Question
I mistakenly took a meat wooden spoon and stirred onions in a pareve pot. What is the status of the pot?
Answer
Shalom Rav,
Onions are pungent before cooking and not pungent after cooking. Therefore, if during the mixing the onions were not yet fried and there is not sixty times the amount of onions against the part of the spoon that entered it, the onions and the pot become meaty. If the spoon was inserted after the onions were no longer pungent, the onions and the pot remain pareve.
