What Blessings Are Said for Spaghetti / Noodles?
Question
Hello! I wanted to know what blessings are said for spaghetti/noodles, regular Bamba, chocolate-filled Bamba, Bisli, chicken nuggets with corn that is ground inside and when it is not ground, chicken nuggets with breading, breakfast cereals made from oats, corn, and wheat (together), and cornflakes (dried corn). Thank you...
Answer
Hello and blessings,
The blessing for spaghetti or noodles is mezonot. For all types of bamba, it is shehakol. For bisli, it is mezonot. For chicken nuggets with corn, the blessing is shehakol for all types. For chicken nuggets with breading, according to most poskim it is shehakol, although some are strict and eat something that has the blessing of mezonot before eating the nuggets, in order to cover the blessing of mezonot. The blessing for oats cereal is mezonot. For cornflakes by Telma, the blessing is shehakol, and for Kellogg's, the blessing is ha’adama.
With blessings,
