One is that before Shabbat one shouldn't leave raw food on an open fire to cook on Shabbat lest one come to cook. This is called [[Shehiya]]. The second is [[Hachzara]]; that is, on Shabbat one shouldn't return food to the fire that was removed from the fire on Shabbat since it appears like one is cooking and not just reheating. The third one is that it is forbidden to insulate food both before Shabbat so that it remains insulated on Shabbat and on Shabbat itself. This prohibition is called hatmana and is the subject of this article. | ||
