SPECIAL DOUBLE PORTION L'KAVOD SHABBOS KODESH
Halachos for Erev Shabbos Kodesh
1)
A frying pan that is used for frying eggs or other foods exclusively
with oil or margarine (as opposed to butter) and is kept parve may be
used to fry food which will be eaten at milk or meat meals.
2)
The frying pan, however, may not come in contact with any meat or dairy
items, thus it is important to remember when stirring the eggs as well
as when removing them that it must be done with a parve spatula or
other utensil. (See Darchei Teshuva Yoreh Deah Siman 105:60
and Chidushei Rav Akiva Eiger Yoreh Deah 105:2 regarding if a meat or
dairy utensil was used.)
Halachos for Shabbos Kodesh
1)
A dairy frying pan may never be used for frying meat and vice versa,
even if the pan has been thoroughly cleaned and even if 24 hours have
passed since its last use. (See Shulchan Aruch Siman 93 and Taz and Shach there)
2) L'Chatchila it is also best to avoid using a meat or dairy frying pan for parve foods which will beeaten at a meal of the opposite food class, especially if the item being fried is a sharp food. (See Taz Yoreh Deah Siman 95:4 and Kaf HaChaim Siman 95:1 and 96:1. See also Ben Ish Chai Parshas Vayikra13)

Submitted Questions of interest on topics related to Halachos we
covered, as well as other interesting topic and Answers. Taken from the
Q & A pages on the Halacha For Today website.
Although
the answers I give to questions are taken directly from the Sifrei
HaPoskim, and aren't my own, they are still for study purposes
only, NOT for Psak Halacha.
What is the din [regarding the use of] a peeler on yom tov regarding borer etc.
Answer:
Borer on Yom Tov is a very complicated sugya.
Bottom line: A peeler is permitted to be used on Yom Tov. (See Shmiras Shabbos K'Hilchaso Perek 4:10 and footnote 16)
Our holy sages, the Chazal tell us
תנא דבי אליהו כל השונה הלכות בכל יום מובטח לו שהוא בן עולם הבא, שנאמר הליכות עולם לו, אל תקרי הליכות אלא הלכות - one who studies [at least two] Halachos daily is assured a portion in Olam Haba - the world to come. (:מגילה כ"ח )
