Kosher 101: What is a Kosher Formula?
posted by quickosher December 2012
A (kosher) formula is the recipe for a specific product certified by the OK. Each ingredient is listed, along with its kosher certificate, and the method of production is noted. We do not require the amounts of each ingredient used and the information is kept strictly confidential. When a product formula changes, it is crucial to submit the new formula so that it can be entered into the OK kosher management system.
Formulas can now be submitted through our paperless program and are subsequently evaluated by the Formula Department and supervising rabbi.
