Question:
What is the status of a parve pot if a fleishige spoon was put in it while boiling water in the pot? i’m not sure when the last time the spoon was used with hot fleishige soup/food
Answer:
The pot is still pareve. Since we can assume that the spoon was clean, and even if there was a small amount of meat on it, that would be botil in 60 times the water in the pot, therefore there would only be concern regarding the absorbed taste. That taste is also not a concern since we can assume that the spoon wasn’t used in the last 24 hours, therefore the taste nosain taam l’pekam. Therefore everything is fine.
