Question
When eating an apple with honey at the Rosh Hashanah evening meal, should one recite a blessing, and if so, which blessing?
Answer
Shalom and blessings
When eating an apple during the meal, one should recite a blessing, as it is not intended for satiation but for sweetness. The blessing to recite is "Borei Pri Ha'etz" and not "Shehakol," because the honey is meant to sweeten the apple and is secondary to it.
Wishing you a good and sweet year
