Materials that Can and Cannot be Kashered

So, b'makom, have sigadol, we can be makel on that, Ramosh says, on that sea roof of three shitos.

So those are some of the common materials that come into play.

Ten Minute Halacha
Materials that Can and Cannot be Kashered

Now, when it comes to plastic, a lot of times the shaylas are not about high-risk kalim.

Ten Minute Halacha
Materials that Can and Cannot be Kashered
