Question
I placed a raw egg on a hot pan and then noticed there was a bit of blood in it. What is the status of the pan?
Answer
Hello Rabbi
The pan requires koshering.
One should wait 24 hours before koshering the pan, and after koshering, rinse the pan with cold water.
In the case of koshering the absorption of egg blood in our times, koshering is effective even for a Teflon pan, as koshering eggs in our times is a stringency. See sources.

According to the law, since most eggs sold are not fertilized by a male.
However, in practice, there is a stringency applied to all eggs requiring koshering.
