With regards to your comment, the rabbi in charge of media relations for Chabad said:

1) The way you wrote is absolutely correct.
2) This sounds more like a stylistic thing that the person commenting prefers.
3) Kosher is a Hebrew word, so there is no absolute application in another language.

Please identify yourself (location, profession and/or affiliation).

Regards.

“Aviv Hayun, the chef, had another problem. The oven hadn’t been made kosher.”
No! The accurate description is Kashered, cleansed of remains unacceptable for that particular meal.
Not any wonder you are a Former FT correspondent.
