When to Say Shehakol on Vegetables

When to Say Shehakol on Vegetables Day: Wendesday Date: January 20, 2016 Parshat: Beshalah Yalkut Yosef: O"H: 205 On vegetables that are normally eaten both raw and cooked, such as carrots, celery, and others, the proper beracha is always ha'adamah. On vegetables that are normally eaten cooked, such as pumpkins, the proper beracha is ha'adamah when eaten cooked and shehakol when raw. On vegetables that are normally eaten raw, such as cucumbers, the proper beracha is ha'adamah when eaten raw and shehakol when cooked. One who is not sure how a specific vegetable is normally eaten says ha'adamah, since where possible a specific beracha such a ha'adamah is preferred over a general beracha such as shehakol.
