put them together for half dollar if you don't have two candles you can use one and in the middle of your kaduche you say the blessing Boromir a high ash and you say the blessing for half dollar and you end it with ham of deal being Kaddish the Kaddish and make sure you don't put out the candle for half dollar after you finish your kaduche unlike regular monisha about when we put out the candle with wine since it's Yom Tov we're not allowed to put out the fire so all you can do is just put it somewhere that and let it burn out by itself and therefore it is recommended to use small candles like they sell for Hanukkah candles the very thin ones that burn only half an hour if a person doesn't have those candles cannot use two candles he's allowed to use one candle for this half dollar also this page describes the procedure for Wendy cut hummus okay the next page you see in your folder is the Sephardic matzah measurement guide and on the other side is the Marauder measuring guide so we eat three things that need to be measured on Pesa we eat matzah we eat more and we drink four cups of wine so for for for matzah you need to eat a key site and we're gonna learn what occurs IDs for Mourad you also need to eat a COS ID and four cups of wine you need to have a ravit and what is revealed we're gonna speak about so first with matzah we eat matzah three times during the Seder one for Hamas illaha Menards in the blessing Allah halat matzah second bike Oregon with the sandwich and third at the end of the set or when we eat afikoman each one needs a cos I the person who is leading the Seder and he's gonna eat from the afikomen from the mat so that you actually made blessing for its proper for him to eat to kiss a team one from the master that he said Pamela Hamlett I mean Herod and one on the master that you said Allah heal at Mozza which means one from the top matzah and one cos I'd from the middle matzah but that's only for the person who is leading the Seder if he's gonna eat from those mud salt everyone else at the Seder is enough to eat only one his ID so how much is a cos ID so there are various measurements the most strict is 28 grams and that is one ounce weight however the more lenient one and delicate Gila we are allowed to use that one is 20 grams per person and for even more lenient which is also permissible for Safari you can use 15 grams it's not listed over here but according to Rabbi it's a Israeli and according to Rabbi alien Haim you're allowed to use 15 grams for cos I'd for each one of these now how do you find what is 15 grams so you either get a food scale or post-office scale and you pre measure everything and you put the matzo into ziplock bags enough for every person in the house times 3 because each person needs three times to eat matzah or if you don't have a scale and you cannot get one you just estimate by either taking half of machine matzah that is a cos I'd for safar than half of machine matzah so eat half of machine lots of three times during the Seder or take a third of round matzah that's an average thickness around Massa hand matzah if you're much salt happened to be extra thin then you should eat half of a hand matzah so a regular person would either eat three halves of machine mats that during the Seder or a regular person would eat three thirds of hand mats which would end up an entire hand matzo per person but it is highly recommended to get a scale this way you will know exactly that you're eating the right amount and you're not going to overeat and an important benefit by to have a scale measure everything before Pesa is it's gonna save you a lot of time because when you set up place for people you can already put by their plate three bags of matzah and you can do the same with mer or you measure an ounce of mer or one ounce of mer or which is romaine lettuce and again put it in into two bags because one we need for my roll and one for Cora and as you go through Hagaddah each person will open the right bag and eat it you don't have to distribute it you don't have to cut it you don't have to measure it and estimated it takes time and then you worry that maybe I didn't eat enough and then you eat extra so it is highly recommended to get a scale and pre-measure all your matzo and all your mud or romaine lettuce now we go to romaine lettuce there are two ways to measure romaine lettuce either you use the scale as we said and you measure one ounce or you use this guide and everything that is enclosed by the box the green box that is how much space what is the area of one ounce of leaves leaves are the thin green part of romaine lettuce the stalks are heavier but if you are using just the leaves and you're able to spread it on this sheet and it's going to occupy this area then you know that you're eating at least a side of Marone and again you need to eat two of these one for the actual model and one for the sandwich if you don't have the scale and you lost this paper and you forgot what the area is one way to estimate it is to use three medium leaves if you use three medium romaine lettuce leaves they approximately cover this area and they are approximately weigh one ounce now what about the four cups of wine when we drink the four cups of wine number one we need to make sure that the cup we're using can contain at least the amount of ravit how much is revealed and that is three ounces or 86 milliliters how much should you drink you need to drink majority of your cup so if you use the minimum cup of of three ounces you have to drink a little more than one and a half ounces or approximately two ounces each time except for the last time when you drink your fourth cup you should drink the entire cup or at least three ounces because after the fourth cup we say the blessing I'll a given valley a given and in order to say that blessing you need to drink at least 3 ounces of grape juice or wine so it's recommended to find a cup of 3 ounces or a little bit bigger not much bigger than 3 ounces because if you get a large cup you need to fill up the cup the cup doesn't need to spill but it should be filled almost till the top and then you have to drink majority of that cup so for example if you have a cup of 5 ounces then you have to drink 2 and a half 3 ounces of that if your cup is only 3 ounces then you only need to drink 1 and a half to 2 ounces so for people who cannot tolerate wine or the sugar in the grape juice it's important to get the smallest cup possible and that is 3 ounces what kind of wine should we drink and there are 4 ideal qualifications for wine for the Pesach Seder and that is wine should be red if possible not white wine should be alcoholic not grape juice number 3 it should be not Mevo shall not pass your eye if possible and number four no sugar should be added it can have natural sugar it can be sweet but no sugar should be artificially added now this is ideal but if somebody doesn't have red wine he's allowed to use white wine if somebody cannot tolerate alcohol he's allowed to use grape juice if somebody cannot use unpasteurized wine because maybe he has non-jewish help in the house and they cannot see uncovered wine or because they have Jews at their Seder who are not Shabbat observers so then you should use pasteurized wine VI in liver shop and if for some reason a person cannot find wine where sugar was not added he's allowed to use wine with sugar added ideally we try to do it the best way but if not possible all the other ways are permissible now on the second page of this collection you have a brief summary of the seder plate which items you have to put on it the the lattice the the carpus vegetable which could be either salary or radish an egg roasted bowl haroset mixture of nuts and dates or nuts and raisins some put apples matzo and salt water then it describes the main it's part of the set and on the third page we have a brief description of every step of the Seder Kadesh or hot now a good advice is that since when people come to the said there they're often hungry many people come from work and they're really starving and they don't have patience to sit and wait to eat we eat during the Seder an egg a hard-boiled egg in memory of Beit HaMikdash because with the time of Beit HaMikdash we used to bring two offerings one the Corbin Pesa the passive offering and one was called hagigah offering festival offering instead of passive offering we eat a few common we eat the last piece of matzah at the end of the Seder this way we remember that the pastor offering was eaten on a almost full stomach at the end of the meal so that the taste of the korban Pesach would stay with you through the night that is why when we have a comment we cannot eat anything after that and we cannot drink anything except for water or the cups of wine that I required what do we eat instead of hagigah for that we eat a hard-boiled egg now when do we eat it some people eat it right before a few comments some people either sometime at the beginning of the Seder when we finish Haggadah but it's recommended to eat this hard-boiled egg at the very beginning and that is when we finish kaduche before washing our hands after you finish kaduche everybody drank wine leaning on their side you distribute the hard-boiled eggs you say AHA called me abattoir o on the egg and you eat the egg in commemoration of destruction of the Potomac - and commemoration of the hagigah offerings that we brought when we had botanic - this way you give people some food and they satisfy the hunger and they have patience to continue eating so you can give them one egg if they want you can give them two eggs and after they finish their eggs they can they should say Boren if a short blessing the after blessing and afterwards you go wash all huts you wash hands without the blessing you you take a small piece of car pass this piece should be less than a COS ID so that you don't have to say after blessing you say but I pray Adama you dip it into salt water and you eat it this you don't have to eat leading because it represents the tears of the Jewish people the salty tears then we take the middle marks and we split it and we start the Hagaddah the maggie'd portion of Hagaddah where we say we speak about the exodus the the McCord the plagues and the three main things of the Seder what are the three main things that if you didn't say you didn't fulfill yourself they are on one of the pages on the right side this is called Megiddo obligations of the holiday if somebody is limited on time as long as you say the contents of this page and you understand them you fulfill your mitzvot and they are to speak about what is Pesa offering why do we bring peso offering why do we eat matzah and why do it ma role if you need to say Haggadah for somebody who is sick or you have children and they are tired just say this or you have people at the Seder who are impatient say this make sure they hear the message and then you can let them eat so my kid if possible should be said in the language that you understand the Haggadah the entire Haggadah should be said or heard by everybody present both men and women and therefore if women have to go into the kitchen and they miss some of the Haggadah they should have their own Haggadah in the language they understand and then read it on their own they can be ahead they can be behind and then catch up later it's fine as long as they read the entire thing and if for some reason they cannot read the entire thing as long as they read the page that I showed you about peso Martin Maher or they will fulfill their obligation then we drink our second cup again leaning and you have to make sure that whenever you eat matzah whenever you drink wine and by correc by the sandwich you lean on your left side and you should lean not in air but you should you should either lean on the handle of your armchair or on the table or on your neighbor but you cannot lean or just in air just pretend that's not called leaning there are some communities where women don't lean not because it's not sneeze but because in those communities it's considered that a woman should not lean in front of her husband not not because it's nude for different reason but in our communities the custom is for women to lean as well as well as for children the only time when one would not be required to lean is a student in if he is in front of his Rebbe the Rebbe from which he learned majority of his wisdom out of Honor for the Rebbe it's not proper to be lying or half lying and therefore a student in front of his Rebbe would not but everyone else would and even in such a case if the Arabia would give him permission to lean he would still lean okay then after we finished the Haggadah and we finish the the maggot portion of it we drink the second cup and we don't say a blessing for it and we wash hands second time and this time with a blessing and then we make blessing for matzah we lean and and eat it one key side and as we said you should make pre-measure 20 grams or even 15 grams of matzah or if you didn't pre-measure it's half of machine matzah that is 15 grams or 1/3 of hand mansome that is a cos I'd okay and then we eat the Marauder we make a blessing you don't lean from a rod and then you make a sandwich matzo Mar or and you dip it into haroset the mixture of nuts and the dates or nuts and raisins or nuts and apples and after you eat the quarter for which you live you eat the main meal yes yes if somebody is allergic to nuts then you don't it just has to be a mixture that is thick and you that you mix it with wine preferably so if your son is allergic to nuts then just take dates raisins apples mix it with a little bit wine as long as it's thick mixture that reminds us of the mortar that we used for bricks in Egypt and make sure you finish yourself by hot salt which is the halacha midnight this year it's 12:55 a.m. and by that time you have to finish not only your dessert you should also finish off your comment which means plan that you should stop the meal by around 12:30 so that you can quickly the dessert and quickly take out a few common and eat afikoman if you cannot find out for common or your children don't wanna give it up you can use any math so far if your comment doesn't have to be the one that you hit and again after you eat a few comment you cannot eat anything and you can only drink that the last two cups of wine and afterwards you can only drink water and no other liquid so if you need to drink tea or coffee drink it during your meal it's you have to be careful not to overeat because after the entire meal you still have to eat another keziah t of matzah and you still have to drink 2 more cups of wine and afterwards we say be ricotta Mazzone with a cup of wine and at the end of the Ottoman we drink that cup of wine leaning on the left and then we say we finish the Hallel with halal agador and with hizmet called high mood estaba and afterwards we drink the fourth cup of wine and then the near it's a portion of the Seder comes where we ask Hashem to accept our Seder and our prayers instead of the Corbyn Pesa instead of our service in base immigrants because we don't have the beta me - so as Hashem to accept our said for which we sing songs and we say stories about the exodus now let's quickly go through pacer clean there are two areas in the house that we have to clean kitchen and everything else everywhere else we just do general cleaning which means we have to make sure there is no Hammad's greater than a COS ID and just like we said for matzo different opinions anywhere from 10 grams 12 grams 15 grams so you have to make sure you don't have any piece of hummus that is a volume of an olive which is about 10 grams of dry bread in the kitchen you have to be much more strict because you're dealing with food that potentially can get into your pacer food and that you might eat has a shell so everywhere else you're only concerned about large pieces of comets pieces of comments that will if you have them you will violate the commandment not to possess comments and you only violate it if you have an achy side or more which is for us for this purpose 10 grams however in the kitchen we have to make sure there is not even a crumb that the hummus is not stuck anywhere so we're going to go through different kitchen appliances and utensils and how to clean them number one make it easier for yourself and only clean things that you're actually going to use for Pesa anything that you're not planning to use for Pesach just close it and sell it everything that you're planning to sell you don't have to clean so decide which cabinets you need for your peso food and for your peso dishes empty them and clean them all the other closets that have your year long dishes and food just tape them right on it that it's sold and you don't have to clean them at all you don't have to clean your dishes that you're not gonna eat from from on Pesach just put it away and sell it and therefore you'll only have a few closets to clean your counter your appliances and your table so let's go through it ideally it's good to have all up utensils and pots and pans special for Pesa if a person can afford to buy them and if a person has space to store them however if a person cannot afford to buy them or he doesn't have space to store them then you need to culture your regular utensils so how do you do that we have two general methods of caution one is called haggle ah which is boiling in water and we have Lee Boone which is burning in fire so we don't do Lee Boone except for the oven if you have self-cleaning oven you set it for the self-cleaning cycle and after the four hours that our oven is kosher while it's going through the self-cleaning oven you can use the opportunity and put whatever else you need to kasha in it for example if you have stainless steel spoons forks ladles pots and pans grades you can put it all into the self-cleaning oven and it's going to come out kosher if your oven is not self-cleaning then you just wash it well with detergent and then set it for the highest temperature for one hour yes if your self-cleaning you don't have to wait one to 24 hours and you don't have to clean it because it burns everything however if you don't have self-cleaning you have to wait 24 hours and you have to wash it next microwave again don't use for 24 hours clean it well with soap place a glass cup or ball with water with a little bit of soap diluted in it and turn the microwave on as long as it takes for the entire microwave to be filled with steam afterwards remove the ball and wipe the microwave clean the glass tray inside the microwave only needs to be washed with soap stovetop how do you crush a stove top for Pesa there are three methods either if you have small grades you take a small piece of aluminum foil like this sheet of paper you put it directly on top of the grate you turn it on the highest for two minutes and then you turn off the fire and it's ready then you take this aluminum foil and you put it on the next grade however if you have large grades that cover the entire oven then you cannot do it because the aluminum foil and the heat underneath will only go certain area it's not going to spread the entire surface so then you have two options either take the grades put them into the self-cleaning oven when you self clean it or take them after cleaning them put them into your sink and pour boiling water on them in the same and that's it yes yeah so your grades cover the entire yes right because the foil will only produce enough heat to kasha the area above the fire but area that is further away will not be kasha but it's not hard just to put it in a sink and pour boiling water on it next is electric stovetop if you don't have gas you have electric stovetop all you have to do is to turn it to the maximum heat until it turns red hot and it's going to be kosher automatically the area on the stove between burners we consider not kosher and we don't put any food there one way to use it is to cover it with aluminum foil and then it's clean then you can put your pots and pans and if the food falls on it it's okay otherwise if it's uncovered and the food falls and you should not use that food platter electric warming tray for Shabbat you have to use it only in the covered way in a car covered with aluminum foil and even that after cleaning it with sponge and soap dishwasher you clean it well if it has any filter trap for for food you clean it requires you to pour boiling water on the counter if you have granite marble counters you can do that if you don't you afraid that the counter will rooo get ruined then you can cover the counter either with heavy aluminum foil or more advisable to use thick plastic next is hot water urn if the hot water urn is clean you were careful not to splash hummons food on it and not to put hummus on top over to warm up it's clean it never came into contact with Hamid from the outside even you can just wash it on the outside and you can use it for Pesa and it would also be advisable to wash the spout however if you ever put bread on top of your urn or if hot hummus spilled onto the side of the wall you should not use that urn for Pesa get a separate one alternatively if a person doesn't have hot water earn on Pesa you can just fill up a pot with water and keep it on a stove if it's shabad you would have to use a black covered flame if it's Yom Tov you don't need to black you can just keep a pot on fire for hot water now small utensils for metal utensils which are stainless steel cast iron or aluminum utensils that I used with hot food with water you can boil them in water how do you do that you fill up a large pot and it can be any pot as long as it wasn't used in the last 24 hours and it's clean it can be even your regular pot you fill it up with water and when it boils you drop your utensils in it and you keep them in it until the water boils again once it boils you can them out and put them into cold water what can be put in there as we said metal what about other your materials you can also boil wooden in utensils of course first you have to scrub them to make sure you remove all the food that stuck to it and what about plastic there is a an argument about plastic some authorities do not allow you to boil to kasha plastic some allowed if a person needs it's recommended not to kasha plastic because it's cheap and also when we see that plastic does absorb more than glass however if person does not have any other option he is allowed to boil plastic utensils the same is with enamel ideally we don't boil enamel we don't culture enano however a person has to he should boil it three times which means you put it into the boiling water you take it out and then you again you put it in and out and in and out three times both for plastic and the novel keep the item in the boiling water a little bit longer than metal because since they absorb more give them chance to expel all the non kosher food in it this should be done before Pesa if you're cutting all paths suck then there are extra precautions that you have to take so therefore it's advisable to kasha everything you need before Pesa what about glass are going to Safari glass does not absorb and therefore you don't have to boil it all you have to do is wash it with soap and then you can use it for Pesa and during the year you can use it both for meat and milk for example if you have glass cups you can use them for your dairy meal and you can you for your meat meal as long as you wash them in between porcelain china is something that we do not caution or utensils that are made from like mugs made from clay what about refrigerator since the refrigerator is always used with cold food for safar them it's enough just to wipe all the air all the surfaces with soap make sure it doesn't have any crumbs you wash everything with soap and it's good you don't have to cover the the shelves you don't have to cover the sides utensils that were only used with cold food they don't require cash ring you just wash them with soap for example kiddush cups that you use throughout the year you can just wash them with soap and use them for paisa what about your table the table you should wash with soap the surface and then use a tablecloth whether it's cloth or plastic table cover that's enough for Safari you should replace your toothbrushes you don't have to boil your dentures and any item that you may bring to the table needs to be clean if there are any books that you're planning to bring to the table on Pesa you have to clean them check them for hummus shake them out if you're not planning to bring those particular books to the table you don't have to clean them because it's unlikely that you're gonna find a large chunk of hummus inside the book and therefore as long as it doesn't come and touch contact with food it's not a problem don't worry about your bookshelves yes Ashkenazim are more strict they go through all the books but was fighting we don't have to clean the books however you do need to clean your pockets of your coats your jackets pants shirts especially children and their knapsacks and again if you're selling your hummus you can just put all knapsacks of your children into one room into one closet and sell the whole thing this way you don't have to bother cleaning the knapsack since they don't need them on peso anyway they don't go to school let's make it easier for yourself just like you clean your house you have to clean your workplace you have to clean your office you have to clean your cubicle or desk at work and you have to clean your car and just like you do batik on the night before Pesa for your house you also need to check your car that same night and if your office is close by you should travel to your office and do batik are there as well now let's go through some food and medicine so in your folders you have a few papers number one you have the paper from Jaso our it's a Sephardic list of Passover items non-food and food that are good for Pesach even if they don't have special husband for pizza look through it some things are for certain companies certain brands some things it doesn't matter then at the end on the last page you have a list of stores where you can buy commenced after Pesa that's at the end and somewhere towards the end you have a list of certain medicines that you can use by the way please make a note that if you need vitamins or supplements there's a company called freedom fr EE da and all their vitamins and supplements are kosher for Pesach for Safari so if you need any vitamin C vitamin this and that you can get Frieda and you can use it throughout paisa then you have this page that lists baby food nutritional supplements and some medicines coconut milk and soy milk and majority of infant formulas are okay for paisa but check this list if it's if it appears on this list it's permitted and finally you have this list on both sides of the page food items that do not require special certification for Passover on one side and on the other side non-food items that do not require Passover certification for example any aluminum foil any soap detergent candles charcoal any shampoo or conditioner most cosmetics any paper napkins paper towels plastic utensils containers plates all those are fine and it has many many more that if you see there it doesn't have to have hashgacha then in addition the general rule for medication for medicines is if it is a pill or a tablet which you swallow and it doesn't have taste you're allowed to take it on Pesa there are more stringent views but this is allowed for safari so all swallow pills and capsules are allowed for more medicines that do have taste you can either check in the Jaso our list it has some medicines there or check the the the our online crc list of medicines start a list of medicines or you list of medicines that list a lot of medicines that are commonly used and is going to tell you if it has hummus or if it has kidney owed for Hodgkin Azam they try not to eat kidney out first for them only commences the problem now one more point and that is the difference between Ashkenazim and Sephardim about kidney or Ashkenazim don't eat any kidney oat including rice and beans peas however safar them the general Halleck of a Sephardic is that you are allowed to eat kidney odd rice and everything else only five grains are forbidden the five grains that can become commence wheat spelled rye oats and barley barley everything else is not commenced however various communities took upon themselves stringencies whom rod of not eating various kidney owed some communities don't eat rice but they eat beans some communities eat rice but they don't eat beans some communities don't eat not rice not beans and some communities eat rice and beans I'm talking about Sephardic and so depending which community you came from that is the your custom however according to Rabbi to yourself and account rabbi itzhak Israeli and according to Rabbi any urban hyeme Buhari and Jews that came to Israel they should follow the general Sephardim in hog they can eat everything and the barns that came to America they should ideally do hot arid Nigeria which means you go in front of three people three men and you say until now I kept this mean hug and now I I realized that it it was not hahaha it was just a min hug and that we
