Koshering Service
Rabbi Zalman Tiechtel will assess your current living quarters to determine the best route to ensure that the kitchen is Koshered according to Jewish law. In addition to the actual koshering of the kitchen sink, counters, stove and other appliances, the Rabbi will work with you do ensure that the kitchen will remain kosher throughout the entire school year.
