Shabbat Prep|| Friday After Work Routine||How We Celebrate Shabbat|| Orthodox Jewish|| Sonya’s Prep

hi everyone and welcome back to sonya's prep today is friday i just walked through the door it is about 3 15 now and i wanted to take you along on a typical friday for me and my family how i get everything ready for shabbat my husband just left to the beach with all of my little ones which is great i don't have any little people under foot so it gives me a little bit of time to get things in order for shabbat the house is a little bit of let's say untidy so first i'm gonna

just do a quick tidy up before i get cooking because i can't cook when there's like a mess everywhere in the kitchen especially so i'll just take you along and show you how i get everything done i hope you guys enjoyed this video come and join me so as you see it's three o'clock and i just got home i asked my husband before he went to the beach to put some stuff up on the fire for me so he could get going so i have my osvo here and my ox tails in here and i'm

going to be making my sourdough so i have my pans over there heating up so let's get started if you follow me on instagram then you know that i've really gotten into making my own sourdough bread and now that i home i'm going to be taking it out of the refrigerator because it does have to ferment for about a few hours to a day to two days in the fridge before baking so i'm just gonna be taking it out and putting it on some parchment paper so that i could bake it in the oven i

started to put paper towels into my bannetons because i'm always having a difficult time taking out the dough from there you're gonna see that one of them one of the bannetons i left without paper towels and i'm going to be struggling a bit just to get the dough out and it's coming up right here i don't know why no matter how much flour i put it just does not come out and i have to go and dig it in dig it out i should say but it's all good it still has a beautiful shape to

it and we have been loving this sourdough i have had a few requests on making a video on how i make my sourdough bread but i feel like to do the video on how to make the sourdough bread i first have to put up a video on how i make my starter would you guys let me know in the comments down below do you want me to just make a video on how i make my sourdough bread or do you want the entire process from the very beginning so as you can tell you definitely don't

need to have a bannetons or a dutch oven i used a bowl and i'm even using this corning wear set that i have so it is possible to make sour dough without a banana and without a dutch oven now that my bread loaves are in the oven i'm gonna do a quick self-care i'm just gonna do a very quick seven minute workout and take a shower get myself ready and then get back in the kitchen and cooking up the rest of the stuff self-care is definitely very very important especially for us women who are juggling

so many different things i have recently found this channel here on youtube by lucy windham read i'll have a video of hers linked below it's only seven minutes and so doable it is done i did it and it was seven minutes and it was great now i'm gonna just head off into the shower get ready for shabbat and continue cooking i love this new routine that i started to implement i make sure that i get myself together before i actually start like really physically cooking in the kitchen it just gives me peace of mind and

i'm not anxious that i'm not ready and my guests are about to walk through the door or i'm about to be left with the kids my husband has to leave to go to shul. i just really really encourage everyone to just change up their schedule just a little bit to give yourself peace of mind and tranquility to greet the shabbos how good do these look there's just nothing more satisfying than seeing that ear on your sourdough bread as you can see i am very excited it took me a very long time to perfect the dough

to get that rise over there so i'm just so super pleased with myself that i was able to accomplish it i'm just gonna spend a few short minutes just tidying up the space in the kitchen so that i could actually think and get a few things done so i'll be placing away those dutch ovens and putting away all the garbage i'm also going to be taking things out of the fridge that i have prepped the night before so on thursday i do most of my preps and then on friday when i get back from work

i place things into the oven if you haven't seen my full routine of how i get everything ready as a working mom i will have a link for you in the description box below of a video that i have filmed recently and i hope you guys enjoy it to see just the full routine of how i get everything done this is ospio z which is stuffed onions that i'll be baking in the oven i made this on thursday and i'm just topping it off with some dried up plums apricots and some sour cherries you don't

have to add those but i thought that it would give a very nice balance to the acidity in the tomato sauce and let me tell you it was super delicious the full recipe video link will be in the description box as well the dishes never end but i do try to utilize my dishwasher as much as i can so a few hours before shabbat starts i do fill it up to the brim and turn it on so that i have a nice clean dishwasher when shabbat comes in this is osavo this is a stew that

we basically eat on saturday for lunch and now that it's ready i'm just covering it up and forgetting about it until shabbat comes in i just place it onto the stovetop onto my hot plate and it's ready for us for lunch i'm gonna be finishing up my oxtail meal over here i'm just peeling some potatoes and giving it a rough chop placing it into the pot and letting it cook for an additional hour until it's fully ready and sticky and delicious halfway through the cooking time of the sirkanis which is a rice and chickpea dish

i take it out of the oven and give it a very good mix and place it back inside to fully cook through the oxtail meal is now done it's nice and sticky and the meat is just falling off the bone i placed that into a dish so i could easily heat it up on the hot plate once shabbat comes in now it's time to make all of the salads my method of making salads is by chopping every single thing up first and then dressing all the salads at once at the end it just i feel

saves me some time i don't have to keep taking out the avocado oil or the salt is just all out in one shot and i dress them all and put them all away all of these recipes i do already have on my channel and i have a whole entire playlist of shabbat salads that you can feel free to check out at the very end of cooking the oshpiozi the stuffed onions i do like to take off the cover and let it caramelize in the oven for about 30 minutes so while i'm in the kitchen cooking

my oldest daughter is setting up the table my oldest son has other shabbos chores that he's responsible for that he is doing as well the circa nice gets finished off with a lot of garlic that's been sauteed and oil it's amazing and amazingly delicious so i'm just sauteing the garlic until the aroma is very very strong and powerful but make sure not to burn the garlic and then i put all of that sauteed garlic into the rice and chickpea dish the sirkanis give it a good mix and it is fully ready for shabbat now that

everything is fully cooked i put the hot plate onto my stovetop place all of my meals on top of it so they could stay nice and warm until we're ready to eat it when my husband gets home from school for the shabbat salads this week i have the purple cabbage salad carrot salad tuna fish salad egg salad and a pickled cucumber salad i'm going to be dressing all of them up placing them into their containers and putting them into the refrigerator one of the last things that i do is fill up my water urn because

we don't turn on any sort of electricity on shabbat we either have timers to do things for us or we just have things prepared for us in advance like using a hot plate or a hot water urn um as you can see like i said earlier the dishes never end in my house so i'll just be washing this last load by hand so the boys are off to shul my daughter and i are just placing the final touches to our shabbat table and house and i'm about to light the shabbos candles but i'll leave you
