Do a Goggle search for kosher dietary laws and you will find them interesting. Cleanliness is most important. You will also find that if you buy a kosher turkey there will be no gizzards in the bird. Same reason. |

On an episode of "Take Home Chef", Chef Curtis picked up a nice Jewish girl at the store. As her family kept Kosher, they had to go to Kosher butcher. There, he found out his plan for leg of lamb wasn't going to work.

No, it could be made kosher, but it generally isn't because the labor cost would be too high. Kosher requires dissecting out the major blood vessels, which is easy to do on forequarters but much more difficult on hindquarters. |

It is certainly possible to remove it, together with the adjacent tissues and blood vessels - and some kosher butchers/slaughteres do it - but this requires additional work and time, as well as a waste of some meat, so many other kosher slaughteres just prefer not to deal with the added bother and costs and sell the back halves to non-kosher butchers.

But it is still NOT kosher and not used for that reason. 3. Because the sciatic nerve and certain parts of the fat must be removed in order to eat the meat of the hindquarters (this is a laborious job and takes special training), filet mignon, rump and sirloin steaks, leg of lamb, and London broil usually are not available in kosher form in North America, though they may be in other parts of the world. Meat That Is Not Allowed: Any animal which does not both chew its cud and have a split hoof, such as rabbit or hare, pig, horse, dog or cat. |

And they do not eat it because of Genesis 32: 32 Therefore the children of Israel eat not of the sinew which shrank, which is upon the hollow of the thigh, unto this day: because he touched the hollow of Jacob's thigh in the sinew that shrank. > > Victor --Bryan |
