* Rashi (37a s.v. VeLo Klum) explains that the Gemara means that there’s no Bracha Mein Shalosh which is for Shivat HaMinim but rather there still is [[Boreh Nefashot]]. This is agreed upon by many Rishonim including the Rif ([[Brachot]] 26a), Rosh ([[Brachot]] 6:8) and Rambam ([[Brachot]] 3:10). The Tur and S”A 208:7 codify this as halacha that the Bracha on Orez is [[Mezonot]] and the [[Bracha Achrona]] is [[Boreh Nefashot]]. | * Rashi (37a s.v.

* [Why is rice [[Boreh Nefashot]]? The Rosh ([[Brachot]] 6:8) explains that the reason rice is [[Mezonot]] is because it provides sustenance like a grain but is [[Boreh Nefashot]] because it’s not one of the Shivat HaMinim. Interestingly, the Mishna Brurah 208:29 writes that rice is [[Boreh Nefashot]] because only the five grains receive [[Al HaMichya]] because of their significance. ] | * [Why is rice [[Boreh Nefashot]]?

* What is orez? Rashi ([[Brachot]] 37a s.v. orez) defines orez as millet and Tosfot s.v. Orez defines Orez as rice. Bet Yosef 208:7 rules like Tosfot's definition of Orez. The Mishna Brurah 208:25 writes that because of the dispute some say (Taz) that one should only eat it in a meal or make [[Shehakol]]. However, he concludes that many achronim (Lechem Chamudot, Birkei Yosef, Mateh Yehuda, Maaseh Rav of the Gra) agree with Tosfot. Moreover, in Shaar HaTziyun 208:31 he adds that there’s several other reasons why there’s what to rely on to make [[mezonot]] on rice. This is also the opinion of Laws of [[Brachos]] (Rabbi Forst, pg 359-384) and the Halachos of [[Brachos]] (Rabbi Bodner, addendum 4, pg 517). | * What is orez?

* Rabbi Shneur Zalman of Liady ([[Seder]] Birkas Hanehnin 1:10-11) rules that the bracha on rice, when eaten alone is [[Shehakol]]. He writes, however, that one that is G-d fearing should only eat rice within a meal. | * Rabbi Shneur Zalman of Liady ([[Seder]] Birkas Hanehnin 1:10-11) rules that the bracha on rice, when eaten alone is [[Shehakol]].
