Covered Tripod on Passover

Question

It is written regarding a tripod that covering it is effective, but I know that a forbidden utensil cannot be used at all. Is there a source that covering is effective, allowing the utensil to be used again?

Answer

Shalom Rav

The halacha is that a utensil that has absorbed a prohibition does not transfer it to another utensil without liquid.

Therefore, if the tripod is clean, with aluminum foil on it, and there is no liquid between them [-and even if there is liquid, but there is none between the pot and the foil ], there is no absorption into the pot placed on the tripod.
