#5083 Kashes on Ashes?
Question
Does one have to dip only the bread at the Seudas Hamafsekes (last meal before fasting begins) in ashes or one should also put some ashes on the single cooked food permitted, commonly a hard boiled egg?
Can one deep the bread on excessive salt?
Answer
Rema mentions only dipping the bread in ashes, but other Poskim record a custom of dipping the cooked food as well; see Dirshu Mishnah Berurah 552:16 n.e. note 13.
