A Liver That Had Been Soaking in Blood
Question
Hello, honorable Rabbi,
If after shechitah the beef liver was kept in a utensil that had no holes, and the liver remained that way for more than 24 hours, what is the status of this liver? Can it be said that this liver was “cooked” in its blood and in the liquids it released, and that there is no remedy for it?
Thank you very much.

Shalom u’vrachah
According to the Shulchan Aruch — it is not prohibited, and one may roast it and eat it.
And according to the Rema — it is prohibited, and roasting will not help it.
