Question

A meat microwave in which a cheese pie was heated; what is the halachic status of the pie and of the microwave?

Answer

If the food produced steam, both the microwave and the pie become forbidden. If it did not produce steam, it is permitted. And if one sees that the food reached the temperature of yad soledet (too hot to touch), we assume that it produced steam and it is forbidden. The microwave can be kashered after twenty-four hours have passed since the heating: first clean it, and then heat in it a bowl of water for a quarter of an hour.
