kosherize

Render ritually clean

To kosherize is to make something kosher—compliant with Jewish dietary law.

This usually involves specific preparation methods: salting and soaking meat to remove blood, or treating cookware and utensils through immersion or heating to remove traces of non-kosher substances.

We need to kosherize the kitchen before Passover.
