Question

A meat knife that was used to cut hot meat was then rinsed and used to cut vegetables, onion, and lemon to make a salad. The vegetables stayed together overnight in the refrigerator. Is it permitted to eat the vegetables with cheese?

Answer

If the knife came into contact with meat that was not in a first vessel (kli rishon), the knife does not become meat, and the vegetables remain pareve. However, if the meat was boiling and placed in a first vessel, the onion and lemon become meat through the knife. And if there was also lemon juice in the salad, the other vegetables in the salad also become meat. But if there is no lemon juice, one may remove the pieces of onion and lemon and eat the remaining vegetables with cheese.
