Pesach Issues: Chametz Mixtures, Garlic, and Mei Peiros

From: Rabbi Moshe Sofer

To: Rabbi Yitzchak Nosson

Description

Rabbi Yitzchak Nosson poses questions about leavened wheat mixed with good wheat, nullifying garlic's sharpness in flour before Pesach, and drawing water in vessels that held fruit juice. The Chasam Sofer rules that leavened wheat imparts discernible chametz taste making nullification ratios moot.
