Question

If my housekeeper cooks something can I eat it? I am Ashkenazi and there is a pilot light that is always on.

Answer

Answered by Aaron Abadi

Only if the pilot is under the pot itself. Often two burners share a pilot in the center between the two burners without being under the pot. & only for Ashkenazim.... AA
