Line 1: Line 1:
# If one grinds a vegetable or grain not from the five grains and cook it, if the vegetable is still recognizable in the product then the Bracha is the same the vegetable, however if it’s ground and unrecognizable then the Bracha is shehakol unless it’s still intact. <Ref>Mishna Brurah 202:42 writes that the halacha is if the vegetables were crushed but still it’s intact then it retains the original Bracha, whereas if it’s crushed and unrecognizable the Bracha is Shehakol. So holds Vezot HaBracha (pg 100, chapter 12) and Veten Bracha (Halachos of Brochos by Rabbi Bodner pg 403-4, chapter 22) </ref>
__NOTOC__
==Popcorn==
{| width="100%" style="background: transparent;"
# Popcorn is HaAdama either because the seed is considered to be recognizable <ref> Vezot HaBracha (pg 100, chapter 12) and Or Letzion (vol 2, 14:11)</ref> or even though the seed has changed to the point that it’s unrecognizable as corn but nonetheless the seed is still intact <Ref> Veten Bracha (Halachos of Brochos by Rabbi Bodner pg 409, chapter 22) in name of Rav Moshe Feinstein and Rav Shlomo Zalman</ref>. However, some consider it Shehakol. <Ref> Vezot HaBracha (pg 100, chapter 12) quotes Rav Mordechai Eliyahu who says that the Bracha on popcorn is Shehakol. </Ref>

==Corn flakes==
# Corn flakes can either be shehakol or haadoma depending on how they are made. If made from flour – then shehakol. If made from rolled grits – then haadoma.
==Corn chips==
# Corn tortillas and corn chips would be shehakol since both are processed to the point where they loose their ideal brocha. <Ref>Veten Bracha (Halachos of Brochos by Rabbi Bodner pg 410, chapter 22) </ref>
==Potato chips==
# Potato chips are HaAdama because it’s recognizably a thin slice of a potato that was fried. <Ref>Veten Bracha (Halachos of Brochos by Rabbi Bodner pg 407, chapter 22) in name of Rav Shlomo Zalman</ref>
===Pringles===
# Some say that pringles are HaAdama since the result retains a resemblance of the original vegetable. <Ref>Veten Bracha (Halachos of Brochos by Rabbi Bodner pg 407, chapter 22) in name of Rav Shlomo Zalman </ref>
==Mashed potatoes==
# Mashed potatoes are HaAdama. <ref> Vezot HaBracha (chap 12, pg 99) writes that mashed potatoes are HaAdama and explains (pg 251) that since the texture and color are the same as the original vegetable the Bracha is the HaAdama. Halachos of Brachos (pg 406) quotes Rav Shlomo Zalman, Rav Sheinburg, and Rav Elyashiv who agree that mashed potatoes are HaAdama. Yalkut Yosef (Klalei Sefer Brachot pg 208-214) also writes HaAdama. See also Sh"t Yabea Omer 7:29. </ref>
===Instant potatoes===
# Some say that instant mashed potatoes are HaAdama since the result retains a resembalance of the original vegetable. <Ref> Veten Bracha (Halachos of Brochos by Rabbi Bodner pg 407, chapter 22) in name of Rav Shlomo Zalman, Rabbi Pinchas Sheinburg, and Rav Elyashiv </ref>
