Nine Meals for the Nine Days

Top Kosher Dairy Recipes for Tishat HaYamim

By , About.com Guide

It is customary for Jews to refrain from eating meat during the Nine Days (Tishat HaYamim) leading up to the Ninth of Av (Tisha B'Av). Tisha B'Av - the ninth day of the Jewish calendar month of Av - is a day of mourning and fasting. On this day, Jews remember the destruction of The First Temple in 586 BCE, the destruction of The Second Temple in 70 CE, as well as other tragedies suffered by Jews in the past.

I hope these kosher dairy recipes will be helpful to you during this period of mourning.
