Leaving a Pot of Raw Food on the Plata From Before Shabbat

Leaving a Pot of Raw Food on the Plata From Before Shabbat
Day: Tuesday
Date: August 26, 2014
Parshat: Shoftim
Yalkut Yosef: 318


On Erev Shabbat one may put a pot of raw food on a plata which is connected to a timer so that when the plata eventually turns on the food will cook. Since there are some poskim who do not allow doing so, one who refrains even though he is not required to is worthy of blessing. On Shabbat itself one may place a pot of liquid that was cooked before Shabbat and cooled down somewhat on a plata that is currently off but will turn on with a timer.
