How to Kosher Your Kitchen for Passover

To make your kitchen kosher for Passover, you must "kosher" it from chametz that has been cooked in it.

Passover Dishes and Utensils

Have special sets of dishes, silverware, pots, pans and other utensils for Passover use only. (If necessary, certain year-round utensils may be used provided they are made kosher for Passover. To do so, consult a rabbi.)

How to Kosher Your Stove for Passover

Thoroughly clean and scour every part of it. Heat the oven to the highest temperature possible for 1-2 hours. Heat the grates and the iron parts of the stove (and elements if electric) until they glow red-hot. It is suggested that the oven and stove-top be covered afterwards with aluminum foil.

How to Kosher Your Microwave Oven for Passover

Clean the oven thoroughly. Fill a completely clean container, that was not used for 24 hours, with water. Turn on the microwave and let it steam heavily. Turn it off and wipe out the inside. To use the microwave during Pesach, use a flat piece of styrofoam or any other thick object as a separation between the bottom of the oven and the cooking dish. When cooking, the food should be covered on all sides. Use a new glass turntable that is designated for Passover use only.

How to Kosher Your Stainless Steel for Passover

Meticulously clean the sink. For 24 hours before "koshering" it, do not pour hot water from chometz pots into it. Afterwards, boil water in a clean pot that was not used for 24 hours, and pour it 3 times onto every part of the sink, including the drain stopper. Afterwards, line the sink. A porcelain sink cannot be made kosher for Passover.

How to Kosher Your Refrigerator, Freezer, Cupboards, Closets, Tables and Counters
for Passover

Thoroughly clean and scrub them to remove any crumbs and residue. Afterwards, cover those surfaces that come into contact with hot food or utensils with a heavy covering. Cover your table with a waterproof tablecloth.

Tablecloths and Napkins

Launder without starch. But it's best to just have a set reserved for Passover use only.
