# For chulent (barley, beans, small pieces of meat and potato) the Bracha is [[Mezonot]]. If there’s no barley, and the majority is potatoes and beans, the Bracha is HaAdama, if the majority is rice, make [[Mezonot]]. If there’s no barley and the Chulent has the Bracha of HaAdama, if the kishka is eaten separately (not in the same forkful), it requires it’s own [[mezonot]]. However, if the pieces are large enough that they don’t come up together on same forkful, each component requires it’s own Bracha. <Ref> VeTen Bracha (Halachos of Brochos by Rabbi Bodner, chapter 4, pg 65, 80, Handbook pg 28), Vezot HaBracha (pg 107, chapter 11, pg 392, Luach [[Brachot]]) </ref>
