Question
Shalom Rav,
When eating an apple with honey, or a small piece (of bread/cracker) with melted butter, does this require washing the hands (Netilat Yadayim) without a beracha?
Answer
Shalom uVracha,
If food was dipped into honey or butter, the ruling depends: if they are in liquid form, washing the hands is required. But if they are solid and congealed, washing the hands is not required.
