Question
I have an oven in which I bake meat. Is it permissible for me to bake a parve cake in it and then fill it with sour cream?
Answer
Hello,
According to the Sephardic custom, if the oven has not been used for meat in the last 24 hours, it is permissible to bake a parve pastry in it with the intention of eating it with dairy. According to the Ashkenazi custom, even if the oven has not been used for 24 hours, it is forbidden to bake parve in it with the intention of eating the pastry with dairy.
However, according to the Ashkenazi custom, one can turn the oven to the highest temperature for half an hour, and then it will be permissible to bake the cake in it according to all opinions.
