onions?
Question
Dear Rav, My simple mind had a hard time following this. If a person sliced onions with a milchig knife, and then placed the onions into a food processor for further processing, and eventually used the onions in preparing a fleishig meal, has any issue regarding tarfus occured? Because onions, and the like, are a davar charif, would one be required to have separate food processors in order to avoid any question of treif?
Answer
Answered by Chaim Yisrael Abadiif the onions are in the fleishig food then it is no good, but if it is in a pareve food that you are eating with fleishig, then you can eat it. The food processor does not become dairy. You do not need two food processors because it is always used for kli sheni. CYA You seem to be saying that the onions are pareve, dairy equipment. How does something get to be dairy equipment if it`s cut with a cold knife? And if onions are a hot food, wouldn`t they become dairy? You have said before that onions are not charif. As you can see, I don`t know what I`m saying. HELP!!! Please. Thanks, Martin
