Question:
I cut an onion with a fleishig knife and put it into a parave blender.
Is the blender still parave?
Thank you
Answer:
There is controversy about this, and many poskim say that there is no need to kasher it. It is however a preference to kasher the actual blade, by inserting it into a pot of boiling water.
Best wishes
