Question
I cannot have gluten. What blessing do I recite when I eat my bread?
Answer
Hello Rabbi,
There are different types of gluten-free bread. Bread made from wheat starch, such as that from Molino, its blessing is 'Hamotzi' for all purposes, and if a cake is made from it, its blessing is 'Mezonot'. Bread from gluten-free oats, its blessing is 'Hamotzi Lechem Min Haaretz', and cakes from gluten-free oats have the blessing 'Borei Minei Mezonot'. Bread from other gluten-free flours such as rice, soy, tapioca, corn, and others, its blessing is 'Shehakol Nihyeh Bidvaro', as well as pasta or baked goods that are not from gluten-free wheat starch or gluten-free oats. Wishing you a complete recovery and strong health.
