* In Gemara Brachot 36b, Rav and Shmuel say that anything which has (flour from) the five grains is mezonot. (This is known the rule of Kol SheYesh Bo.) This is quoted by the Rif (Brachot 26a), Rosh (Brachot 6:7), and Rambam (Brachot 3:4) and codified by Tur and S"A 208:2.

* Tosfot 36b D”H Kol writes that if the flour is added in order to fill one up then the food is [[Mezonot]], whereas if it’s added as a binding agent it’s not mezonot. Moreover, the Rashba (Brachot 36b D”H Duvsha) writes that if the flour is added in order to give a taste or make the food more fit for consumption the Bracha is [[Mezonot]]. This is quoted by the Bet Yosef 208:2 and codified as halacha by the Mishna Brurah 208:7.

* Rosh (Brachot 6:7) writes that even if there is a majority of other ingredients flour is primary and the Bracha is [[Mezonot]]. Bet Yosef 208:2 proves this from the language of the Gemara. The S”A 208:2 codifies this as halacha. </ref> This is only true when the taste of the flour is recognizable. <Ref>Biur Halacha 208:9 D”H Mivarech says that even though the Taz holds that once flour is added the Bracha is [[Mezonot]] whether or not the taste of flour is recognizable, nonetheless, many achronim argue on the Taz. Mishna Brurah 208:49 and Halacha Brurah 208:7 conclude that the Bracha is [[Mezonot]] only if the taste of the flour is recognizable. </ref>

# The major exception to the above rule is when the grain flour is added only in order to bind, harden, soften, impart a color, or smell the Bracha is made upon the other ingredients of the food (and not [[Mezonot]] because of the flour). <Ref>

* In Gemara Brachot 36b, Rav and Shmuel say that anything which has (flour from) the five grains is mezonot. However, on Gemara Brachot 39a Rav Huna states that a cooked dish made out of beets and flour is HaAdama because the flour added was only meant to bind the food together.
