Question
A meat microwave was used to heat a cheese pie. What is the status of the pie and the microwave?
Answer
If the food emitted steam, both the microwave and the pie are forbidden. If it did not emit steam, they are permitted. If it is observed that the food reached a temperature where the hand recoils, it should be assumed that it emitted steam, and it is forbidden. The microwave can be koshered after twenty-four hours have passed since the heating, by first cleaning it and then heating a bowl of water in it for a quarter of an hour.
