Question
Does a challah board made of wood, silver, and a glass surface require immersion with a blessing, and what is the ruling for a glass cutting board?
Answer
Immerse without a blessing, because the silver is not significant here, and what is important is the glass. Glass utensils (without a receptacle - only surfaces, etc.) do not become impure, and since they do not become impure, some say they do not require immersion.
