Question

Is it permissible to use an immersion blender (new) that was used for meat and has not been used for a day for pareve, which will then be eaten with dairy? Is there a difference if it was used for something spicy or not? {I would appreciate knowing where to look}

Answer

Hello 

When using for pareve that is not spicy, the pareve does not absorb any meat flavor at all, and it is permissible to use what you have blended also with dairy. 

However, if you use the blender to grind onions, the onions will acquire a strong meat flavor, and it will be forbidden to use it with dairy according to the law.

Rema, Yoreh De'ah, Siman 95, Sif 2
If it was a spicy item, such as if spicy things were cooked in a meat utensil, even if it has not been used for a day, or if spices were crushed in a meat mortar, if eaten with dairy, it is forbidden even post facto
