Question
We have a hand blender that we used to blend hot dairy soups in a primary vessel, and then we mistakenly placed it in the meat dishwasher with meat utensils. The blades of the blender are made of metal and the body is plastic. Is it now permissible to use the blender for cold or hot foods, and if not, is there a way to kosher it? Thank you very much.
Answer
Shalom Rav
One should not use a meat dishwasher for dairy utensils, but if you did, the utensil is not prohibited retroactively.
