Kashering the Kitchen for Pesach: Difference between revisions

# According to Sephardim, a dishwasher, which is used with soap, can be used on [[Pesach]] after cleaning it well. It is preferable to run a cycle without dishes with soap. <Ref> Yalkut Yosef (Kitzur S”A 451:11), Yalkut Yosef (Pesach v. 38) </ref>

# Frying pans which one uses with a little oil should be koshered with Libun<ref>Shulchan Aruch Y.D. 121:4 writes that a frying pan can be koshered with hagalah for Pesach. He repeats this in 451:11. Also, Shach YD 121:8 is lenient to allow hagalah for a frying pan for Pesach and cites the Rama Mpano 96 to support this. Although in YD the Rama doesn't comment, in O.C. 451:11 he quote some rishonim who require libun. He concludes that there's a minhag to do libun but the strict halacha is that hagalah is enough. Biur Halacha 451:11 s.v. muteret defends the position of the majority of rishonim that hagalah is sufficient and concludes that after the fact certainly hagalah works.  

* The Rosh Pesachim 3:7 quotes a dispute between the Raavan and his grandson the Ravyah whether a frying pan needs hagalah or libun. The Ravyah held hagalah since it is used with oil and quotes the Tosefta Avoda Zara 9:2 to this effect. The Rosh, Mordechai Pesachim 577, Hagahot Maimoniyot 5:23:1, and Tur 451:11 accept the Ravyah. [http://www.hebrewbooks.org/pdfpager.aspx?req=8922&st=&pgnum=261 Rashba Torat Habayit 35a] held like the Raavan that libun is necessary.</ref> but according to Sephardim one has what to rely on to kosher it with Hagalah. <Ref>Yechave Daat 1:7, Chazon Ovadyah (pg 134)</ref>  

# However, frying pans used without any oil need libun.<ref>Bet Yosef 451:11</ref>

# Pans used to bake cakes with a little oil should not be used on [[Pesach]] because doing Libun on it will break it but still according to Sephardim one has what to rely on to do Hagalah. <Ref>Yechave Daat 1:7, Yalkut Yosef (Kitzur S”A 451:13) </ref>
