Question
Is it permissible to cook in a disposable pan on a pot and induction cooktop, where it is unknown what was previously cooked on them, in a non-Jewish hotel? And if the pan has already been used this way, and oil dripped onto the non-kosher pot, do the pan and kosher oil become non-kosher?
Answer
Hello,
When the cooktop is clean and dry, it is permissible to use it.
Similarly, a clean and dry non-kosher pot, used only as a base for kosher utensils, is permissible.
After the fact, even if sauce dripped onto the cooktop or pot, the food is not prohibited, provided the forbidden absorptions are not fresh.
