What blessing is recited on buckwheat bread?
Question
Good evening, some halachic authorities say that the blessing on buckwheat bread is "Shehakol nihyeh bidvaro." What should one do? Buckwheat is not a grain, but a nut or a legume. Thank you
Answer
Shalom and greetings, Indeed, on bread made from buckwheat (not spelt), one should recite Shehakol (see Shulchan Aruch, Orach Chaim, siman 208, section 8).
With blessings, Hillel Meirs
