What is the blessing for porridge?
Answer
Porridge made from one of the following grains: wheat, barley, spelt, rye, oats, is blessed with "Borei Minei Mezonot".
Other porridges, such as corn, are blessed with "Shehakol".
Porridge made from a mixture of several types, if the five types of grain are intended to enhance the taste of the porridge, is blessed with "Borei Minei Mezonot".
