Kashering the countertop and sink
Question
Shalom.
I bought an apartment in Haifa, which apparently used to belong to a secular / non‑Jewish family. How can I kosher the countertop and the sink?
Thank you.
Answer
Shalom u’vracha
If possible, you should pour boiling water over the countertop.
If this is not possible (there are types of countertop for which there is a serious concern of damage), it is sufficient to clean it well.
