Zomick's: Zomick's Bakery Celebrates 50 Years of Existence

Kosher and Holiday Traditions

Eating is an important part of every culture. Every cuisine is influenced by local conditions, intercultural developments, historical circumstances, religious traditions, and customs. The New York based Zomick's Bakery is one of the oldest kosher bakeries in NY, established back in 1966. This bake shop has consistently served the public, for over 50 years, with the highest quality baked goods, such as Zomick's Bread and other products prepared like the traditional Challah Bread. All of their products have the highest standards of kashruth. Kashrut is the body of Jewish law dealing with foods that can and can’t be eaten, as well as methods for food preparation. The word has its origins form the Hebrew root Kaf-Shin-Reish, which means fit, proper or correct. It is the same root as the word kosher, which actually describes the food that meets these standards. The word kosher is often used, to describe ritual objects that are made according to the Jewish law.



Every year, there are plenty of new and exciting food products for the holiday season, when large and small manufacturers try to improve upon their holiday's food selection. The kosher bakery has a variety of new options for this year's holiday season, which can be found in their Cedarhurst, New York bake shop.
Throughout the year, Jewish holidays are wonderful times for gathering with family and friends. The holidays are a great opportunity for all of us to pause our busy lives, refocus and reconnect with family and friends, and simply enjoy a meal with our dear ones.

We all know that there was a time when the woman did all family's preparation in her own kitchen. But in the past few decades there has been a revolution in American eating, and now almost 90 percent of the food is processed before reaching our kitchens. Among this year's specialty from Zomick's kitchen, we are going to give knish and bagel, the center spot.

A knish is a type of potato and flour dumpling stuffed with several kosher products. Zomick's kosher bakery offers the most delicious knish you are ever going to try. It is baked to perfection, until it gets a brow- gold color and a little crisp on the outside. Usually it is filled with mashed potato and onion, chopped liver, kasha or cheese, but that doesn't always have to be the case. Knishes make an excellent snack, an appetizer or a side dish. If you still haven't tried one, you should definitely visit Zomick's bakery. 

And is there a person in the world that doesn't know what a bagel is? This donut-shaped piece of bread is boiled before it is baked. Often they are topped with poppy seeds or sesame seeds, or flavored with other ingredients. The bagel has been a part of Jewish cuisine for a very long time, at least 400 years. In Zomick's kosher bakery, bagels are traditionally served with cream cheese and some fish spread. Zomick's bagels are soft, warm and spongy inside, and slightly crispy on the outside.
