# | # The three criteria necessary in order to violate the biblical prohibition of Losh are: | ||
## there is a mixture of two ingredients, | |||
## one of the ingredients is powdery like flour, chopped (like chopped eggs), or thick (like jam), and | |||
## the mixture forms a thick dough-like substance <ref> Shemirat Shabbat KeHilchata 8:1 </ref> | |||
# It’s forbidden to mix two ingredients when they combine either (1) because one of them is a liquid, (2) there is liquid naturally present in one of the ingredients (such as a fruit), or (3) one of the ingredients is a thick coagulating substance (such as mayonnaise). <Ref>Shemirat Shabbat KeHilchata 8:1, Shabbos Kitchen (Rabbi Simcha Cohen, chap 11, pg 143) </ref> | # It’s forbidden to mix two ingredients when they combine either (1) because one of them is a liquid, (2) there is liquid naturally present in one of the ingredients (such as a fruit), or (3) one of the ingredients is a thick coagulating substance (such as mayonnaise). <Ref>Shemirat Shabbat KeHilchata 8:1, Shabbos Kitchen (Rabbi Simcha Cohen, chap 11, pg 143) </ref> | ||

For example, it's permissible to mix sugar and cocoa powder or cinnamon. <ref> Shemirat Shabbat KeHilchata 8:4 explains that since the ingredients don't stick together into one dough. Chut HaSheni (vol 1 pg 105) agrees.</ref> | ## If there is no liquid added and there’s no way that the ingredients will fuse it’s permitted to mix the ingredients.
