 | Limited Counter space |
|
Do you need seperate counter space for food prep. Like one for meat, one dairy, and one parave. We're BalTushuvah and I can only go by what I remember my mother doing. It seemed she had different places for each catagory of food. Am I wrong.? I have an old farm kitchen with only one counter. Is there any way to divide the counter? I thought of placing seperators on the counter like they use in the supermarket to seperate your groceries. |

| Having separate counter space is not actually required in your home. When you prepare dairy, you won't place the food directly on the countertop. If you have a hot pot, it is best to put it down on a trivet. And the same for meat. Of course, having a separate space for each would be very helpful. |

| I have solved this problem by buying 2 very large glass "cutting boards" -- usually in the baking aisle of the department stores near me. Maybe they are not sold as cutting boards -- counter top protector? About 18" x 24" I think. Since we did not replace our countertops (no money), I put down the fleish one when I am preparing meat, dairy when I am preparing dairy. |
