Question
I fried an egg and did not check it for blood before frying. In the middle of frying, I noticed a drop of blood on the yolk. I obviously discarded the egg, but I wanted to ask if the pan needs kashering?
Answer
Shalom and blessings
An egg in which blood is found and has been cooked renders the utensil in which it was cooked forbidden, and the utensil requires kashering. However, blood found in eggs that do not come from fertilization by a male, by law, it is sufficient to discard the blood, and the rest of the egg is permitted for consumption. The utensil is permitted. The eggs in our time, although usually unfertilized, are still treated stringently for several reasons. However, leniency is applied in that if blood is found in a cooked egg, the utensil does not require kashering. It is sufficient to wait 24 hours, and it can be used again.
