Question
If a non-observant woman cooked, is there an issue of food cooked by a non-Jew, and is it necessary to kosher the utensils?
Answer
In the Piskei Teshuvot, there is a contradiction (see Siman 112 and 113), and in practice, if she desecrates Shabbat even in front of an important rabbi, it is necessary to kosher the utensils, but if she would be embarrassed, it is not necessary to kosher the utensils.
