Using Soluble Powder on Shabbat
Question
Is it permissible to use soluble powder on Shabbat?
Answer
Hello,
It is permissible to use granules that completely dissolve and to dissolve them in cold water. This is not considered kneading because it does not create dough but rather a real drink.
Regarding dissolving the granules in hot water, if the ingredients were cooked before Shabbat, it is permissible. If not, it is forbidden.
In the picture you attached to the question, it does not state whether the granules were cooked, but usually, this is indicated next to the kosher certification.
