Question

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

Answer

If the knife touched meat that was not in a primary vessel, the knife is not considered meat, and the vegetables are pareve. If the meat was boiling and placed in a primary vessel, the onion and lemon became meaty from the knife. If there was also lemon juice in the salad, then the other vegetables in the salad became meaty. If there is no lemon juice, you can remove the pieces of onion and lemon and eat the other vegetables with cheese.
