כַּזַּיִת בָּשָׂר שֶׁנָּפַל לְתוֹךְ יוֹרָה שֶׁל חָלָב רוֹתֵחַ, טוֹעֵם הָעוֹבֵד כּוֹכָבִים הַקְּדֵרָה, אִם אָמַר שֶׁיֵשׁ בָּהּ טַעַם בָּשָׂר, אֲסוּרָה, וְאִם לָאו, מֻתֶּרֶת, אֲפִלּוּ בְּפָחוֹת מִשִּׁשִּׁים, וְאוֹתָהּ חֲתִיכָה אֲסוּרָה. בַּמֶּה דְּבָרִים אֲמוּרִים, כְּשֶקָּדַם וְהוֹצִיא הַחֲתִיכָה קֹדֶם שֶׁתִּפְלֹט חָלָב שֶׁבָּלְעָה, דְּהַיְנוּ קֹדֶם שֶׁתָּנוּחַ הַיּוֹרָה מֵרְתִיחָתָהּ, אֲבָל אִם לֹא הִסְפִּיק לְסַלְּקוֹ עַד שֶׁתּוּכַל לִפְלֹט הֶחָלָב שֶׁבָּלְעָה, אַף עַל פִּי שֶׁטְּעָמוֹ עוֹבֵד כּוֹכָבִים וְאֵין בּוֹ טַעַם כְּלָל, אָסוּר, אֶלָּא אִם כֵּן יֵשׁ בּוֹ שִׁשִּׁים. הַגָּה: וְע"ל סִימָן צ"ח דְּאֵין אָנוּ נוֹהֲגִין לִסְמֹךְ אַטְּעִימַת עוֹבֵד כּוֹכָבִים, וּבָעֵינָן ס' בְּכָל עִנְיָן.

An olive-worth of meat that falls into a pot of boiling milk: let a non-Jew taste the dish. If he says that there is a taste of meat in it, it is forbidden. If not, it [the milk] is permitted, even in less than sixty, and that piece [the meat] is forbidden. When is this true? When one quickly removes the piece before it exudes the milk that it absorbed, meaning before the pot rests from its boiling. But if he didn't remove it before it was able to exude the milk it absorbed, even if a non Jew tastes it and it has no taste at all, (Rama) it's forbidden unless there is sixty. See chapter 98 (Shulchan Arukh, Yoreh De'ah 98) that we aren't accustomed to rely on the tasting of a non-Jew and we need sixty every time.

Milk falls into a pot of meat: [let a non-Jew] taste the piece that the milk fell on. If it does not taste of milk, everything is permitted. If the piece does taste of milk, then that piece is forbidden. For us who don't rely on a non-Jew, we need sixty in the piece, and if there's not sixty then it's all forbidden. And we measure it [the original piece of meat] against the whole [pot]. If there was in all that is in the pot, the pieces, the vegetables, the soup, and the spices, enough that this piece is one in sixty [or less] of the whole, the piece is forbidden and the rest is permitted. In what situation are we speaking? When the pot was not stirred at the beginning when the milk fell in, but only at the end, and the pot wasn't covered. But if it was stirred from beginning until end or was covered from the time of [milk] falling in until the end, everything joins together to nullify the taste of milk. Therefore, if it wasn't stirred at all, not at the beginning and not at the end, and wasn't covered at all, if there is sixty in the pot compared to the drop of milk that fell in, it only prohibits the piece alone, and the rest of the pot is permitted (Bet Yosef in the name of the Ra'avid and Magid Mishnah in the name of the Rambam.) And also if it was stirred at the beginning or covered immediately even though it wasn't stirred or covered at the end, all of the pot joins together, if it was stirred or covered immediately when the prohibited matter fell in (Tur and Bet Yosef in the name of the Ri N Haviv.) Therefore, if [the milk] fell into the soup or onto a piece and we don't know onto which piece it fell, stir the whole pot until it's all mixed. If in the whole pot there is a taste of milk, it's prohibited, and if not, it's permitted. And if there is no non-Jew to taste and be relied on, we measure with sixty (until now, the language of the Rambam.) There are those who disagree and reason that stirring the pot isn't effective unless it's stirred immediately after the prohibited matter fell in, and this is our practice.

Se’if 3ג׳

כְּשֶנֶּאֶסְרָה הַחֲתִיכָה מֵחֲמַת הֶחָלָב, נַעֲשֵׂית כָּל הַחֲתִיכָה אִסוּר, וְאִם בִּשְּׁלָהּ עִם אֲחֵרוֹת צָרִיךְ שִׁשִּׁים לְבַטֵּל כֻּלָּהּ. וְאִם מַכִּירָהּ, מַשְלִיכָהּ, וְהָאֲחֵרוֹת מֻתָּרוֹת. וְאִם אֵינוֹ מַכִּירָהּ, הָרֹטֶב מֻתָּר, וְכָל הַחֲתִיכוֹת אֲסוּרוֹת, אִם חֲתִיכַת הָאִסוּר רְאוּיָה לְהִתְכַּבֵּד.

When a piece of meat becomes forbidden due to milk it is prohibited completely. If it was cooked with others, sixty is needed to negate it all. If you recognize it, take it out and the others are acceptable. If you don't recognize it, the sauce is permitted but all the pieces of meat are forbidden if the initial piece was rih-ooya lih-hitchabeid (too important to be considered part of a mixture)
