Vegan Jewish Seder...

[thorfinn]

Eclectic, that's me. Some of you probably know that I went to The Emanuel School (a small, private, Reform Jewish school), for the last four years of highschool. I was one of a year level of about 30 students, about 3-4 of whom were non-Jews. Quite an interesting experience, really. Not too many non-Jews can lay claim to have a reasonable understanding of what Pesach (passover) is about, or Yom Kippur, or how the Hebrew Calendar works... Also, despite being determinedly not a vegetarian (I do agree with the ethical point "if you aren't willing to kill it, you shouldn't eat it", I just happen to be willing to kill it to eat it) , I have a rather startling number of vegetarian (of various kinds) of friends. I like having a wide and weird group of friends and acquaintances. Certainly it helps me understand posts like this one, about A Vegan Seder. I'm mostly making this post for mordwen, though, who I suspect will be quite interested in that post.

With the chicken soup... Try rice noodles instead? I think it's possible to get the right thickness of cylindrical "thin rice noodle", which should give the same effect, if broken up short. I frequently make a chicken soup, which is a weird chinese medicine soup thing. :) I sometimes boil up the rice noodles, drain them off, then pour the medicine soup on top... works great. Puts a rose in every cheek.
