Question
I like to wash the meat dishes with hot water, almost to the point of scalding... My question is, when I wash a dirty pot with actual meat residue, does the hot water make the pot, which was used two days ago (on Thursday), as if it was used today? I would like to know!
Answer
Hello
As long as the water is not hot enough to scald the hand, it is not considered cooking.
[If you are able to handle and wash dishes with it, it is likely not in that state].
