Question:
Hi.
Is it considered dying food, if I take my challah and dip it into machbucha (red dip) if I turn the challah red, is that fine?
Answer:
Hello,
It is fine to dip your challah into the red matbucha, because you have no intention to make the challah red. your intention is only to give it a taste, and for this we say “ayn tzvih b’oschelimn”, that there is no issue of coloring regarding food.
Have a good Shabbos
