Washing for bread, without water - Part II

Hi,

In our previous post we noted one solution for Netilat Yadayim in the absence of water.

The Shulchan Aruch notes an additional possibility: Eat with covered hands. It would be best to do this with both hands covered, to avoid the risk of accidental contact with the food by an unwashed hand.

(Shulchan Aruch Orach Chaim 163:1; Mishneh Berurah 163:5)

Have a great day,
Mordechai
