Question

Pareve knife was used to cut mild Cheese. Can anything be done to keep the knife Pareve?

Answer

Hello & Greetings,

If the cheese was cold, the knife needs to be washed and rubbed with scotch, and it is allowed to be used again with pareve.

However, if the cheese you was boiling hot, you must do ‘hagalah’ to the knife (making dishes kosher by immersion in boiling water).

Best regards

Rabbi Meir Pinchasi

Attention: You should not learn from one case to another, each case must be analyzed individually. Generally speaking, it's always best to have contact with a Rabbi in person, not just virtual contact. Note that where there is a local Rabbi("Mara Deatra"), one should ask him. The answers are under the responsibility of the rabbi who responded, and not under the responsibility of the website and/or the Head of the Institution.
