Blessing - Nuts During the Meal
Question
Hello,
If someone wants to eat nuts at the beginning of the meal without accompanying them with bread, is a blessing required, or is it considered that they are eating them for satiation and they are part of the meal?
Thank you very much.
Answer
Hello,
Nuts are intended for taste and not for satiation. Therefore, one should recite a blessing over them even during the meal.
