Stam Yenam

Question:

Hello. If a non-Jew boils dried cranberries in water to make fruit juice (provided that a Shomer Shabbos Jew lit the fire), is there an issue of ma’gah akum or stam yenam? Thank you.

 

Answer:

Hi,

The issues of stam yanom etc. only apply to grapes, because they are made into wine. They do not apply to cranberries.

Best wishes
