| ==Raw wheat==
| | #REDIRECT [[Raw or Roasted Grains]] |
| The Gemara 37a writes that one who chews (and swallows) wheat kernels makes HaAdama. Magan Avraham 208:2 understands the Rambam (Brachot 3:2) as holding that even if the kernels are still intact but the shell was removed and then it was cooked, one should make a Mezonot. However, Magan Avraham understands that the Talmidei Rabbenu Yonah (Brachot 25b) hold that the kernels must be ground and cooked enough that the kernels could stick together in order to make a Mezonot. [Tosfot (D”H HaKoses) and Rosh (Brachot 6:9) agree that once it’s ground up well by the cooking the Bracha is Mezonot. So writes Vzot HaBracha.]

| == Shell wasn’t removed==
| |
| # If the shell wasn’t removed and the kernel wasn’t crushed in cooking, everyone agrees that the Bracha is HaAdama. (S”A 208:4, Mishna Brurah 208:3)
| |
| # If the shell wasn’t removed and the kernel was totally crushed in cooking, the Bracha is mezonot (Mishna Brurah 208:3). An easy example of this is barley in chulent. (Piskei Teshuvot 208:3)
| |
| # If the shell wasn’t removed and the kernel was slightly crushed in cooking, the Bracha is a safek. (Shaar Tzion 208:18)
| |
| == Shell was removed==
| |
| # If the shell was removed and the kernel was totally crushing in cooking, the Bracha is mezonot (VeZot Bracha Birur 27 based on Mishna Brurah 208:3).
| |
| #If the shell was removed and the kernel wasn’t crushed in the cooking, the Bracha is a dispute between the Rambam and Talmidei Rabbenu Yonah. (Mishna Brurah 208:15)
| |
| == Grains that were ground==
| |
| # If the grains were cut or ground and then cooked, the Bracha is mezonot (whether it is crushed or not). (Mishna Brurah 208:3)
| |
| # If the grains had the shell and a piece of the kernel removed, the Bracha is mezonot. (Mishna Brurah 208:15; Aruch HaShulchan 208:17, Igrot Moshe 1:68)
