Question
A meat pot that is ben yomo in which fish was cooked, and it was covered with a dairy lid that is ben yomo—what is the status of the fish and what is the status of the pot according to the poskim who follow Maran the Shulchan Aruch?
Answer
Shalom u-veracha
Generally, the food is forbidden, and the pot and the lid require hag'alah (kashering by boiling), since in a regular pot the food in the pot does not contain sixty times the volume in relation to the lid.
In an especially large pot with a thin lid, sometimes there is nullification in sixty against the lid, and then everything is permitted, except for the lid, which still requires hag'alah.
