Question
In what ways should one combine baskets?
Answer
If dough is kneaded in a bowl in a quantity that requires separating challah with a blessing, there is no need for combining baskets, but the separation must be from what is adjacent. However, if dough is kneaded in two separate bowls and neither contains the quantity required for separating challah, if one wishes to separate challah, they should combine baskets. Similarly, if there is a concern that they might later combine, such as by placing the doughs or baked goods made from the doughs in a refrigerator or a car, and there is a concern they will combine according to the law of combining baskets and lead to a mistake, it is preferable to initially combine baskets.
